FAQs
What types of lighting upgrades do you offer in McDonald to improve energy efficiency?
We provide comprehensive LED retrofits, high-efficiency fixture replacements, smart lighting controls (such as motion sensors, daylight harvesting, and programmable dimmers), and complete redesigns to optimise light levels while reducing electricity use. Our services cover residential, commercial, and industrial properties throughout McDonald and the surrounding region.
How much can I expect to save by upgrading to energy-efficient lighting?
Most homes and businesses see energy savings of 50–75% on their lighting portion of the electricity bill after switching from incandescent, halogen, or older fluorescent systems to modern LEDs with smart controls. Payback periods typically range from 1 to 3 years, depending on operating hours, local electricity rates, and available rebates.
Are there rebates or incentives available in McDonald for lighting upgrades?
Yes. Eligible projects can access state energy-efficiency programs, utility rebates, and occasional federal tax incentives. We stay current with all incentive schemes in McDonald and handle the paperwork to ensure you receive the maximum available financial assistance, which can cover 10–40% of project costs.
Will LED lighting affect the quality or colour of the light in my space?
Modern LEDs come in a wide range of colour temperatures (from warm 2700 K to cool 5000 K) and high Colour Rendering Index (CRI) values above 90. This means you can match or improve upon the look and feel of your existing lighting while enjoying greater efficiency and longevity. We provide product samples and photometric layouts so you can see the results before installation.
How disruptive is the installation process for a lighting upgrade?
Our licensed electricians schedule work around your operations to minimise downtime. For most LED retrofits, we can use existing wiring and fixtures, reducing the need for structural changes. Residential projects usually finish in a day, while small commercial jobs take 1–3 days. Larger facilities are phased to keep critical areas lit and operational at all times.
What ongoing maintenance is required after upgrading to energy-efficient lighting?
LEDs typically last 50,000–100,000 hours—several years of normal use—so lamp replacements are infrequent. Smart controls are designed for low maintenance and can be monitored remotely. We offer optional maintenance plans that include annual system checks, firmware updates for controls, and rapid replacement under warranty if any component fails.
