FAQs
What types of commercial lighting upgrades do you offer in Jefferson City?
We design and install a full range of upgrades, including LED retrofits for troffers and high-bay fixtures, new LED fixtures for offices, warehouses, and retail areas, exterior parking-lot lighting, smart controls such as occupancy sensors and daylight harvesting, emergency egress lighting, and complete service-panel and circuit revisions when additional capacity or dedicated circuits are required.
How will upgrading to energy-efficient lighting save my business money?
Modern LED and control systems cut wattage by 50–80 % compared with fluorescent or HID lamps. Lower wattage means lower monthly electric bills and reduced heat load on your HVAC system. LEDs also last 50,000–100,000 hours, so you’ll spend far less on lamp replacements, maintenance labor, and disposal fees. Most clients in Jefferson City see payback periods of 1.5–3 years.
Are there local incentives or rebates available for lighting upgrades in Jefferson City?
Yes. Ameren Missouri and Columbia Water & Light both offer cash rebates for qualifying LED fixtures, controls, and de-lamper projects. In addition, federal tax deductions under IRS §179D may apply. Our team prepares all rebate applications, completes pre- and post-installation inspections, and ensures the upgraded equipment meets utility efficiency requirements so you receive every dollar available.
Will electrical and lighting upgrades disrupt my daily operations?
We schedule work around your business hours—nights, weekends, or during planned shutdowns—to minimize disruption. When daytime access is unavoidable, we section off work areas, use portable lighting, and coordinate with facility managers so employees and customers remain safe. In most cases, individual rooms or aisles are offline for only a few hours at a time.
How long does a typical commercial lighting retrofit take?
Project timelines depend on facility size and scope. A small office suite (under 5,000 ft²) can be completed in one evening, while a 50,000 ft² warehouse may take 3–5 nights. After an on-site survey, we provide a detailed schedule that includes material lead times, installation hours, inspections, and final commissioning so you know exactly what to expect.
Do upgraded LED fixtures comply with Jefferson City and Missouri electrical codes?
Absolutely. All products we install are UL/ETL listed and DLC-qualified, and we follow the 2023 National Electrical Code as adopted by Jefferson City. Our licensed electricians obtain all necessary permits, coordinate with city inspectors, and provide you with certificates of completion and updated panel schedules for your facility records.
