LED Systems

    

With growing concerns in the world about light pollution and global warming, many are starting to think "green".  Southern Exposure has recently been through LEED's (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) training and have become familiar with these standards.  Let us help your project become LEED certified.

Our LED landscape lighting systems offer a safe and reliable low energy lighting solution to conventional low voltage halogen lighting. Conventional low voltage landscape lighting is plagued by high temperatures, voltage drop and lamp burnout. The dominant use of halogen lighting is the weak link in today's conventional landscape lighting. Using a 100 year old technology has created an industry with many band aids to over come the limitations of halogen lighting.

Function

Landscape lighting is used for decorative and functional purposes. Safety and visibility are the two most important functional reasons for using landscape lighting. LED lights can provide any level of lighting needed to provide visibility and outline safety hazards in the yard.

LED lights also offer a wide range of color choices and extend your decorative and style options. Among the most important design uses for outdoor landscape lighting: up-lighting to provide ambient light in the area; down-lighting to provide targeted light from above; silhouette lighting to provide dramatic accents by casting light behind specific design elements; and colored LED lights to provide color washes and add interest.
