LED Lighting Installation
LED or light-emitting diode lighting is an affordable and energy-efficient way to increase the lighting in your home. Most homeowners experience a savings of nearly 80% on their energy bill after installing LED lights.
LED lights are a great solution for high traffic areas where lights may be on continuously such as lobbies and parking garages. But they are also a great choice in homes where a little extra lighting is needed such as a closet and drawers. LED lights provide effective and bright light that makes it easier to see in smaller spaces or dimmed to enjoy soft ambient light. They are also easily adjustable and can be positioned in customized ways to get maximum brightness.
Pot Lights Installation
Pot lights or recessed lights are some of the most popular ways to improve lighting in your home. Designed to be embedded in the ceiling they seamlessly blend into the room without the need for hanging lights or chandeliers. Most pot lights work with traditional lightbulb options such as halogen, incandescent, and fluorescent. Pot lights can be programmed to be dimmed by remote or switch and can usually be installed within a day or so, making them a quick and affordable lighting solution.
Accent Lighting Installation
Accent lighting sets the mood for your room. It can be modern, classical, or retro. Ontime Electric has a large selection of accent lighting options to help you create the space you have always wanted. Accent lighting allows you to get creative, from lighting around your kitchen workspace to elegant chandelier fixtures over your dining table, accent lighting is the perfect way to give a room character
Our team of expert lighting installation technicians can also help increase your curb appeal by adding accent lighting around your homes, such as patio lights, garden lights, or floodlights. Whatever your design idea, Ontime Electric can create the look you desire.
Ballasts Installation
Ballast installation can be tricky. Often requiring the removal of shades and carefully replacing the burnt-out bulb, it is a smart choice to have a professional take care of ballast installation. Our team comes prepared with all the necessary equipment to reach your ballasts and safely remove the existing bulb. We then replace it with a new one and install the protective shades again. Remember even a small bump can cause a ballast to explode, so always check with an expert before doing the removal yourself.
Dimmers Installation
Dimming the lights while enjoying a nice meal after a long day’s work is the perfect way to end the day. Dimmers are also a great choice for other gathering places in your home such as media rooms or when you want to escape the world while soaking in a relaxing tub. Most light switches can be reconfigured to dimmer switches quickly and affordably. Ontime Electric can also retrofit your home with remote control and programmable dimmers that let you easily transition from bright light to subtle light in seconds.
Timers Installation
Timers are an affordable and effective way to provide added security for your home. Your Ontime Electric technician will review your existing lighting design and then put together a plan that incorporates times that can be programmed to your specifications. Timers can be connected to interior and exterior lighting so you can enjoy the safety advantages of timers around your entire home.
Track Lighting Installation
Track lighting allows you to take advantage of multi-angle lighting. A great option for gathering spaces such as media and games rooms, track lighting allows you to focus light in certain areas and enhance the light in darker spaces. Amateur chefs will enjoy track lighting in the kitchen, as it effectively lights multiple workspaces so you never have to worry about missing an important ingredient.

FAQ
When designing interior lighting, there are a few important considerations to keep in mind. First, you’ll need to decide how much light you need, which is measured in lumens. Second, you’ll want to consider efficacy, or how much light the fixture produces per watt of energy used. Third, think about service life – how long do you want the fixture to last? Fourth, take into account the physical size of the fixture.
Fifth, consider the color and electrical characteristics of the light. Sixth, make sure the fixture is compatible with any existing fixtures. Seventh, choose a finish that compliments the overall appearance of the space. By keeping these considerations in mind, you can create an interior lighting design that is both functional and stylish.
Yes, you can install pot lights in a finished ceiling. While recessed lighting is easiest to install during new construction, it is possible to retrofit existing ceilings. The process is slightly more involved but can be completed with the right tools and knowledge.
The most energy efficient lighting technology is LED light bulbs. The reason being is they create a lot of light but use very little energy. In fact, LEDs are up to 80% more efficient than traditional incandescent bulbs. This means that for the same amount of electricity, an LED can produce significantly more light.
In addition, LEDs last much longer than traditional bulbs, often lasting for tens of thousands of hours. As a result, LEDs are the most energy-efficient lightbulbs available on the market today. Not only do they require less electricity to produce the same amount of light, but they also last longer, making them a wise investment for any home or business.

If the pot light in your room burns out, there are a few things you can try before calling an electrician. First, check to make sure that the light bulb is screwed in correctly and that the power is turned on. If the light bulb is loose, tighten it with a screwdriver. If the power is off, flip the switch and wait a few minutes to see if the light comes on.
If it does not, you may need to replace the light bulb. To do this, unscrew the old light bulb and screw in a new one of the same wattage. Once you have done this, turn on the power and see if the light comes on. If it does not, there may be a problem with the wiring or the power supply. In this case, it is best to call an electrician to have them take a look.
