FAQs
Why should I consider upgrading the lighting in my Estill Springs home or business?
Modern LEDs and advanced controls provide up to 80% energy savings compared with traditional incandescent or fluorescent lamps. Besides lower power bills, you’ll enjoy brighter, more consistent light, longer bulb life (often 25,000–50,000 hours), and reduced maintenance. Upgraded lighting can also improve safety, boost property value, and create a more attractive atmosphere for employees, customers, or family members.
What energy-efficient lighting options do you install?
We design and install a full range of LED solutions—including screw-in replacements, recessed can retrofits, high-bay and low-bay fixtures, parking-lot and security lights, decorative pendants, and smart bulbs. For commercial clients, we also offer networked controls, daylight harvesting sensors, and emergency egress lighting that meet current Tennessee building codes.
How long does a typical lighting upgrade take in Estill Springs?
Most residential projects are completed in a single day, while small retail or office retrofits take one to three days. Larger commercial or industrial spaces can run a week or more, depending on fixture counts and ceiling height. We conduct an on-site survey first, then schedule work to minimize disruption—often after hours or during planned downtime.
Will new LED fixtures work with my existing wiring and dimmer switches?
In many cases, yes. LEDs run on standard 120-volt or 277-volt circuits, so your existing wiring is usually compatible. However, some older dimmers are not LED-rated and may cause flicker or shortened lamp life. During our assessment we test your current controls and, if needed, replace incompatible dimmers with modern, low-voltage or TRIAC/ELV models that provide smooth, flicker-free dimming.
Can lighting upgrades lower my utility bills and qualify for incentives?
Absolutely. Typical LED retrofits cut lighting energy costs 40–70%. The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) and local utility Middle Tennessee Electric often offer prescriptive rebates for qualifying LED fixtures and controls. We handle all paperwork, photometric documentation, and post-installation verification so you receive every dollar you’re entitled to.
Do I need permits or inspections for a lighting upgrade in Franklin County, TN?
Minor one-for-one bulb swaps rarely need a permit, but new circuits, emergency lighting, or major fixture replacements do. We coordinate with the Franklin County Building & Codes Department to pull any required electrical permits and schedule final inspections. All work is performed by licensed, bonded, and insured electricians who follow the 2020 National Electrical Code adopted locally.
