- Ceiling FansCeiling fans save you energy in both summer and winter. In summer, running a ceiling fan creates "wind-chill" on your skin. If run counter-clockwise (to avoid pulling warm air down from the ceiling), it lowers the temperature for occupants by one or two degrees. These degrees can be "bought" for less energy than with an air conditioner. And, of course, as the fan cools you rather than the air, it need only be run when you're in the room.
- Wall HangingA flush mounted lighting projector for wall hanging art illumination. This type of projector has a piece of copper between the lamp and the art, which when cut to size, allows the light to fall only on the painting and not on the frame or wall.

- Landscape LightingOne of the most unique installations we've done with landscape lighting to date is this fiber optic ring which was installed around the inner rim of the pool beneath the lip of the coping. It is powered by four LED light boxes and glows like neon at night. It carries no electrical current in the fiber itself, and is perfectly safe inside of a pool.

- Garage Door Repair/ReplacementThe need for surge protection has increased dramatically. This is because many electronic devices can be damaged by surges. Electronic devices sensitive to power surges occur in: security systems, computers, printers, FAX machines, telephones, small appliances, microwave ovens, refrigerators, stereos, garage door openers, and low-voltage lighting systems.
- InsulationAttic exhaust fans save energy in summer. In summer heat, the temperature in an attic can exceed 120 degree F. Heat from the attic can radiate through wood and insulation into top floor bedrooms while the air conditioning is working hard to keep them cool! An attic exhaust fan can keep your attic 20 to 30 degrees cooler and cut your air conditioning bill. Many homeowners use gable-mounted fans.
