Lighting accounts for a significant portion of commercial electricity consumption and in many businesses, the lighting system in place today was designed and installed decades ago using technology that has since been made largely obsolete by LED. The difference in efficiency between an older fluorescent or HID lighting system and a modern LED replacement isn’t marginal. In many commercial applications, LED retrofits reduce lighting energy consumption by 50 to 70 percent savings that show up on every monthly utility bill for the life of the new system.
But commercial lighting upgrades aren’t just about energy costs. They’re about what happens inside your space when the light quality improves. In a warehouse, better lighting reduces picking errors, improves worker safety, and changes the feel of the entire facility. In a parking lot, properly designed LED lighting improves security, reduces liability, and makes your property more welcoming after dark. In a retail space, the right lighting makes merchandise more compelling. In an office, it reduces eye strain and supports productivity. Good commercial lighting does real work and a properly planned and installed system pays for itself in energy savings, reduced maintenance, and improved performance across your operation.
Saiyan Electric brings the technical expertise and commercial lighting experience to assess your current system, design the right replacement, and install it correctly so you get the full benefit of the upgrade from day one.
Voltage surges are often invisible until the damage is already done. Knowing the warning signs helps you act before a major loss occurs.
If your facility is still running fluorescent tubes, metal halide high-bays, or HID parking lot fixtures, you're paying significantly more for lighting than you need to. The return on investment for LED retrofits in these applications is typically measured in months to a few years not decades.
Frequent lamp replacements in a commercial or industrial environment aren't just a supply cost, they're a labor cost and an operational disruption. LED fixtures last dramatically longer than their fluorescent and HID predecessors, eliminating the cycle of constant replacement that older systems require.
Fluorescent and HID lamps lose output significantly over their lifespan, a phenomenon called lumen depreciation. A system that was adequately bright when first installed may be delivering 30 to 40 percent less light by the time lamps are due for replacement. If your space feels dimmer than it should, the lamps themselves may be the reason.
Parking lot lighting that's inconsistent, dim, or showing its age creates security concerns, liability exposure, and a poor impression of your property. Modern LED parking lot fixtures deliver superior light distribution, dramatically longer service life, and a fraction of the energy consumption of older HID and high-pressure sodium systems.
Poor lighting in a warehouse or industrial facility isn't just uncomfortable, it's a safety issue. Inadequate light levels increase the risk of accidents, picking errors, and product damage. OSHA has minimum illumination requirements for commercial and industrial workplaces, and many older facilities fall short of current standards.
A commercial lighting system without occupancy sensors, daylight harvesting controls, or programmable scheduling is leaving energy savings on the table every day. Modern lighting controls can dramatically reduce consumption in spaces that aren't continuously occupied warehouses, offices, parking structures, and more.
Saiyan Electric provides a complete range of commercial lighting services for businesses, property owners, and facility managers throughout the Downey area.
We replace outdated fluorescent, metal halide, HID, and high-pressure sodium fixtures with modern LED equivalents across all commercial applications offices, retail spaces, warehouses, manufacturing floors, common areas, and more. We select LED products that match your space's light level requirements, color temperature preferences, and budget.
We design and install high-bay LED lighting systems for warehouses, distribution centers, manufacturing facilities, and other large-volume industrial spaces. Proper high-bay lighting design accounts for mounting height, aisle width, racking configuration, and required foot-candle levels at the work surface, not just fixture count.
We install wall packs, flood lights, soffit lighting, and architectural facade lighting that improves your building's nighttime appearance, enhances security, and reduces the energy cost of keeping your exterior properly illuminated.
We replace and install parking lot pole fixtures, wall packs, canopy lights, and perimeter lighting with LED systems designed for the coverage, uniformity, and light levels your property requires. We handle pole installation, underground conduit, and all wiring from the panel through the fixtures.
We design and install interior lighting for offices, retail spaces, medical facilities, restaurants, and other commercial interiors including recessed fixtures, troffer replacements, track lighting, pendant fixtures, and specialty lighting that supports the specific visual requirements of your space.
We install occupancy sensors, daylight harvesting controls, programmable timers, dimming systems, and smart lighting controls that maximize energy savings by ensuring lights are at the right level in the right spaces at the right times without requiring manual management.
We install LED canopy and garage lighting for covered parking structures fixtures specifically designed for the wet location ratings, impact resistance, and light distribution requirements of parking garage environments.
We replace aging emergency lighting units and exit signs with LED equivalents that meet current code requirements, last longer between battery replacements, and reduce the ongoing maintenance burden of older emergency lighting systems.
We assess your existing lighting system fixture types, lamp types, wattages, control systems, and current light levels and document the baseline your new system needs to improve upon. For larger facilities, we calculate existing energy consumption and project savings under various replacement scenarios.
We develop a lighting design for your space, selecting fixtures, determining layout, calculating light levels, and specifying controls based on your space's requirements, your operational needs, and your energy savings goals. For complex projects, we provide photometric calculations to verify the design before installation.
We provide a detailed, itemized quote and identify any applicable utility rebate programs through Southern California Edison that may offset your project cost. SCE offers rebates for qualifying LED retrofits and lighting controls installations that can meaningfully reduce the net cost of your upgrade.
We handle all required permit applications and schedule installation to minimize disruption to your operations. Most commercial lighting retrofits can be completed in phases to keep your facility operational throughout the project.
Our licensed electricians install all fixtures, controls, wiring, and associated electrical work cleanly and professionally. We dispose of removed fluorescent lamps and ballasts properly fluorescent lamps contain mercury and require appropriate disposal, not simply landfilling.
We verify light levels throughout your space after installation, commission all lighting controls, and confirm the system is performing as designed before we consider the project complete. If something isn't right, we correct it before we leave.
Commercial lighting costs vary based on facility size, fixture type, installation complexity, and control requirements. Here are typical ranges to help with planning:
Service | Typical Range |
Office LED Retrofit (Per Fixture) | $80 – $250 |
Warehouse High-Bay LED Replacement | $150 – $400 per fixture |
Parking Lot Fixture Replacement | $400 – $1,200 per fixture |

“Commercial lighting upgrades are one of the few electrical projects where the math almost always works in the client’s favor. The energy savings are real, the maintenance savings are real, and the improvement in light quality makes a genuine difference in how the space functions. We take the time to design the system correctly so our clients get all of those benefits, not just a fixture swap.” — Owner, Saiyan Electric
Southern California Edison offers rebate programs for qualifying commercial LED upgrades and lighting controls installations through their energy efficiency programs. These rebates can offset a meaningful portion of your project cost and in some cases, the combination of rebate dollars and energy savings makes the decision to upgrade straightforward from a purely financial standpoint.
Rebate eligibility depends on fixture type, wattage reduction, and other factors that vary by program. We identify applicable rebates during the proposal process and provide the documentation required to submit your rebate application. Taking advantage of available SCE incentives is part of how we make commercial lighting upgrades as financially sound as possible for our clients.

It depends on your current system, your facility’s operating hours, and your utility rate but in most commercial applications, LED retrofits reduce lighting energy consumption by 50 to 70 percent compared to fluorescent and HID systems. We calculate projected savings as part of our proposal process so you have a realistic picture of the financial return before committing to the project.
Quality commercial LED fixtures are rated for 50,000 to 100,000 hours of operation compared to 10,000 to 20,000 hours for fluorescent lamps and 15,000 to 25,000 hours for metal halide. In a facility running lights 12 hours a day, that translates to 10 to 20-plus years of service life before replacement, dramatically reducing your ongoing maintenance burden.
Yes. We regularly phase commercial lighting retrofits to keep facilities operational throughout the project. We work with you to sequence the work in a way that minimizes disruption, often completing sections during off-hours or weekends for operations that run continuously.
It depends on the scope. Lamp-only replacements generally don’t require permits. Full fixture replacements and new lighting installations in commercial spaces typically do. We assess permit requirements for every project and handle all applications when permits are required.
Fluorescent lamps contain mercury and are classified as hazardous waste they cannot be disposed of in regular trash. We handle proper disposal of all removed fluorescent lamps and ballasts as part of our retrofit process. This is an important detail that not all contractors handle correctly.
Yes. We install lighting controls that are compatible with most commercial building automation and energy management systems. If you have an existing BAS, we coordinate with your facilities team or BAS contractor to ensure the new lighting controls integrate properly.
Color temperature affects how a space looks and feels. Warmer color temperatures (3000K) work well in retail and hospitality environments. Neutral temperatures (4000K) are common in offices and healthcare settings. Cooler temperatures (5000K) are typically used in warehouses and industrial facilities where task visibility is the priority. We discuss color temperature during the design process and can show you samples before committing to a product selection.
