Lighting Ideas for 2022
Are
you looking for the best lighting ideas to enhance your home? There are many
different home lighting ideas and trends for 2022 to consider.
Whether
you are looking to improve your property's ambiance at night; searching for a
greater sense of security, safety, and convenience; or hoping to create an
eye-catching centerpiece for any room in your home, this article will go over
the top home lighting ideas for 2022 to give you inspiration for your next home lighting project.
Exterior Lighting
Let's
start with exterior lighting ideas. First and foremost, a well-planned exterior
lighting project with proper workmanship can add numerous benefits to your
home. It's a great way to enjoy your pool at night; highlight your beautiful
landscaping even in the dark, and enhance your home's safety and security.
Before
delving into the details of pool lighting, landscape lighting, and security
lighting, let's briefly talk about the types of lights you can choose from LED
and incandescent lights.
LED and Incandescent Lighting
Both
LED and incandescent lighting can be well-suited for your exterior lighting
project needs, so it all comes down to your preference and the aesthetic you
want for your outdoor lighting.
If
you are unsure what would be best for the exterior of your home, our Atlanta electrical
contractors
can help you determine the best choice.
Now,
let's move to pool lighting project ideas:
Pool Lighting
If
your backyard has a pool, you should consider professional pool lighting
installation. With properly installed pool lighting, your pool can be enjoyed
at night the same way it is enjoyed during the day. The light installations
will provide you with extra nighttime visibility, making your pool a safe
place for family and friends to spend time at night.
While the swimmers rest, pool lights create a beautiful sparkling effect on the water at night. So whether you're entertaining or just want to gaze upon the beautiful water, the sparkling effect will soothe and wow every time the lights are on.
Landscape Lighting
Landscape
lighting is the best way to highlight your beautiful landscaping—day and night.
For example, your plants, beds, fountains, or ponds will be admired at night
with professional landscape lighting installation.
The
lighting fixtures installed by our licensed electrical contractors in Atlanta will be carefully placed to make
the most out of and highlight the many features in your landscaping. The
fixtures are durable and designed to sustain tough weather conditions. We can
help you make your landscape recognizable 24/7 with professional landscape
lighting installation.
Security Lighting
Our team of Atlanta electricians understands the importance of feeling safe and secure at your home. That's why our team will work carefully to pinpoint the best areas around the home in which security lighting is needed. The bright and durable lights that are installed deter trespassing or other illegal activities by improving the visibility of your home's exterior.
Interior Lighting
Let's
move on now to interior lighting ideas. Interior lighting is another great way
to add comfort, safety, and convenience to your home. There are numerous
interior lighting ideas for 2022 to consider for your next home improvement
project. First, we will discuss electrical outlet installation services and
then move over to lighting installation services.
Outlet Installation
In
today's households, the use of electronics, appliances, and other electrical
devices is more prevalent than ever. It's important to upgrade, add, and/or
relocate your home's electrical outlets to ensure the ultimate comfort,
convenience, and safety for you and your family.
● GFCI Outlets
To ensure safety in your household, it's crucial that you
install Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlets throughout your home to
protect you and your family from electrical shock and to prevent overheating
circuits and electrical fires in your home. GFCI outlets are required by law in
many areas of the home.
However, homes that were built prior to this code update may
not be in compliance. Our electricians install GFCIs to replace outdated
outlets that are not compliant, add new GFCI outlets for better safety
protection in your home, and replace broken GFCI outlets.
● Weatherproof Outlets
To make the most of summer outdoors, weatherproof outlets
will come into good use for yard work, summer play, and other fun outdoor
activities. These outdoor outlets are durable enough to not get damaged by
rain, snow, or other natural elements. They are strategically installed along
the exterior of your home to provide a power source for your outdoor
activities so that you can conveniently access it when you need it most.
● Child Proof Outlets
Childproof outlets are great for protecting your children
against the risks posed by electrical outlets. While a plastic plug protector
may seem to provide protection, child-proof outlets provide the best safety
protection for your children. Although these outlets have the same look as
regular outlets, their electrical contacts are protected with spring-loaded
plates. This prevents objects from being inserted into the receptacle unless it
creates equal pressure, such as when an appropriate plug is inserted.
● Outlet Wiring Services
There are certain appliances and electronics that use a
large amount of power. No matter which outlet these electronics are plugged
into, there is a possibility that you could overload the circuit, negatively
impacting the use of other electronic devices as well as causing poor device
performance and damaging your home's electrical system. At Estes Services, we
install heavy-duty outlets to safely power appliances and electronics, such as
washer/dryer, microwaves, computers, and hot tubs.
Lighting Installation
Lighting
plays a key role in the overall ambiance and aesthetic appeal of your home.
When properly installed, it can enliven your home and make it feel inviting and
relaxing. At Estes Services, our licensed electricians can take your home's
lighting to the next level with our skilled lighting installation services, so
that you and your family can make it a summer to remember.
● Overhead fixture
Whether you want to add more lighting across a room or
brighten up a specific area of the room, overhead lighting effectively delivers
your lighting needs. It further enhances the aesthetic appeal of your home.
With a wide range of fixtures to choose from, you can get the exact look you
want to complement your current home's interior design or even have it be the
centerpiece of a room.
● Recessed lighting
Recessed lighting is a great option for adding more light to
a room and making it feel more open. This elegant lighting can come with
dimmers so that you can have more control over your lighting levels. Add these
safe and efficient lights to any area of your home.
● Accent lighting
Accent lighting can be used to focus light on specific areas
of your rooms or even on individual objects within your room. Some examples of
this lighting include sconces, pendant lamps, and torcheres. This lighting is a
great choice for enhancing the overall design of your home's interior.
