Proven Performance
Why Upgrade Your Home or Business to LED?
Upgrading outdated incandescent and fluorescent fixtures to LED delivers immediate safety enhancements, drastic operational savings, and superior visual clarity.
Up to 80% Energy Reduction
LEDs consume a small fraction of the wattage drawn by halogen and incandescent bulbs. A 12-watt LED generates the equivalent lumens of a 75-watt incandescent, creating immediate utility savings.
Reduced Fire & Heat Hazards
Traditional halogen recessed pots reach temperatures in excess of 200°C (392°F), baking ceiling insulation and posing fire risks. LEDs operate cool to the touch, drastically reducing thermal load on your HVAC.
25,000–50,000 Hour Lifespan
Forget climbing tall ladders to change burned-out bulbs every few months. Quality solid-state LED fixtures run reliably for 15 to 20+ years under typical daily household usage.
High Color Rendering (90+ CRI)
Modern high-CRI LEDs render true colors in food, wood finishes, and paint. Enjoy vibrant, natural lighting in kitchens, vanities, and display areas without harsh green or yellow fluorescent casts.
Smooth, Flicker-Free Dimming
We pair your fixtures with genuine reverse-phase or forward-phase LED dimmers, preventing the frustrating hums, buzzing, and strobing common with mismatched DIY dimmer switches.
Freed-Up Circuit Capacity
By lowering the lighting wattage across your home, you free up valuable electrical capacity on your circuit breakers, eliminating nuisance trips and extending your system's headroom.

Helpful Answers
LED Lighting FAQs
Why do my new LED lights flicker or buzz when dimmed?
LED flickering and audible buzzing almost always stem from incompatible legacy dimmer switches. Older rheostat dimmers were designed for high-wattage resistive incandescent loads (60W-600W). Because modern LEDs draw very low wattage (typically 8W-15W), older dimmers chop the AC current erratically. A.T. Electric LLC upgrades your switches to solid-state LED-rated digital dimmers, eliminating all buzzing and strobing.
Can you retrofit my existing metal recessed "can" lights to modern LEDs?
Yes. We install high-efficiency LED retrofit kits that snap directly into your existing 4-inch, 5-inch, or 6-inch recessed metal housings using torsion springs and E26 screw-in adapters. The new trim creates an airtight ceiling seal, preventing conditioned room air from leaking into your attic and delivering clean, flush-mount appearance.
What is the difference between ballast-bypass (Type B) and plug-and-play (Type A) commercial tubes?
Type A (plug-and-play) tubes still rely on the old fluorescent electronic ballast inside the fixture, meaning when the ballast eventually dies, the lights go out. A.T. Electric LLC recommends Type B (ballast-bypass) retrofits. We remove the old failure-prone ballast entirely and wire 120V line voltage directly to non-shunted sockets, permanently eliminating ballast replacement costs and hums.
How much money does switching to LED lighting really save?
A typical single-family home running 30 to 40 incandescent or halogen bulbs uses 2,000 to 2,500 watts of electrical power when lights are on. Converting to LED reduces that total load to approximately 300 to 400 watts—an immediate 80% to 85% reduction in lighting electricity costs. Additionally, because LEDs emit virtually no infrared heat, your air conditioner uses less energy keeping your home cool in the Texas summer.
Can canless wafer LED downlights be installed under ceiling joists?
Yes. Unlike traditional bulky metal cans that require 6 to 8 inches of cavity depth, canless wafer LEDs are only 1/2-inch deep. They can be installed directly underneath wood ceiling framing members and HVAC ductwork without needing to modify framing or compromise structural integrity.
