FAQs
What types of lighting upgrades do you offer for Huntsville homes and businesses?
We provide complete LED retrofits, new high-efficiency fixture installations, smart lighting controls (dimmers, occupancy sensors, daylight harvesting), exterior/security lighting upgrades, and specialty solutions such as high-bay LEDs for warehouses and tunable white fixtures for offices. All products are Energy Star or DLC listed to maximize energy savings and rebate eligibility.
How much can I expect to save on my energy bill after upgrading to LED lighting?
Most Huntsville customers see lighting energy consumption drop 50–75 percent. For example, replacing thirty 60 W incandescent bulbs with 9 W LEDs can save roughly $300 per year at local electricity rates. Commercial retrofits often deliver a 1–3 year payback when energy savings, reduced maintenance, and available incentives are combined.
Are there any rebates or incentives available in the Huntsville area?
Yes. Huntsville Utilities participates in the Tennessee Valley Authority’s EnergyRight programs, which offer cash incentives for qualified LED fixtures and controls. Alabama Power also runs periodic commercial lighting rebates, and federal tax deductions such as Section 179D may apply. We handle all paperwork, photometric reports, and proof-of-purchase submittals, so you receive the maximum rebate without hassle.
How long does a typical lighting retrofit take, and will it disrupt my daily operations?
A standard single-family home can be completed in half a day. Small offices and retail spaces usually take one business day, while large commercial or industrial facilities may require 1–3 days, scheduled in phases to minimize downtime. Our licensed electricians work after-hours when needed, keep work areas clean, and coordinate with facility managers to avoid interrupting critical operations.
Do you provide lighting design consultations to ensure the right brightness and color temperature?
Absolutely. Our certified lighting specialists perform on-site assessments, foot-candle measurements, and computer-based photometric modeling to recommend fixture placement, lumen levels, and color temperatures (e.g., 3000 K for hospitality, 4000 K for offices, 5000 K for warehouses). We present sample fixtures and demo kits so you can see the light quality before you buy.
What is the lifespan and maintenance requirement of modern LED fixtures compared to traditional lighting?
Quality LEDs are rated for 50,000–100,000 hours—five to ten times longer than fluorescent tubes and more than twenty times longer than incandescent bulbs. That translates to 10–20 years of typical use with virtually no re-lamp labor. Fixtures also run cooler, reducing HVAC load and extending driver and ballast life. Routine maintenance is generally limited to periodic lens cleaning and control-system checks.
