HORTICULTURAL LIGHTING · GLOBAL SALES · NATIONWIDE ELECTRICAL CONTRACTING
Visions covers the full lighting path for controlled-environment facilities — from understanding what the crop and the client need, through FOHSE selection or fulfilling a specified package, to electrical prep, in-house installation, commissioning alongside Yield Logic HVACD, and rebate paperwork Visions can help with or complete.
INDEPENDENT PARTNER · IN-HOUSE DELIVERY
Global sales. Nationwide electrical contracting. Visions / Yield Logic sell lighting and facility systems to customers worldwide. Electrical design and installation are delivered nationally by Visions Contracting LLC through Visions Energy Systems. Surrounding construction coordination is in-house.
FOHSE is an independent technology partner for professional horticultural LEDs. Clients can also ask us to install a large lighting package they have already specified — available when wanted; not the lead story on this page.
SPECTRUM · QUALITY · HVACD
Lighting is not just watts on a cut sheet.
PAR is the budget; spectrum is how you spend it. Full-spectrum horticultural LEDs, red:far-red balance, and staged dimming (veg → flower → finish) change morphology and consistency. UV / far-red channels, where the fixture offers them, are tools — not decoration. Tuning per stage beats guessing with a fixed purple wash.
Every lighting watt is sensible heat the HVACD must reject. Higher-efficacy LEDs mean less sensible heat for the same PPFD, which can support a smaller cooling plant when HVACD is sized to the real light schedule. That does not by itself reduce plant transpiration or latent load. Yield Logic stages with the light schedule; lights-off moisture spikes are handled inside the HVACD strategy, not by a wall of portable dehumidifiers.
Quality fixtures bin diodes intentionally, pair them with matched drivers, and design thermal paths so junctions stay in spec. Cheap assemblies often pull lower-bin diodes, “close enough” drivers and undersized interconnects / ampacity to hit a price. The fixture makes light on day one. After regular flower duty those weakly engineered combinations decline — uneven channels, falling output — and growers chase inconsistencies without a clear cause, because until a board fails the light still “works.”
Holding published PPE and spectrum longer protects canopy uniformity and the HVACD load model you engineered around. DLC Horticultural listing is both a performance screen and the usual rebate gate. Current FOHSE fixtures are DLC listed (Visions-verified); confirm the model on the live QPL at order time.
THE FULL PROCESS
End-to-end — not just a product logo.
Room size, canopy, crop stage, target light levels, existing gear, schedule and budget — or the client’s written fixture schedule.
Recommend FOHSE fixtures, or procure exactly what the grower / PE / designer specified.
Load calculations, panels, circuits, controls, hanging points — and a DLC / utility rebate check before purchase when the territory offers one.
Mount, wire, protect and commission with Visions crews. Coordinate lighting heat and schedule with Yield Logic HVACD startup.
SCOPE WE COORDINATE
Independent technology partner for professional horticultural LEDs. See the FOHSE page for published performance figures. Product data sourced from FOHSE.
Design-build commercial and industrial electrical — distribution, lighting, controls, equipment feeds and commissioning, delivered nationwide.
Lighting heat and schedule drive room load. YL 15 dual-stage platforms and built-in dehumidification are sized with the light plan.
POWER REBATES · DLC (DESIGNLIGHTS CONSORTIUM)
Many U.S. utilities pay growers to upgrade to efficient horticultural LEDs. Eligibility usually starts with the fixture’s listing on the DesignLights Consortium (DLC) Horticultural Qualified Products List — often shortened incorrectly to “DCL”; the correct acronym is DLC.
Current FOHSE fixtures are DLC Horticultural listed (Visions-verified). Confirm the exact model on the live QPL before you order. Many unlisted, low-cost fixtures are not on the DLC Hort QPL and therefore often do not qualify for utility rebates.
Example programs (amounts change — re-check before you order):
Find other territories via DSIRE. Most programs need cut sheets, invoices, and often pre-approval before purchase.
Visions can help with or complete the rebate application paperwork for the client.
FOR GROWERS AND DESIGN TEAMS
You do not need finished drawings to start. Send location, approximate room size, light count/wattage (or a specified model list), and plant count. We will map electrical scope, install path, HVACD implications and rebate options.
