Financially Sound Lighting

... or what we call Responsible Lighting Design

Lumenistics approaches lighting with the aesthetic of an artist and the financial acumen a CFO.

Beautiful lighting is our passion . . . but our true artistry is what we deliver to your bottom line.

  • Lower Your Operating Costs

    LED lighting typically reduces by 40% to 70% percent your energy and lighting maintenance costs.

  • Utility Rebates & Government Incentives

    Most electric utilities provide generous incentives for energy efficiency which help offset upgrade costs and lower your payback period.

  • Significant Tax Deduction

    A Lumenistics lighting upgrade may qualify you for current year tax deductions - which offsets your use of cash and can bring your payback period down to one year.

  • We Specify Quality Parts That Qualify

    There are good fixtures, bad fixtures, and then there is visually stunning lighting that meets building code, qualifies for incentives, and reduces carbon footprint.

  • Increase Asset Value

    In addition to lowered operating costs, better light quality and environmentally friendly buildings are worth more.

  • We Handle All The Paperwork

    From vendor and parts procurement, to delivery inspection, insurance, building code, securing utility rebate, to providing the documentation for your tax returns.
