    Why Landscape Lighting Matters in Harford County, Maryland

    Common Questions

    Low voltage vs line voltage — which?

    +

    Almost always low voltage 12V LED — safer, cheaper, easier to modify, and the standard for residential landscape lighting in Maryland.

    Are LED fixtures durable in Maryland weather?

    +

    Yes. Quality brass or copper fixtures last 25+ years through Maryland's freeze-thaw cycles.

    Can I add to the system later?

    +

    Yes, when properly sized. We recommend a transformer with 30-40% spare capacity so you can add fixtures down the road.

    Do you offer smart controls?

    +

    Yes. Lutron, Hunza, and FX Luminaire compatible systems with app scheduling and color temperature adjustment.

    Will the lights survive snow?

    +

    Yes when properly installed at the correct depth. We set fixtures so plows and shovels do not catch them.
