FAQs
What types of energy-efficient electrical systems do you install in the New Tazewell area?
We design and install a wide range of high-efficiency solutions, including LED lighting retrofits, ENERGY STAR–rated appliances, smart panels, high-efficiency HVAC controls, solar PV arrays with battery storage, and advanced home-automation systems that reduce standby power use. Every project is custom-sized to your home or business to maximize savings and meet Tennessee building codes.
How much can I expect to save on my utility bills by upgrading to energy-efficient systems?
Savings vary by property, but most customers see a 20–40 % reduction in their monthly electric costs. For example, replacing traditional incandescent bulbs with LEDs can cut lighting energy by up to 75 %, while adding a smart thermostat and high-efficiency HVAC controls can trim heating and cooling expenses by 10–15 %. We provide a free on-site assessment that includes a detailed payback analysis so you can see projected savings before committing.
Are there local rebates or incentives available in New Tazewell for energy-efficient electrical upgrades?
Yes. Residents and businesses served by Powell Valley Electric Cooperative (PVEC) may qualify for TVA EnergyRight rebates on heat-pump upgrades, smart thermostats, and weatherization improvements. Federal tax credits of up to 30 % are also available for solar PV systems, battery storage, and certain high-efficiency appliances. Our team stays current on all incentive programs, completes the paperwork for you, and applies the savings directly to your project cost.
Will energy-efficient upgrades increase the value of my property?
Absolutely. Studies by the Appraisal Institute show that each dollar saved annually on utility costs can raise a home’s value by $20. Upgrades such as LED lighting, solar panels, and modern wiring also make properties more attractive to buyers seeking lower operating costs and greener living. Commercial facilities benefit from improved tenant retention and reduced operating expenses, which can boost capitalization rates.
How long does the installation process take, and will my power be interrupted?
Most residential LED and smart-control retrofits are completed in one day with minimal power interruptions lasting less than an hour. Solar PV installations typically take 2–4 days, depending on system size, and we schedule any necessary shutdowns during off-peak hours. Large commercial projects may require phased work over several weeks; however, we coordinate with facility managers to avoid downtime and comply with OSHA safety standards.
What warranties and post-installation support do you provide?
All products we install carry manufacturer warranties ranging from 5 to 25 years (25 years on solar panels, 10 years on inverters, and 5 years on LED fixtures). Our workmanship is backed by a 3-year labor warranty, and we offer optional annual maintenance plans that include performance monitoring, preventive inspections, and priority service. If any issue arises, our local New Tazewell technicians are available 24/7 to ensure your system operates at peak efficiency.
