FAQs
What advantages do cutting-edge LED lighting upgrades offer for homes and businesses in Thorn Hill?
Modern LED fixtures use up to 80 % less electricity than traditional incandescent or halogen lamps, produce far less heat, and can last 50,000 hours or more. For Thorn Hill residents and facility managers, that means lower hydro bills, reduced HVAC load, and dramatically fewer lamp replacements. In addition, today’s LEDs provide superior colour accuracy, instant start-up, and full dimmability, making them ideal for both residential ambience and commercial task lighting.
Can smart lighting controls be integrated with my existing electrical system?
Yes. We install retro-fit-friendly smart switches, dimmers, occupancy sensors, and wireless hubs that tie into your current wiring without major demolition. Once online, you can control brightness, colour temperature, and scheduling from a phone app or voice assistant. Our electricians verify circuit capacity, neutral availability, and Wi-Fi signal strength to ensure reliable operation before commissioning the system.
What kind of energy and cost savings should I expect after an upgrade?
Savings depend on fixture count, operating hours, and current lamp types, but most Thorn Hill clients see a 50–70 % drop in lighting-related kWh consumption. For example, replacing eighty 60 W incandescent downlights with 9 W LEDs can save roughly 14,000 kWh annually—about $2,100 at Ontario’s average electricity rate. Smart controls that dim or switch lights off automatically can add another 10–20 % in savings.
Do I need permits or inspections for a lighting retrofit in Thorn Hill?
Minor like-for-like lamp swaps usually don’t require permits. However, any work that modifies branch circuits, adds new wiring, or alters the service panel must comply with the Ontario Electrical Safety Code (OESC). Our licensed electricians pull the necessary ESA (Electrical Safety Authority) permit, schedule inspections, and provide you with a Certificate of Acceptance when the job is complete, ensuring full compliance and insurance coverage.
How long does a typical LED and smart-control installation take?
A single-family home upgrade of 30–40 fixtures can often be completed in one day. Larger commercial retrofits vary: a 10,000 sq ft office might take three to five evenings or a weekend to avoid business interruption. We start with a site assessment, deliver a detailed timeline, and stage materials so downtime is minimal. All smart devices are programmed and tested before we leave.
What warranties and after-sales support do you provide?
We supply Tier-1 LED fixtures that carry manufacturer warranties of 5–10 years and smart control components covered for at least 3 years. Labour on our installations is guaranteed for 12 months. Should a component fail, we handle the RMA process, perform the swap at no extra labour cost during the warranty period, and keep maintenance logs so your records stay up to date.
