COMMERCIAL LIGHTING

Why LED?

No matter the type, size or use of your office or commercial building, you’ll enjoy two remarkable benefits from upgrading to LED with Smartwire

Revitalized Building Economics

With energy savings as high as 44% (7) and generous Dominion rebates available while funding lasts, payback is typically 1-3 years depending on facility-specific factors
Significant savings on lighting maintenance: LED lights last up to 15 times longer than outdated lights (8)

Increased asset value while reducing risk and carbon footprint

Improve building experience for tenants and attract customers with bright, welcoming environments, and no flickering
Increase safety and productivity, and minimize risk with well lit public and work areas
As of 2024, 137 countries and a growing number of US states have banned or agreed to phase out outdated lights due to their energy use and toxic contents (1); don’t waste money replacing another obsolete light, invest in LED now and let Smartwire safely handle the disposal of your obsolete lights.

“A significant amount of energy savings was projected prior to the installation, and we now have power bills for the last three months indicating reduced power consumption of 35%. In fact, the savings have been so significant that a representative of Dominion Energy Virginia recently made an unannounced visit to our plant to ensure there wasn’t some problem with the power meters. Once he arrived and saw the new LED lights, he understood the reason for the reduced consumption.”

Kevin Metheny, Accounting Manager, Pre Con, Inc.
“I did not realize how much energy the old style light fixtures wasted. Many of our four lamp overhead fixtures were replaced with two lamp fixtures equipped with reflectors. This alone translated into tremendous savings on our energy bill. The math doesn’t lie. These savings are real and we have seen a noticeable reduction in our power bill. Your crew did an excellent installation job, the work was done professionally and they were respectful of our work schedule. To anyone considering this project, I would say the savings are real, the improved lighting is significant, and Smartwire will get the job done right.”

Morris Shelton, President, L & M Carpet One
“Outstanding company to work with. Recently did a complete replacement of lights in our office building, replacing old fluorescents with new efficient LED lights. A major change in the inside appearance and a huge savings on the electric bill. Smartwire reached out to us as Dominion Energy Virginia was offering huge rebates to convert. The team at Smartwire handled everything from start to finish and the job was completed in six days with no disruptions to staff at all. Can't say enough great things about the entire staff at Smartwire. If you are looking for an efficient, courteous electrical contractor, look no further Smartwire is all that. You won't be disappointed!”

Doug Pullan, VP Finance, Richmond Association of REALTORS
"We recently used Smartwire to upgrade over 200 lights in our facility from fluorescent to LED. The new lights use about 55% less energy, are brighter and we no longer have to replace bulbs. The entire Smartwire team was very professional, and performed their work neatly with no disruption to our operations. They also handled the process of securing a rebate from Dominion Power to help recover some of our expense. Smartwire did an outstanding job and we will certainly be using them in the future.”st Item
