Fusion Electric is the electrician to call in Kansas City for interior lighting. While we all know lighting inside any home or business is essential for everyday life, many homeowners in Kansas City underestimate the value of having the correct lighting in a particular room. At Fusion Electric, we can help you improve your home by adding the perfect lighting in each room.
Kitchen lighting is one of the most essential areas of lighting in a home. Unlike other rooms, your kitchen has a variety of areas that require specific types of lighting. The most effective lighting for the kitchen includes three layers blended together:
If your kitchen is lit by a single central light, it probably suffers from harshness and glare while the corners of the room are dim and dull. Because so much work is performed in the kitchen every day, task lighting is essential. Ambient lighting softens lines and shadows creating a warm inviting glow in the room.
Accent lighting is the least common layer in the kitchen. But with more people entertaining in their kitchens, it is becoming more popular. Accent lighting focuses light on a specific painting, piece of art, perhaps a decorative backsplash or even a piece of china inside a cabinet with glass doors. Let Fusion Electric help make your kitchen bright and inviting by installing the right lighting.
Gathering rooms like great rooms, living rooms, and family rooms require multiple types of lighting. The main source of light is usually centered in the room. It can be a beautiful chandelier, a ceiling fan with a light. Pendant lighting, track lighting and accent lighting can draw attention to artwork or furniture. Table lamps and floor lamps typically provide reading light and wall sconces or recessed lighting can provide more light at eye level. We can help you decide which lighting is right for your home.
When choosing lighting for your bedroom, remember that besides being functional, lighting can also create moods and provide stunning accents. Usually, choosing one primary source of lighting and then choosing smaller fixtures for soft additional lighting creates an ambiance you can control. Each light can be used for a specific task such as reading in bed, or together to set the mood of the room. Dimmer switches on the main source of lighting are a great option in the bedroom where waking up to harsh light can be unpleasant.
The interior lighting of a home serves many uses in our daily lives. Strategic lighting puts light where you need it, whether children need light for their homework or for surface lighting in the kitchen to prepare the evening meal or even special lighting in a theater room. Light also creates ambiance and comfort for those nights where you just want to snuggle on the couch with a good book. Make your home fit your lifestyle with the right lighting. Fusion Electric is your friendly source for ideas on how to best utilize lighting in your home. Call us today, and we would be glad to take care of your home lighting needs!
When was your home built? If it was before 1980, your electrical system is out of date. Homes that are 20 years old or older weren’t wired to handle modern day electrical demands. Today, homes are built with a service rated for 100 amps. Older homes usually use a 60-amp electrical service. At Fusion Electric, upgrading the electrical systems in older homes is a common service call we receive. If you’re constantly blowing circuits, need more outlets for computers, game systems, kitchen appliances, home theaters, etc., give us a call. We’ll give your home a safety inspection and let you know if an upgrade is advisable. We cover the entire Kansas City area, from Leawood to Overland Park to Lee’s Summit.
How safe is your home? The NEC (National Electrical Code)
changes over the years. One of the most common features missing in older homes is Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters commonly called GFCIs. They are required by code in many places in your home. A GFCI is an inexpensive device that can save you from a fatal electrical shock. If a piece of electrical equipment is damaged, it can create an unintentional electrical path between itself and the ground. If a person touches it, they can be burned, shocked, or even killed. All receptacles in bathrooms, kitchens, garages, outdoors and in unfinished basements should have GFCI protection. Look for a red button in the middle of the outlet. It will pop out if there is a surge in electricity rendering the receptacle dead until you press the button to reset it.
From outlets to breaker boxes to bad wiring, many
Kansas City homes could use some electrical help. We can easily install ceiling fans, outdoor lighting, or even wire your hot tub. Just give us a call and one of our friendly electricians will be at your home to take care of it. Fusion Electric can handle any residential electrical need you may have in your Kansas City home. If you need electrical upgrades or are just concerned with the safety of your home’s old wiring, outlets or breaker box, give Fusion Electric a call.

While changing a lightbulb is a quick DIY project, replacing full fixtures involves handling live home circuitry. To avoid shock hazards or code violations, it is best to rely on a licensed pro in the Kansas City area to manage the wiring safely and correctly.
A great kitchen relies on three distinct layers of illumination: task illumination (like under-cabinet LEDs for food prep), ambient ceiling lights (such as recessed cans for general brightness), and stylish accent pieces (like pendants over an island). The Fusion Electric team can customize this layout to match your workflow.
Absolutely. Upgrading standard wall switches to dimmers is a fast, cost-effective way to control a room’s atmosphere. Our local trade specialists can retrofit dimming controls into your current setup, allowing you to seamlessly transition from bright room illumination to a soft, relaxing glow.
They are actually just two names for the exact same style of clean, minimalist fixture. These flush-mounted units are highly popular because they deliver widespread, even illumination across basements, kitchens, or living areas without taking up any vertical headspace.
Yes. Large focal pieces like tiered chandeliers or pool table setups require structural support and precise wiring. Our certified specialists in the KC metro area can reinforce your ceiling boxes so your statement piece hangs safely and beautifully.
