Q: Is system testing part of the repair process for outdoor lighting?

• <div><p>Yes, most services include testing the system after repairs. Confirm with your provider.</p></div>

Q: Can a motion sensor be added to an existing light?

• <div><p>Yes! As a matter of fact, there are many sensors that add motion to existing outdoor lights. These motion sensors attach to pre-existing flood lights and other outdoor lights without any fussy and potentially dangerous electrical work. Additionally, some flood lights and related fixtures ship with motion sensors built-in. </p></div>

Q: Do motion-sensor lights deter crime?

• <div><p>The majority of potential burglars are amateurs looking to make a quick buck after breaking and entering. By installing motion-sensor lights, alarm systems, and security cameras, throughout the home, there&rsquo;s a good chance you will deter crime on your property.</p></div>

Q: What maintenance is needed for holiday lighting between seasons?

• <div><p>Between seasons, inspect cords for damage, replace burnt-out bulbs, and clean lighting fixtures to prevent dirt buildup. Proper storage in cool, dry conditions will extend the lights' lifespan and minimize repairs or replacements when redeployed.</p></div>
