Outlet Installation

Installing outlets throughout your commercial space, is one of the best ways to ensure that you have easy access to the electricity you need to operate the appliances and devices you rely on for your business.  The primary difference between a commercial receptacle and a residential receptacle is the quality of the design itself. Commercial outlets tend to look relatively similar but have more durable and reliable components on the inside. The rules for installing outlets in a professional setting and in a residential setting are roughly similar. It’s recommended that you have a receptacle every four to six feet along a wall in order to support a large number of devices.

Light Bulb and Ballast Replacement

Commercial lighting is specially designed for the illumination of commercial premises. By utilizing different colors, designs, and intensities, commercial lighting options offer custom solutions for various applications, and are matched to the light bulb it operates. Commercial lighting can account for close to 35% of your business’s energy use. If your energy costs are higher than you expected, and you can’t pin down a cause, your lighting fixtures may be the culprit. Fortunately, there are ways to improve your energy costs.

In business settings, commercial ballasts are often required. The lighting fixtures in these settings are often larger and have higher power draw, so a heavy-duty commercial ballast is needed to meet those demands.
