Year-Round Outdoor Christmas Lights Put Safety First

Year-Round Outdoor Christmas Lights Put Safety First

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Christmas is one of the most exciting holidays of the year! It can also be one of the most stressful with shopping lists to check off and menus to prepare. With the shorter nights and the treacherous weather, more drivers on the road can make late December in Canada a dangerous place! The excitement of the Christmas holiday is the preparation involved for the big day and that includes decorating. Inside and out, our homes and businesses get into the yule tide spirit with tinsel, trees and lights. On the down side, installing Christmas lights is a dangerous activity and leads to a high rate of emergency room visits over the holidays. Doctors see a surge in head traumas over the holidays as patients fall off of extension ladders or roof tops. A sombre topic for a joyous time of year, but a reality none the less. There is a safer option for homeowners who want to avoid climbing that ladder next Christmas, but still enjoy the beauty of a Christmas themed light show. The permanent solution lies with LED strip lights to alleviate these Christmas safety concerns.

Professional LED lighting companies can install year-round outdoor Christmas lights for any home or business. Virtually invisible until they are luminated, LED strip lights puts on a festive and inviting show for all the neighbourhood to see! Avoid rigging complicated extension cord systems that cause electrical and trip hazards. Year-round Christmas lights are easy to turn on and off with a simple smartphone app. Determine what type of pattern and colours your home will use right in the app. You can keep it consistent throughout the holidays or change it up to suit your mood.


Easy to Use and Energy Efficient

There are further benefits to using year-round outdoor Christmas lights. LED lights are more economical than fluorescent or incandescent light bulbs. Using less energy, LED lights last as long as 50,000 hours compared to the 1,000 hours an incandescent bulb will. This makes your year-round outdoor Christmas lights easier to maintain. They are also more economical. By using less power and energy, LED lights have a minimal impact on the monthly hydro bill. With current concerns surrounding rising electricity costs, these lighting systems are attractive not only for exterior decorating, but for their cost! LED lights are better for the environment , as well and as more efficient. For businesses looking to give their brand a more festive appearance, LED strip lighting will work well on any exterior application, including business. Restaurants, hotels, retailers and banks are all using LED strip lighting to enhance their brand recognition. LED is the way forward for corporate responsibility, leaving a smaller footprint on the environment.

Permanent LED strip lighting isn’t just for Christmas either! Celebrate other annual holidays, (St. Patrick’s Day, Canada Day, Pride, etc.) or a family members birthday.
