We design electrical systems that support:
• High-efficiency lighting with dimming and zoning capabilities
• Lighting controls and scenes to reduce unnecessary usage
• Occupancy and vacancy sensors in living spaces and common areas
• Daylight-responsive controls to balance natural and artificial light
• Smart load control for large appliances and equipment
• Timed and scheduled operation for lighting, exterior circuits, and shared spaces
These strategies help reduce wasted energy while maintaining consistent, predictable operation.
What to Expect with Installation
• On-site consultation & needs assessment
• Electrical load planning and panel assessment
• Structured wiring layout
• Equipment selection and sourcing
• Professional installation & cleanup
