Do you handle parking-lot pole lighting in University Area?

Yes. New parking-lot poles, fixture-only retrofits on existing poles, photocell and timer controls, and underground feeders for new installs. We also re-aim and re-photometric existing parking-lot lighting where the original layout was sub-par.

Can you do exit / emergency lighting code compliance in University Area?

Yes. Emergency egress lighting, exit-sign placement and luminance, battery-backup and inverter systems, and the 30/90-second test compliance that the fire marshal will check on inspection.

Are there utility rebates for LED conversions in University Area?

Entergy and the local co-ops periodically run commercial LED-conversion rebate programs. We track the active programs and can coordinate the rebate paperwork — including the pre/post-install reporting — as part of the scope when a rebate is available.

Lighting in University Area, LA.

Lighting is the cheapest and fastest energy upgrade most University Area commercial buildings can make. We design, install, and retrofit lighting systems across University Area and the surrounding Calcasieu commercial corridor.

The most-common University Area lighting work is LED retrofits of older fluorescent or HID fixtures in retail, office, warehouse, and light-industrial spaces — the kind of buildings that make up the local commercial base. Common Street retail strip, E. McNeese / Highway 14 commercial, campus-adjacent restaurants and retail, small professional offices.

Most fluorescent-to-LED retrofits in University Area have a payback under three years, and that's before the maintenance savings from no longer changing tubes and ballasts. We size, spec, and install. If the project warrants it, we coordinate utility rebate paperwork too.
