Low Voltage Landscape Lights

Low Voltage Landscape Lights
Executive Summarize About Low Voltage Landscape Lights By Robert Taylor

Landscape lighting is a rising trend for most home owners wanting to illuminate their homes at night time. Landscape lights are better described as painting with light and is about beautifying all that is natural or man made in a landscaped setting around the home. Landscape lighting is most effective when used in limited, subtle ways. If used correctly low level lighting can be used to illuminate pathways and stairs for safety and security.

Security
Landscape lighting is one of the best security systems you can install. Lighting can be used as a deterrent to residential crime. Lighting has two great uses to aid in the security of your home.

Safety
Typically low voltage landscape lights systems are used for landscape lighting around the home. The preferred light fittings used to create most lighting designs, are low voltage, weather resistant fixtures.

Not just the Garden
Although lighting brings your garden and exterior amenities to life at night time, facade or feature lighting to the exterior of your home should also be considered. Why not extend the landscape lighting to the exterior surfaces of the home as well.

Narrow beamed lighting that highlights sharp features and wide angled flood lighting to pick up flat surfaces are preferred. Installation

Low voltage landscape lights are easy to install even if you've never done any electrical installations before. The easiest are prewired lighting systems. These are low voltage light fittings that come completely prewired and ready to install, with weather proof transformers, sealed connectors and pre-installed lamps. Separately wired low voltage light fittings and transformers should only be installed by persons that have the experience to do so. Normally landscape lighting is added after the landscaping has been completed.

Design
Lighting can hide obvious landscape problems while accentuating positive features. Low voltage landscape lights design are very similar to the design of the landscape itself. Most landscape architects will include a lighting scheme with their design.

Budget
Because low voltage fluorescent light fittings have a lower power consumption than incandescent or halogens this makes them more desirable. Fluorescent light fittings also last longer than any other light fitting because they do not get as hot.

Solar Lighting
An alternative to low voltage landscape lights are solar lights. A very good point is that solar lighting dose not use any wiring or external power source Unfortunately the disadvantages of solar lighting is that they give out very low levels of lighting and this gets dimmer as the night goes on.
