LED Lighting Upgrades · Chattanooga, TN — LED lighting upgrades that look better and cost less to run
Brighter kitchens, warmer living rooms, safer driveways — and a smaller power bill. VoltWise Electric plans and installs LED lighting for Chattanooga-area homes and businesses.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, residential LED lighting uses at least 75% less energy and lasts up to 25 times longer than incandescent lighting. Swapping bulbs is a start — the real upgrade is lighting that's planned: the right fixtures in the right places, on controls that match how you use each room.
We handle everything from a single room of recessed lights to whole-house conversions, including the dimmers and drivers that keep LEDs from flickering or buzzing.

FAQ
LED Lighting Upgrades: common questions
Will my existing dimmers work with LED bulbs?
Sometimes, but many older dimmers were designed for incandescent loads and make LEDs flicker, buzz or dim unevenly. We replace them with dimmers rated for your LED fixtures.
How much can LED lighting save?
The U.S. Department of Energy says residential LEDs use at least 75% less energy than incandescent lighting and last up to 25 times longer. Your actual savings depend on how many lights you convert and how long they run each day.
Can you add recessed lights to a finished ceiling?
In most cases, yes. Modern LED wafer lights need very little ceiling depth, and the wiring can usually be run through the existing ceiling with minimal patching.
What color temperature should I choose?
Warm white (about 2700K–3000K) feels cozy in living rooms and bedrooms; neutral to cool white (3500K–4000K) works well in kitchens, garages and workspaces. We'll help you choose and keep it consistent from room to room.
