Good lighting does more than just brighten a room. It affects how your home feels, how safe it is, and how much you spend on electricity every month. Whether you're updating an outdated fixture, adding lighting to a space that doesn't have enough, or making the switch to energy-efficient LEDs, the right lighting setup makes a real difference in day-to-day life.
Empire Heating & Air Conditioning provides professional lighting installation and upgrades for homeowners throughout the Rochester area. We handle everything from the wiring to the final fixture — so you get results that look great and work reliably for years to come.
Our Lighting Services

Interior Lighting Installation
Adding or replacing lighting inside your home is one of the most impactful updates you can make. We install a wide range of interior fixtures, including overhead lights, recessed lighting, pendant lights, under-cabinet lighting, and more. If the wiring isn't already in place, we'll handle that too — no guesswork, no shortcuts.
Recessed Lighting
Recessed lighting (sometimes called can lights or pot lights) is one of the most popular upgrades homeowners ask us about — and for good reason. It gives rooms a clean, modern look without bulky fixtures hanging from the ceiling. We plan the layout carefully so you get even, comfortable light where you need it, and we make sure everything is properly wired and sealed.
Exterior & Security Lighting
Well-placed exterior lighting makes your home safer and more welcoming. We install porch lights, floodlights, motion-activated security lights, pathway lighting, and landscape accent lighting. Good outdoor lighting deters would-be intruders, helps you navigate safely after dark, and adds real curb appeal to your home.
LED Upgrades
If your home still has older incandescent or fluorescent lighting, switching to LED is one of the easiest ways to lower your energy bills. LEDs use significantly less electricity, produce less heat, and last far longer than traditional bulbs. We can help you upgrade individual fixtures or your whole home — and make sure the new lighting looks just as good as it performs.
Dimmer Switch Installation
Dimmer switches give you control over the mood and brightness of any room — and they can also save energy when you don't need full light. Not all dimmers are compatible with all bulbs (especially LEDs), so it's important to get the pairing right. We'll make sure your dimmers are installed correctly and matched to your fixtures.
Lighting Circuit Additions
Sometimes a space just doesn't have the wiring it needs. If you're finishing a basement, adding a garage, or converting a room, we can run new lighting circuits from the panel so the space is properly lit and code-compliant from the start.
Fixture Replacements
Have a fixture that's stopped working, looks dated, or just isn't quite right for the space? We can swap it out for something new. Bring your own fixture or ask us what we recommend — either way, we'll handle the installation safely and cleanly.
Why Lighting Services are Best Left to the Pros
A lot of homeowners feel comfortable swapping out a bulb or replacing a basic fixture on an existing switch. But anything beyond that — running new wire, adding circuits, working in your panel, or installing fixtures in wet locations like bathrooms — really does require a licensed electrician. It's not just about following code; it's about making sure your wiring is safe and that your home is protected against the risk of electrical fire.
