FAQs
What advantages will I see from upgrading the lighting in my Mulberry home or business?
A professionally designed upgrade improves brightness, color quality, and safety while lowering electricity use by up to 60–80 %. Modern LED and intelligent-control fixtures run cooler, last 10–20 years, and increase property value. Businesses also benefit from higher productivity and a more attractive retail environment, while homeowners enjoy improved comfort and security.
How much can I expect to save on energy costs by switching to LED lighting?
Savings depend on how many hours your lights run, but most Mulberry customers see their lighting portion of the bill drop 50–75 %. For example, replacing twenty 60 W incandescent bulbs with 9 W LEDs cuts annual consumption by roughly 900 kWh—about $120 a year at Polk County’s average utility rate. Commercial facilities with high-bay or office troffers often recoup their investment in 12–24 months.
Do I need a permit or inspection for lighting upgrades in Mulberry?
Small “lamp-only” swaps usually don’t need a permit, but any work that modifies wiring, installs new circuits, or changes emergency/exit lighting must comply with the Florida Building Code and National Electrical Code. Lighting Solutions Electrical pulls all required Polk County permits, schedules city or county inspections, and provides you with final approval paperwork for your records.
Can you retrofit my existing fixtures, or will I have to buy new ones?
In many cases we can retrofit: LED conversion kits, ballast-bypass tubes, and screw-in retrofits let you keep decorative pendants, recessed cans, or troffers you already love. When fixtures are outdated, unsafe, or so inefficient that retrofitting makes little financial sense, we’ll recommend modern replacements and show you side-by-side cost comparisons so you can decide confidently.
How long does a typical lighting upgrade project take?
A residential whole-house LED conversion can be completed in one day. Small commercial offices often finish after business hours or over a weekend. Larger warehouses or multifamily complexes are phased to avoid disruption, but each phase generally takes 1–3 days. We perform a no-charge site survey first, then give you a detailed schedule so you’ll know exactly what to expect.
Are there rebates or incentives available in Mulberry for energy-efficient lighting?
Yes. Tampa Electric (TECO) and Duke Energy both offer prescriptive and custom rebates for qualifying LED fixtures and controls; amounts range from $1 to $50 per fixture depending on wattage reduced. The federal Energy-Efficient Commercial Buildings Deduction (Section 179D) can provide up to $0.63 per square foot. Our team handles all paperwork, including pre-approval photos and final verification, so you receive every dollar you’re entitled to.
