Landscape lighting can be installed to enhance the appearance of your property after dark, but it also offers other major benefits. In particular, low voltage lighting, also known as LED lights, can help homeowners save significant money. Here’s a closer look at the advantages of LED for your yard.

Why You Should Install Low Voltage Lighting Outdoors

1. Home Security

Outdoor lighting offers significant security by illuminating dark areas at night. This not only improves your safety as you walk along paths, but it also discourages trespassers and burglars. The brightness of LED lights can easily be adjusted to your preferences. A lighting consultant can help you identify which poorly lit areas should be illuminated for optimum safety.

2. Long Life Span

IP68 and ETL styles of LED lights last up to 60 times longer than traditional lighting systems. You won’t& have to worry about replacing the bulbs for years, which also means less maintenance. Combined with their energy efficiency, homeowners experience increased savings and peace of mind as time goes by.

3. Versatility

LED lights are available in a variety of shapes, sizes, and uses. They’re also a valuable insect deterrent. In comparison, traditional incandescent bulbs are limited. They don’t always work in cold climates or fit small spaces, and they tend to attract bugs.

Since their brightness levels vary, low voltage lights can be placed practically anywhere your landscape needs illumination. During the day, they’re hardly noticeable.
