FAQs
What cutting-edge electrical services do you provide to homeowners and businesses in Dayton?
We specialize in smart-panel installations, whole-building automation, EV-charger deployment (Level 2 & Level 3), battery-storage integration, power-quality monitoring, and high-efficiency LED lighting retrofits. All services are performed by Ohio-licensed electricians using UL-listed components that comply with the latest National Electrical Code (NEC 2023) and City of Dayton amendments.
How does a smart electrical panel improve energy management compared with a traditional breaker box?
A smart panel replaces standard breakers with networked, meter-grade modules that measure real-time current draw on every circuit. Through a mobile or web dashboard you can: (1) view consumption down to the appliance, (2) set load-shedding rules to avoid demand surcharges, (3) receive instant alerts if a breaker trips, and (4) remotely switch circuits on or off. Homeowners typically see 5–15 % energy savings within the first year thanks to the data-driven insights.
Can you add solar panels, batteries, or an EV charger to my existing electrical system without a complete service upgrade?
Often, yes. We begin with a load-calculation showing your present and future demand. If capacity exists, we install a hybrid inverter and subpanel that isolates renewable and EV loads, sparing you the cost of a full service-entrance replacement. When a main upgrade is unavoidable, we coordinate with Dayton Power & Light (AES Ohio) to minimize downtime and secure any available rebates.
How long does a whole-home LED and smart-lighting conversion take, and what savings should I expect?
A typical 2,000 ft² residence can be converted in one day, including fixture swaps, smart-switch installation, and app setup. Commercial spaces vary but average 3,000 ft² per day. LEDs cut lighting energy use by up to 75 %, and occupancy/daylight sensors add another 20 % in savings. Many Dayton customers recoup the project cost in 18–24 months through lower utility bills and reduced bulb replacement.
Are your technicians certified for advanced EV-charger installations, and do you help with incentives?
Absolutely. Our electricians hold EVITP (Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Training Program) certification and are trained by major charger manufacturers such as Tesla, ChargePoint, and ABB. We handle permitting, load calculations, and utility interconnection. We also prepare the paperwork for Ohio’s TechCred program, federal tax credits (30 % up to $1,000 for residential; 6–30 % for commercial), and AES Ohio smart-charging rebates.
What safety and compliance measures do you follow on technology-forward projects in Dayton?
Safety is our top priority. Every job starts with a site-specific hazard analysis and lock-out/tag-out plan. All wiring methods meet NEC Article 90 through 840, and we use AFCI/GFCI protection where required. We schedule City of Dayton inspections at rough-in and final stages, provide UL installation certificates, and offer a 5-year workmanship warranty plus manufacturer warranties on equipment.
