Energy bills are a significant expense for many businesses, and if they rise, it can significantly impact the profitability and stability of the organization.

Energy-efficient upgrades installed by Jarrett Companies are a wise investment, as they uncover and remedy energy inefficiencies that cause energy bills to skyrocket.

The Role of an Electrical Contractor

A qualified electrical contractor plays a critical role in identifying and implementing energy-saving solutions in your business with the following actions: 

  • Energy Audits: Professional electrical contractors can detect outdated or inefficient components in your electrical system that may be wasting electricity. By diagnosing these issues, they can provide a roadmap of upgrades that will reduce energy waste. 
  • Designing Efficient Systems: For new construction or renovation projects, it is wise to involve an electrical contractor early in the process. They will ensure that the electrical layout is up to code and optimized for minimal energy loss, without prolonging the construction process. 
  • Installation and Implementation: After creating your roadmap for energy efficiency, an experienced electrical contractor brings the ideas to life.

Upgrading to LED Lighting

Lighting can account for up to 30% of a building’s power usage. Upgrading to energy-efficient LED lighting is one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to reduce energy use, as they use 90% less energy than incandescent lighting. Aside from immediate reductions in power consumption, companies also benefit from longer-lasting bulbs, lower maintenance costs, and increased light quality, which boosts productivity and safety on-site. Jarrett Companies has considerable expertise with large-scale LED conversions in Nashville, ensuring that installations are performed without disturbing business.

Smart Controls and Automation

Electrical contractors can install advanced control systems, like programmable thermostats, occupancy sensors, daylight harvesting controls, and integrated building management systems, that automate energy use based on real-time demand. This ensures that lights are only on when needed, and HVAC systems only work hard when there are people in the facility. As a bonus, these smart systems often qualify for utility rebates and incentive programs that accelerate return on investment.

High-Efficiency Equipment 

Many electrical systems involve intricate equipment like motors, pumps, compressors, or other specialized machinery in order to work properly. Over time, these devices become less efficient and begin drawing more power than necessary. Upgrading to high-efficiency motors or adding variable frequency drives can cut the energy consumption of your equipment, especially for motors that don’t need to run at full speed constantly. Jarrett Companies’ knowledgeable electrical contractors can locate inefficient equipment on site and recommend upgrades or adjustments that will improve efficiency without compromising performance. 

Energy Monitoring Systems

To properly optimize energy use, you must measure it. Electrical contractors from Jarrett Companies can install energy monitoring and management systems that provide real-time statistics on how much electricity is consumed in your company. These technologies assist in identifying peak consumption periods, detecting anomalous power demand, and verifying the savings from any modifications you’ve implemented.

Track your energy usage by allowing our professionals to install an energy monitoring system on your property. Contact Jarrett Companies today to learn more. 

Preventative Maintenance

Jarrett Companies offers the following maintenance services to ensure your electrical systems work properly for years after installation. 

  • Routine Inspections: Our electrical contractors will check connections, wiring integrity, and equipment performance to ensure everything is working properly. 
  • Cleaning and Servicing: Dusty or dirty electrical components can overheat and operate inefficiently. Regular cleaning of panels, breaker boxes, and motor control centers will ensure proper cooling and efficient operation. Replacing or servicing old parts, lighting fixtures, and electrical ballasts can also restore equipment to optimal efficiency. 
  • Calibration of Controls and Systems: If your building uses sensors, timers, or automated controls, these require periodic calibration. A mis-calibrated sensor or timer may leave lights on longer than necessary, or keep lights on indefinitely. Ensuring that everything is properly calibrated means your energy-saving devices save you the maximum amount of energy.
