FAQs
What types of lighting upgrades do you offer for homes and businesses in Harriman?
We handle complete retrofits from outdated incandescent or fluorescent fixtures to energy-efficient LED solutions, smart lighting controls, occupancy sensors, exterior security lighting, emergency/exit lighting, and custom architectural fixtures. Whether you are a homeowner looking to modernize a kitchen or a facility manager planning a whole-building upgrade, we design, supply, and install the right system to match your goals and budget.
How much energy can I save by switching to LED lighting?
On average, LED lamps use 60–80 % less electricity than traditional incandescent bulbs and roughly 40–50 % less than typical T8 fluorescent tubes. In a standard 2,000 ft² Harriman home that runs lights four hours per day, that can translate to $150–$250 in annual utility savings. Commercial facilities with longer burn hours often realize thousands of dollars in yearly savings, giving most projects a simple payback period of 1–3 years.
Are there rebates or incentives available in Harriman for lighting upgrades?
Yes. Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) and local utility programs frequently provide cash incentives for qualifying LED fixtures, controls, and retrofit projects. We handle the paperwork, pre-approval, and post-installation verification to ensure you receive every dollar available, often covering 10–30 % of the project cost.
Will my existing wiring support new LED fixtures and controls?
In most cases, yes. LED fixtures draw less current than older lighting, meaning your existing branch circuits are usually more than adequate. However, if you want advanced dimming or smart control features, we may need to add a low-voltage control wire or replace certain wall switches. During our free on-site assessment, we’ll inspect your panel capacity, wiring condition, and code compliance so you know exactly what is required before any work begins.
How disruptive is a commercial lighting retrofit?
We stage projects to minimize downtime. Work can be scheduled outside normal operating hours or in phases so sections of your building remain functional. Because LED fixtures are lighter and often fit existing troffers, installation is typically quick—an average office floor can be retrofitted overnight. We also handle debris removal and recycling of old lamps per EPA guidelines, leaving your space clean and ready for use.
Do LED lights really last 50,000 hours, and what kind of warranty do you provide?
Quality LED fixtures are rated for 50,000–100,000 hours (roughly 17–22 years at eight hours per day). Actual life depends on temperature, driver quality, and proper installation. We work with Tier-1 manufacturers that back their products with 5- to 10-year warranties on both the LED array and driver. Our workmanship warranty covers all labor for one year, and we offer optional extended service plans for added peace of mind.
