How to save energy on outdoor lighting

With fall upon us, we’re met with shorter days and longer nights, which means utilising lights inside and outside our homes. Switching to energy-efficient sources can drastically cut your energy bills, so we’ve put together our top tips to save energy on outside lighting.

Low-voltage lighting is a good option for decorative and landscape lighting. Most of our lights are low-voltage and use LED lamps, which are well-suited for outdoor use and use less energy than halogens. LED lights also last 25 times longer than traditional incandescent bulbs.

Lights that have enclosed fixtures are a great option for outdoor lighting, since they are protected from the weather. This elegant small hat shape fixture provides a circle spread of warm light.

The sun may have disappeared for the most part, but when we’re blessed with the occasional sunny day this fall, you could try solar outdoor lighting fixtures. Easy to maintain and install, solar fixtures work well for lighting driveways and paths and make a beautiful addition to your garden.

You should also be sure to clean bulbs and fittings regularly to avoid them getting dirty, which reduces light input and efficiency.
