FAQs
Why should I consider a lighting upgrade for my Etowah home or business?
Upgrading to modern LED or high-efficiency fixtures can cut lighting energy use by up to 70 %, lower maintenance costs because LEDs last 10–15 times longer than traditional bulbs, and instantly improve brightness, color quality, and safety. In Etowah, where utility rates have steadily risen, these savings pay back the project cost quickly while enhancing property value and occupant comfort.
What types of lighting upgrades do you offer in Etowah?
We design and install complete LED retrofits, high-efficiency fluorescent or CFL replacements, smart lighting controls, motion and daylight sensors, exterior security lighting, landscape lighting, and decorative fixture updates. Our licensed electricians handle everything from fixture selection and photometric layout to safe removal of outdated ballasts and bulbs containing mercury.
Will my upgraded lighting comply with local Etowah codes and TVA energy-efficiency programs?
Yes. Our team stays up to date with Etowah City electrical codes, the latest National Electrical Code (NEC) revisions, and Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) energy-efficiency standards. We pull permits when required, arrange inspections, and specify ENERGY STAR or DesignLights Consortium (DLC)-listed products that may qualify for TVA rebates or tax incentives.
How long does a typical lighting upgrade project take?
Most residential projects (e.g., converting 20–40 fixtures to LED) are completed in one day with minimal disruption. Small commercial spaces usually take 1–3 days, while large facilities may require phased installation over one to two weeks to avoid downtime. We schedule work around your availability and can perform after-hours or weekend installations for businesses.
What kind of return on investment (ROI) can I expect?
ROI depends on current usage, utility rates, and the type of upgrade, but Etowah customers commonly see payback in 1–3 years. An average home that spends $50 per month on lighting could save $30–$35 monthly after an LED retrofit. For businesses, savings are higher when combined with smart controls—often 50 %–70 % of lighting costs—plus reduced HVAC load because LEDs emit less heat.
Do you offer warranties or maintenance for new lighting systems?
Absolutely. We select fixtures with manufacturer warranties of 5–10 years and offer our own one-year labor warranty covering installation workmanship. Optional maintenance plans include annual inspections, cleaning of lenses, and testing of controls to ensure your lighting continues to perform efficiently and safely for years to come.
