FAQs
What are the main benefits of upgrading to energy-efficient LED lighting in our Kodak facility?
LED upgrades cut energy consumption by 50–75 %, lower maintenance costs because lamps last 50,000–100,000 hours, improve light quality and color rendering, and reduce heat load on HVAC systems. In a commercial or industrial setting this typically leads to payback periods of 1–3 years and a substantial long-term reduction in operating expenses.
Will lighting upgrades qualify for utility rebates or tax incentives in the Kodak area?
Yes. RG&E and National Grid both offer prescriptive and custom incentives for qualified LED fixtures, controls, and delamping projects in Monroe County. Our team will perform a lighting audit, calculate energy savings with approved software, and prepare all rebate documentation. We also check current Federal EPAct 179D tax deductions and NYSERDA programs to maximize your total incentive package.
How disruptive is the installation process for an occupied building?
We schedule work in phases to limit downtime, often during off-hours or plant shutdown windows. Most fixtures can be retrofitted in place, so ceilings and wiring remain largely untouched. Our crews follow strict safety and dust-containment protocols, and we coordinate with your facility manager to ensure critical production lines or office areas remain operational.
Can we integrate smart controls such as occupancy sensors or daylight harvesting with the new LEDs?
Absolutely. Modern LED drivers are compatible with 0–10 V dimming, DALI, and wireless control platforms. We can layer in occupancy sensors, photocells, time-clock scheduling, and networked control software to fine-tune light levels and capture an additional 15–40 % energy savings. These systems also generate usage data for reporting and preventive maintenance.
What kind of return on investment (ROI) should we expect, and how is it calculated?
ROI depends on your current wattage, operating hours, electric rate, and available incentives. For most Kodak-area commercial projects, clients see simple paybacks of 18–36 months and internal rates of return (IRR) exceeding 25 %. We provide a detailed proposal that lists existing vs. proposed wattage, annual kWh savings, utility rebates, maintenance savings, project cost, and calculated financial metrics so you can make an informed decision.
Are the new fixtures covered by a warranty, and who handles service issues?
All specified luminaires come with a manufacturer’s warranty of 5–10 years covering LEDs, drivers, and housing. Controls typically carry a 5-year warranty. Our company is the single point of contact: if a failure occurs, we handle the RMA process, supply replacement parts, and perform on-site labor at no additional charge during the first year after installation.
