Here, we answer some of the most commonly asked questions about permanent Holiday lighting.
How well do permanent lights handle Colorado’s extreme weather?
Our permanent LED systems are built for Colorado’s wild mix of sun, snow, wind, and sudden temperature swings. The channels and LEDs are rated for year round exposure, UV resistant, and fully sealed against moisture. You get reliable performance through every season without the yearly hassle of putting lights up and taking them down.
Will the lighting survive hail storms?
Yes. The lights sit inside a protected channel system that shields them from direct impact. Oelo and other premium permanent lighting systems are engineered for durability in hail prone regions like Colorado. While nothing is indestructible, these lights handle typical hail seasons incredibly well.
Are permanent lights visible during the day?
Barely. The slim acrylic or metal channels blend into your fascia for a clean, seamless look. Most homeowners say they forget the lights are even there until they turn them on at night.
Do permanent lights increase my electric bill?
Not by much. These systems use low voltage, energy efficient LEDs that consume a fraction of the power of traditional holiday lights. Even with regular use, the difference on your monthly bill is minimal.
Can I use the lights year round for other holidays and events?
Absolutely. Permanent lighting systems come with hundreds of preset colors and effects. Switch from Christmas to Fourth of July, birthdays, game days, and backyard parties with a tap on the app.
Are permanent lights safe to leave on my house long term?
Yes. The systems are low voltage and professionally installed to meet electrical and building standards. All wiring is protected, connections are sealed, and the components are designed for continuous outdoor use.
How long do permanent LED systems last in Colorado’s sun?
High quality LEDs can deliver 50,000 hours or more of usable life. The channels also protect the diodes from UV exposure, which helps extend longevity even in Colorado’s high elevation sun.
Can these lights be dimmed to meet dark sky friendly guidelines?
Yes. Many permanent systems are dimmable, letting you reduce brightness and limit upward glow. This helps minimize light pollution while still giving you beautiful nighttime illumination.
Will permanent lighting void my roof or siding warranty?
No. The channel system mounts to the fascia and does not interfere with roofing materials. Installations are completed in a way that avoids compromising your home’s exterior warranties.
What kind of maintenance is required?
Almost none. Permanent lighting systems are sealed, durable, and low voltage. If a light ever fails, individual diodes can be replaced without removing the entire system.
How customizable are the color patterns and animations?
Extremely. From solid colors to gradients, chases, fades, sparkle modes, and holiday presets, you can tailor the lights however you want. Create custom scenes or choose from built in designs.
Do I need WiFi for the system to work?
WiFi makes it easier to control the system and use remote features, but the lights will still operate through the standard controller. You’ll still have full access to colors and scenes even without internet.
How long does installation take?
Most homes can be completed in one day. Larger homes or homes with complex rooflines may take a bit longer, but our team works efficiently to get you up and glowing quickly.
What’s the cost range for permanent holiday lighting in Colorado?
Pricing depends on the linear footage of your roofline, the type of channel, and system features. Most Colorado homes fall somewhere between mid range and premium tiers. We provide exact pricing during your on site consultation.
Is financing available?
Yes. Many homeowners choose to finance permanent lighting because it spreads out the cost while letting you enjoy your system right away. Ask us about current options.
Can permanent lights be installed on stucco, brick, metal, or uneven fascia?
Yes. Our mounting system works with nearly all Colorado home exteriors. We evaluate the best attachment points during your walkthrough to ensure the installation is secure and clean.
Will my HOA allow permanent lighting?
Most HOAs approve permanent holiday lighting when it blends into the fascia and is not visible during the day. We can help with documentation and photos for your HOA if needed.
Do these lights attract bugs?
Not really. LED lighting produces very little heat, which makes it far less appealing to insects compared to traditional bulbs.
What happens if a light fails?
If a diode ever goes out, we can replace that individual node. Most systems come with strong manufacturer warranties, and we back our installs with service support as well.
Can I control the lights from my phone when I’m not home?
Yes. Most systems allow app based control from anywhere as long as your controller is online. Change colors, adjust brightness, or schedule scenes even when you’re away.
