outdoor lighting: focus on savings
01/08/2025
well-designed outdoor lighting can highlight your home and yard at night. it's also important for security. outdoor lighting can be costly, however, burning up your energy budget. these simple tips can help brighten up your energy bills, increasing savings and security.
use lighting controls
use outdoor lights with a photocell or motion sensor so they'll turn on only at night or when someone is present. that way, you can optimize savings while maintaining security. a combined photocell and motion sensor will increase your energy savings even more.
switch to led lights
replace older incandescent, halogen or high-intensity discharge (hid) lighting with leds. energy star®-certified leds use less energy than conventional bulbs and last much longer. the high quality light they offer helps improve safety and security while saving energy.
install outdoor solar lights
solar lights are easy to install and virtually maintenance free. best of all, using them won't increase your electric bill. popular home uses for outdoor solar lighting include pathway light sets, wall-mounted lamps, freestanding lamp posts and security lights.
