FAQs
What are the main benefits of an LED retrofit lighting upgrade?
Upgrading to LED lighting immediately lowers energy use by 50-80 %, extends lamp life to 50,000–100,000 hours (about 10–20 years of normal operation), and produces higher-quality, flicker-free light. LEDs also emit far less heat than traditional lamps, reducing HVAC load, and they contain no mercury, making disposal simpler and safer.
How long does a typical LED retrofit take in a Harriman commercial or industrial space?
For most offices, retail stores, or light-industrial facilities in Harriman, a turnkey retrofit of 100–300 fixtures can be completed in one to three days. Larger warehouses, schools, or multi-building campuses may require one to two weeks. Work is usually staged after hours or during off-peak periods to avoid business disruption, and we handle all permitting and debris removal.
Can LED retrofits work with my existing fixtures and wiring?
Yes. In many cases we install LED retrofit kits that fit directly into your existing troffers, high-bay housings, or exterior fixtures, preserving the ceiling grid and décor. Where socket-compatible (Type A or B) LED lamps are suitable, we simply replace the lamps and, if needed, bypass or replace the ballast/driver. Our electricians inspect your wiring to verify it meets current code before any connection is made.
How much money will I save by switching to LED lighting?
Savings depend on burn hours and the wattage being replaced, but most Harriman businesses see paybacks in 1–3 years. For example, replacing sixty 32 W T8 fluorescents that run 4,000 hours a year with 12 W LED tubes saves about 4,800 kWh annually—roughly $575 at $0.12/kWh. Add HVAC savings and maintenance elimination, and total annual savings often reach 60 % or more of current lighting costs.
Are rebates or incentives available in Harriman for LED upgrades?
Yes. The Tennessee Valley Authority’s EnergyRight program and Harriman Utility Board (HUB) frequently offer prescriptive and custom rebates for qualifying LED retrofits. We prepare the paperwork, perform pre- and post-inspections, and deduct the incentive from your project cost up front so you see the savings immediately. Federal tax deductions under IRS §179D or bonus depreciation may further improve payback.
What ongoing maintenance is required after an LED retrofit?
LED systems are largely maintenance-free—no lamp or ballast changes for a decade or more. We recommend wiping lenses annually to remove dust and scheduling a driver inspection every 5–7 years. Our installations include a 5- to 10-year manufacturer’s warranty, and we offer optional monitoring services that alert you if an individual fixture’s output drops below spec, allowing proactive replacement at minimal cost.
