About this service

Good lighting design has to meet the energy code and still look right in the finished space. We design interior, exterior and site lighting for offices, retail, clinics, warehouses and parking areas.

Fixture layouts are paired with controls, occupancy and daylight sensors, and emergency and exit lighting to the National Building Code – Alberta Edition. Lighting power density is calculated room by room as the design develops, not checked at the end.

We complete the NECB lighting compliance documentation permit offices require, and we can take on retrofits where the goal is lower energy use without losing light quality.

What we design

Good lighting design meets the energy code and still looks right. We lay out fixtures, controls and emergency lighting, and complete the NECB lighting compliance paperwork permit offices ask for.

Lighting layouts and energy compliance

Lighting is usually one of the first things a permit reviewer checks against the energy code. We lay out fixtures and controls for retail, office, restaurant and clinic spaces and document compliance with the National Energy Code for Buildings as adopted in Alberta.

Good lighting design also sells the space: we balance light levels, glare and fixture cost so the result looks right on opening day and stays within your budget.

We provide electrical engineering services in Edmonton, St. Albert, Sherwood Park, Spruce Grove, Stony Plain, Leduc, Beaumont and Fort Saskatchewan, and take on projects anywhere in Alberta. Start a project or call 780-919-9696.
