FAQs
What types of electrical fixtures can be seamlessly integrated with Greenback?
Greenback supports a wide range of fixtures, including recessed lights, track lighting, ceiling fans, wall sconces, pendant lights, and smart outlets or switches. All fixtures that meet standard North American electrical specifications (120 V, 60 Hz) and carry UL, ETL, or CSA certification can be connected to the Greenback platform for monitoring and control.
How does the integration process work for new fixtures?
1) Install the fixture following the manufacturer’s instructions. 2) Scan the fixture’s QR code or enter its serial number in the Greenback mobile or web app. 3) The system auto-detects load type, wattage, and dimming capability, then adds the fixture to your Greenback dashboard. 4) Assign the fixture to a room, create automations, or set energy-use alerts. The entire pairing sequence typically takes under three minutes per fixture.
Do I need a licensed electrician to install fixtures with Greenback?
If you are replacing an existing like-for-like fixture (e.g., swapping one ceiling light for another) and local codes permit homeowner installations, you may handle it yourself. However, Greenback recommends hiring a licensed electrician for any new wiring, switch-leg extensions, or panel work to ensure safety and code compliance. Our partner network can connect you with vetted professionals in most major regions.
Are Greenback-compatible fixtures energy-efficient?
Yes. Greenback’s fixture database prioritizes ENERGY STAR, DLC Premium, and California JA8 listings, flagging less efficient models. During setup, the app highlights a fixture’s estimated annual energy cost and suggests lower-consumption alternatives if available. Additionally, integrated scheduling and occupancy sensors can cut lighting energy use by up to 45 % according to DOE studies.
How does Greenback ensure safety and compliance with electrical codes?
Every firmware update includes the latest NEC (National Electrical Code) parameters for load limits, fault detection, and arc-fault interruption. The platform continuously monitors current draw and temperature at the switch or hub; if thresholds are exceeded, power is cut and a push notification is sent. All hardware meets UL 60730-1 safety standards, and installation guides reference local amendments for Canada and all 50 U.S. states.
Can I control integrated fixtures remotely or with smart-home ecosystems?
Absolutely. Once a fixture is added, you can control it via the Greenback app from anywhere you have an internet connection. Greenback also offers native integrations with Amazon Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, Samsung SmartThings, and IFTTT. You can create scenes (e.g., “Movie Night”), automate on/off schedules based on sunrise and sunset, or link fixtures to sensors such as motion detectors and ambient-light meters for fully hands-free operation.
