FAQs
Why should I consider an eco-friendly lighting upgrade for my home or business in Sunbright?
Upgrading to high-efficiency LED or smart lighting immediately reduces your electricity consumption by 50–80 %, lowering monthly utility bills and shrinking your carbon footprint. Modern LEDs last up to 50,000 hours, which means fewer bulb replacements, less waste in landfills, and lower maintenance costs. In addition, better color rendering and controllability can enhance visual comfort, safety, and property value.
What types of energy-efficient lighting solutions do you install?
We supply and install a full range of ENERGY STAR® certified LEDs, including screw-in lamps, recessed downlights, linear fixtures, high-bay/low-bay luminaires for warehouses, and decorative pendants. For maximum savings, we integrate daylight harvesting sensors, occupancy/vacancy sensors, dimming controls, and smart hubs that allow scheduling from your phone or building-automation system.
How much money can I expect to save after an LED retrofit?
Savings depend on current wattage, hours of use, and utility rates, but most Sunbright customers see 50–70 % lower lighting costs. For example, replacing thirty 60 W incandescents with 9 W LEDs used 3 hours per day at $0.12/kWh saves about $170 per year. Commercial facilities with long operating hours often recoup the entire project cost in 1–3 years through energy and maintenance savings.
Are there rebates or tax incentives for eco-friendly lighting upgrades in Sunbright?
Yes. Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) and many local utilities offer prescriptive per-fixture rebates for qualifying LED and control installations. Federal tax code Section 179D may allow accelerated deductions for commercial efficiency upgrades, and residential customers can claim credits up to 30 % of project cost under the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (2023-2032). We handle all paperwork to ensure you receive every available incentive.
Will switching to LEDs change the look or brightness of my rooms?
Not unless you want it to. LEDs are available in a full range of color temperatures (from warm 2700 K to daylight 5000 K) and beam angles. We conduct a photometric analysis to match or improve your current light levels and color rendering. Dimmable drivers and tunable-white options give you precise control over ambiance, so you can replicate a cozy incandescent glow or achieve crisp task lighting.
What is the typical upgrade process and how long does it take?
1) Free on-site assessment: We audit your existing fixtures, energy use, and lighting needs. 2) Proposal & ROI report: You receive a detailed quote, savings projection, and rebate estimate within 48 hours. 3) Scheduling & procurement: Once approved, we order materials and coordinate installation around your timetable to minimize disruption. 4) Installation: Most residential projects finish in a single day; small commercial jobs take 1–3 days, while large facilities may require phased work over 1–2 weeks. 5) Post-install verification: We test every fixture, file rebate documents, and provide a warranty packet (typically 5–10 years on LEDs and drivers).
