Types of landscape lighting

You have the option of installing three types of landscape lighting:

• Line voltage landscape lighting: Operates at 120 volts (same voltage as most device in your home) and must be hard-wired into your electrical system.

• Low-voltage landscape lighting: Operates at 12 or 24 volts and requires a transformer to decrease the power transfer from your home's electrical system.

• Solar landscape lighting: Requires no electrical wiring, but must be installed in areas with direct sunlight to operate at night.

Not sure which one to choose? We recommend low-voltage landscape lighting because it:

• Is more reliable than solar lighting

• Is safer in the rain than line voltage lighting

• Costs less to run than line voltage lighting

• Offers a wider variety of fixture options than solar and line voltage lighting

Types of landscaping light bulbs

Most Atlanta homes use one of two types of landscape lighting bulbs: halogen (energy-saving incandescent) or LED (light-emitting diode).

Your electrician will be able to tell you which lighting option is best for your home, but we'll compare the two in the chart below to give you an idea of what to expect.

Benefits of installing low-voltage landscape lighting

Installing landscape lighting will help make your home:

• Look better.Landscape lighting allows you to highlight the best features of your home (architectural elements, trees and bushes, pathways, and so on), making it look more comforting and inviting.

• More secure. Dark homes are attractive to vandals and burglars. Bright, well-lit homes offer fewer places for them to hide. Plus, if you have a video surveillance system, good lighting will make it easier to capture any perpetrators.

• Safer for everyone. With landscape lighting, you'll reduce the chances that a friend or family member (especially one with low vision) will trip or fall in the dark. The lighting will make tripping hazards like stairs, pools and pavers more visible.

• More functional. Places like your patio and yard probably get used a lot less after dark. Landscape lighting will allow you to enjoy those places longer and more often throughout the year.

More valuable. For the reasons above, a well-lit home is often more attractive to potential buyers. In fact, most home buyers (almost 90%) want a home that already has exterior lighting, which means installing it could be a good financial investment.
