What's new in the industry this year....LED outdoor low-voltage lighting & smart controllers
.....
Is LED Lighting for you?
Looks like the lighting industry is finally starting to produce some good, cost efficient outdoor 'LED' low-voltage Lights (check out our website: http://www.jpc-designs.com/product-links/). The pros & cons of LED....very efficient,~5watts per fixture instead of 20watts (standard 12-volt). That also means smaller transformer sizes, and more lights can be used on the same 12-2 wiring (easy to add more lights to a system that is maxed out on available power).
But, the fixtures can cost on average ~ 2x the cost of standard 12 volt. Contact us for more information, or to schedule on on-site evaluation of your current system to see if LED is right for you....
Did you Know?
Smart irrigation controllers are the hot new product for this year. Although they have been around the commercial industry for a while, we are seeing them a lot more in the residential market. Smart controllers use sensors & more sophisticated programming to save on water usage, and provide better monitoring of your gardens water needs. With local on-going water rationing being implemented, this can be some pretty big costs savings over time, plus it saves water (which can help lift rationing). Contact us for a water audit & evaluation of your current irrigation system & controller.
