Reasons to Consider LED Lighting
When selecting outdoor lights, many property owners choose LED lighting. Light emitting diode (LED) technology offers strong energy efficiency and flexibility for many outdoor applications. LED lighting is now a common choice for residential yards and large commercial lots because of its reliability and performance.
Jacksonville’s warm, humid climate can be hard on standard lighting products. LED fixtures resist corrosion and weather much better than traditional bulbs, making them a long-lasting option for homes and businesses along the First Coast. Over time, this resilience helps lower replacement costs and ongoing maintenance, even during storm seasons and exposure to salt air.
LED lighting offers many advantages, such as:
- Excellent energy efficiency
- Durability
- A wide variety of lighting colors and options
- Less maintenance
- Longer bulb life
- Reduced carbon footprint
- Lower utility costs
The initial cost of LED light fixtures is generally higher than that of other lighting types. However, installation costs make up just part of long-term ownership. Because LED bulbs last longer and save more energy, the long-term cost is lower than halogen or incandescent options. When you think about the total cost of running your outdoor lighting system, energy savings can easily offset the initial investment.
