Why are LED lights commonly used for landscape lighting?
Short answer: LED fixtures can provide substantial light output while using relatively little electricity and offering long service life.
LED fixtures are the standard now because they give you substantial light output while using relatively little electricity, and they last a long time. That combination is hard to beat for lights that run every single night.
Older landscape lights burned through bulbs and electricity. LEDs changed that — you get the brightness you need for uplighting a tree or washing a wall without the power draw or the constant bulb changes.
The other advantage is consistency. A good LED fixture holds its color and output over time, so the front of the house looks the same in year three as it did in year one.
What we check in Huffman
When we look at a property in Huffman, we walk it after dark when we can, because that is when the lighting has to work. We look at the architecture, the mature trees, the walkways and steps, and the transformer and wiring that feed the system, then we check it against the landscape lighting service page to see what the property actually needs — what deserves light, what should stay dark, and what needs to be fixed before anything new goes in.
