LED Lighting Installation and Retrofit in San Mateo, CA
Screw-in fluorescent lamps were banned from sale in California starting in 2024, with linear tubes following in 2025, so spare lamps for older fixtures are getting hard to find. MC Carley Electric plans and installs LED lighting in San Mateo buildings of every size, including the occupancy and daylight controls the energy code requires on larger projects.
