TRENDING NOW: RETROFITTING OLD FIXTURES

By Clarissa Allison | December 24th, 2014

Watching lighting trends in 2014 has been an interesting ride. “LED” and energy efficiency, once phrases thought to be bandied about by tree-huggers and industry insiders alone, is now quite common. The cost of LEDs and solid state lighting in general has come down faster than it would in a normal competitive environment. That has helped global adoption creep up over 10%. Environmentally friendly technology is an absolute must as the traditional lighting options we’ve all grown up with are slowly being replaced.  In one example, we’ve noticed customers wanting to retrofit old incandescent flush-mounted fixtures with LED downlights.

Sometimes, it truly is the little things that make a difference. When you are relaxing at home after a long day at work, you don’t necessarily want or need full on light. Maybe your eyes are tired and you just want a little light to sit by. That isn’t possible if you only have a single switch that has the lights full on or all the way off. A dimmer switch can eliminate that problem. It gives you full control of the light emitted from your bulbs. It is a quick and easy fix that can be taken care of by your electrician in Pasadena on a single visit. The professional staff at The Electric Connection can take care of your dimmer installation.

There are plenty of reasons you should have a dimmer switch installed.

*Save money on your electric bill. When you have things like chandeliers with several bulbs in them and each of those bulbs is on full power, you are going to run up your electric bill. With numerous bulbs, you rarely need each of them at full power. A Pasadena electrician can install a dimmer switch that lets you control how much light you shed. The lower the light, the more money you will save.

*Extend the life of your bulbs. You can make your lightbulbs last longer when you use a dimmer switch. As you know, some lightbulbs can get rather expensive. Making a bulb last a year or more will save you money while doing something great for the environment.

*Freedom to use your lights to set the mood is a huge perk to having a dimmer switch installed by an electrician. Pasadena homeowners will appreciate the ability to turn the lights down low to create an intimate, quiet setting or turn the lights on full power when it is necessary.

Dimmer switches are an affordable way to create an entirely new look in every room of your home. If you need a new fixture to accommodate your dimmer switch, this is an easy fix for an electrician. Give The Electric Connection a call today and schedule your dimmer switch consultation.
