SPRING CLEANING

Winter has passed, which means it’s time for some Spring cleaning!

The harsh winter is finally over, and spring seems to be fin full-swing! While early warm weather is welcomed by many, this means that there is less time to get your spring cleaning done.

Regular maintenance of outdoor lighting is more important than you may think. Unlike the blossoming trees and flowering plants around your landscape, light fixtures do not simply regenerate back to full health. Instead, they require constant upkeep to ensure that each individual light is working at full capacity.

When you have some time, try doing a walk-through of your property and check for anything out of the ordinary. Bulbs burn out over time and may even break due to unforeseen factors, such as snow plows. Seasonal changes (i.e. snow buildup, soil heaving, etc.) can shift the position of light fixtures so that they are not illuminating in the proper direction. Various animals, like rabbits or mice, may have even burrowed holes near your light fixtures and damaged the underground wiring in search of shelter from the cold winter.

Some of these issues may be simple enough for you to fix yourself, however Erickson Outdoor Lighting is more than happy to make a visit to your residence to assist with the more complex maintenance issues that may arise. We also offer an Annual Service Plan that takes all the hassle off of you and maximizes the effectiveness of your outdoor lighting system.
