Lighting & Retrofits: common questions

How much can an LED retrofit save?

Replacing older metal halide, HID, or fluorescent fixtures with LED often cuts lighting energy use by half or more, and adding controls can push savings further. Your free energy audit gives you a real number for your building before you commit.

Is the energy audit really free?

Yes. We walk the building, count the fixtures, note your hours of operation, and show you the cost, the savings, and the payback. No cost and no obligation.

How do ComEd incentives work?

TCL is a ComEd Trade Ally. On qualifying upgrades, the instant discount comes off your invoice instead of you waiting on a rebate check, and we handle the paperwork. We confirm what qualifies during your audit.

Will a retrofit disrupt our operations?

We work in sections and schedule around your shifts, including nights and weekends, so the building keeps running while we work.

Should we retrofit our existing fixtures or replace them?

Both are on the table. Retrofit kits keep costs down when the housings are in good shape. Full replacement makes sense when fixtures are damaged or outdated. We recommend the right fit for each area during the audit.

How long do LED fixtures last?

Quality commercial LED fixtures are commonly rated for 50,000 hours or more. That means years of normal operation and far less relamping than the fixtures they replace.
