FAQs
What kinds of lighting upgrades do you provide in Delano?
We design and install a full range of solutions, including high-efficiency LED retrofits, architectural accent lighting, smart occupancy/daylight sensors, color-tunable fixtures, exterior security and parking-lot lighting, and complete new-construction lighting layouts. Every project starts with an on-site assessment so we can tailor the fixture selection, controls, and power distribution to the exact needs of your home, office, retail, or industrial space.
How much can I expect to save on energy bills after an LED and controls upgrade?
Most Delano customers see lighting energy usage drop 50–75 %. LEDs draw far less wattage than fluorescent or HID lamps and last 5–10 × longer, which slashes maintenance costs. Adding smart controls—such as occupancy sensors, daylight harvesting, and time-of-day scheduling—typically yields an extra 15–25 % savings. We provide a detailed ROI report that projects annual kWh savings, reduced CO₂ emissions, and payback period before any work begins.
What is the typical process and timeline for a lighting upgrade project?
1) Consultation & site audit (1–2 days): We measure foot-candle levels, map existing circuits, and discuss aesthetic goals. 2) Design & proposal (3–5 days): You receive photometric renderings, fixture cut sheets, energy-savings calculations, and a fixed-price quote. 3) Permitting & utility rebate filing (1–3 weeks): We handle Title 24 compliance documents and submit rebate applications to PG&E/SCE. 4) Installation (1–5 days for most properties): Our licensed electricians work around your operating hours to minimize downtime. 5) Commissioning & final inspection (same day): We aim for turnkey completion typically within 3–6 weeks from kickoff, depending on project size.
Are incentives or financing options available for lighting upgrades in Delano?
Yes. Both PG&E and Southern California Edison run rebate programs that can cover $0.05–$0.20 per kWh saved, often offsetting 15–40 % of project costs. Kern County also offers low-interest C-PACE financing for commercial properties, allowing you to pay off the upgrade through property-tax assessments over up to 20 years. Our team prepares all paperwork and ensures you receive every dollar of available incentives.
Will my new lighting system comply with California Title 24 and local codes?
Absolutely. Our designers are CALCTP-certified and stay current with the latest California Energy Code (Title 24, Part 6). We size circuits, specify controls, and program shut-off functions to exceed mandatory standards. We also coordinate inspections with the City of Delano’s Building & Safety Division, so you receive a signed permit card and a code-compliant, future-proof installation.
Can lighting upgrades be completed without disrupting my daily operations?
Yes. For commercial clients we often stage work after hours or in phases, isolating sections so your business stays open. Dust-less drilling, temporary task lighting, and cordoned-off work zones keep spaces safe and functional. Residential customers can expect most rooms to be completed in a single visit, and we leave all areas clean before we leave. Our goal is a seamless upgrade experience with minimal interruption to your routine.
