BENEFITS OF LOW VOLTAGE LIGHTING

Energy Conservation

A low voltage system can produce more than double the amount of light per watt than a 120 voltage system. This means that a lower wattage light bulb can be used to achieve a comparable light output of a 120 voltage system.

Lighting Options

With a vast variety of fixtures low voltage lights can create numerous light beam effects that are often hard to create with 120 voltage light fixtures.

Safety First

Because low voltage systems use a transformer to step-down the voltage, the risk of shock, especially to children is no longer a concern.

Security

Deter intruders by lighting dark areas around the home and also give the appearance of owner occupation when nobody is home.

Extend the Day

Extend the usable time of the landscape. Entertain guests well into the evening hours with well-placed lighting throughout the landscape.

Minimal Landscape Impact

Unlike 120 voltage installations, there is no need to dig deep trenches that can disturb the existing landscape and cause unnecessary damages.

LANDSCAPE LIGHTING APPLICATIONS

Ornamental Lighting

This is the lighting of landscape features to create visual appeal.

Access Lighting

Lighting paths, steps, and doors will allow safe movement from one area to another.

Area Lighting

Area lighting can be implemented in areas of the landscape such as a patio to allow for dining at a table or cooking at the grill. This permits both practicality and safety.

Security Lighting

Security lighting can create the illusion of homeowner occupation, this could

potentially deter any would-be intruders. Strategically placed lights can also be used to illuminate dark areas around a home that could conceal any such intruders.
