LED AND SMART LIGHTING

LEDs are rapidly evolving. Our team has vast experience with this revolutionary technology, and we will consider best options for your property, considering impact, beam spread, color temperature and more in our design. These considerations also arise in our maintenance visits, as we migrate from halogen, incandescent and HID technologies to more efficient and sustainable LEDs. We work to integrate with evolving control technologies – and most of our systems are engineered to operate automatically, employing astronomical timers and other smart lighting control management.
