Q: How many string lights can be on one outlet?

• <div><p>How many string lights can be on one outlet depends on a number of varying factors, including the total wattage of your circuit, the type of lights, the energy needs of the lights, and cord specifications. It&rsquo;s better to play it safe here to protect your circuit, so figure out the max wattage of your circuit, compare that to the lights, and move on from there. Generally speaking, LED string lights require less energy than incandescent bulbs, translating to a higher number of lights per circuit. </p></div>

Q: How much do replacement Christmas blinker lights cost?

• <div><p>Blinker lights come with a standard box of Christmas lights, so you don&rsquo;t need to pay extra for them unless you&rsquo;ve misplaced the ones from the original box. You can buy replacement Christmas blinker lights for about $8 per box. If you want to plan for future holidays, you can buy a value box of 24 replacement blinker bulbs for about $12. Also called flasher lights, the replacement bulbs often come in packages of six bulbs.</p></div>

Q: How do I keep my icicle lights from tangling in the wind?

• <div><p>No one has figured out a perfect solution to this problem. Tying icicle lights down or adding weights to them can help, but it&rsquo;s a very time-consuming process and far from foolproof. If your winters are too windy, we suggest simply switching away from icicle lights to straight runs of non-dangling lights along the edge of your roof.</p></div>

Q: How do you hang Christmas lights on a roof peak without a ladder?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t have a ladder, you may be able to use a light-hanging pole. If not, you&rsquo;ll have to rent a bucket lift or other machinery to reach your roof. </p></div>

Q: Is it OK to hang Christmas lights from gutters?

• <div><p>It's safe to hang Christmas lights from gutters with a few considerations. First, when installing the lights, follow safe ladder-use guidelines and avoid getting onto the roof. Second, for best results and the integrity of your lights, use clips to keep the bulbs away from inside the gutters where they could run into trouble with water or ice. </p></div>

"We had the Glass Geeks professional staff clean our dryer vent as well as clean all the windows and screens on our two-story house. Shane and Rachael were great to work with in planning the services and Gavin was SO helpful and cooperative in doing the work. So if you decide to use their services (and why would you NOT?!) make sure to check on all of the home support services that they provide; you can save a bundle if you bundle the work you need into one job. Great people to work with!"
