Q&A: Lighting Fixtures (Seasonal Affective Disorder)
Q: I love your show on CJAD and your website. I am looking for a sun lamp….I have a friend that suffers from seasonal depression. I was told that the sun lamp therapy really helps. Any idea where in Montreal, I can buy this?
A: Union Lighting and Home, 8150 Boul. Decarie has the most extensive lighting selection in the city. You can try calling them and asking if they have it or can order it (it’s not a sun lamp, it’s for seasonal affective disorder).
This family company has been in the lighting business since 1914. Changing with the times, they’ve evolved, still selling all kinds of standing, hanging (mini chandeliers and colored crystal), recessed, track, desk (baby candelabra) and outdoor lighting fixtures, but now have added self-service aisles of bulbs, switches and shades.
From there it was on to fans, address plates, ceiling medallions, door and bath hardware, occasional furniture, mirrors and kitchen accessories. They offer a 14-day no hassle return policy, a repair department and free gift wrapping. Crystal chandeliers have lifetime guarantees – bring them back for full credit towards a new one.
With their Prix Garantis , if you find the same item elsewhere or in a flyer for a lower price within 60 days, they will refund you the difference. Follow the yellow footsteps to the left rear of the store for their liquidation section. www.unionltg.com
