An integral attribute of suburban construction is landscaping. And one of the main details of landscape design, in turn, is a ground lamp. It is this detail that is recognized by experts as the most important element that allows you to create an incredible atmosphere in the garden or patio. In addition, these lighting fixtures are used for additional illumination of architectural elements of street space.
Areas of use
LED soil lamps can be used in various design street compositions. They are installed directly in the ground, along garden paths or flower beds. They can be installed between the links of paving slabs and create a surprisingly beautiful, fantasy, almost weightless path glowing in the night darkness.
Quite often, such lamps are used for stairs, concrete walkways or arbors. Thanks to the wear-resistant and durable housing, the soil lamp can also be used to form access roads to a country house or design parking areas.
Benefits
Soil recessed luminaires have a number of advantages and advantages for which landscape designers appreciate them. Firstly, they are able to properly "give" the light. Such devices are able to direct the light beam in the right direction, thereby providing high-quality illumination of landscape design elements or architectural elements.
In addition, street dirt lamps do not create a dazzling effect, so they can be fearlessly used to design access roads, bike paths or parking spaces.
Secondly, an indisputable plus - profitability and quick payback. Every year, electricity tariffs are only growing, and the wrong approach to the organization of street lighting can "fly into a pretty penny." A ground lamp powered by a solar battery will not make you pay an extra ruble for electricity.
Thirdly, these devices allow you to create completely unreal light, almost airy compositions. If you select the right color palette correctly, you can create a real enchanting light show in your summer cottage. Multi-colored soil lamps allow you to combine completely different light-dynamic effects.
Fourth, it is impossible not to note the long service life. Ground lamp is made of high quality and durable materials. He is not afraid of temperature changes or precipitation, frost or heavy rains. In any weather, a gazebo, a rose garden or a decorative pond will be qualitatively highlighted on your site. According to the manufacturers, with proper installation, such a light source can last more than fifteen years.
Fifth, despite their small size, LED ground lights shine an order of magnitude brighter than some other types of street lighting.
Basic requirements for choosing
If you want to purchase a high-quality and durable street lighting device, you need to pay attention to a number of requirements that apply to all dirt lamps.
- Increased resistance to air humidity, temperature and pressure drops.
- Mandatory presence of waterproofing materials inside the case.
- The device must not have defects in the case, scratches or deformation.
- The light source must be protected by a special durable glass. If the lamp is built into a lawn or a car driveway, the housing must have an additional protective crate.
Endless possibilities
Due to the presence of additional elements and a wide range of components, there is always the opportunity to expand the scope and functionality of ground luminaires. For example, you can use:
- Asymmetric optics.
- Scattering lenses having different angles of disclosure of the light beam (from three to one hundred and twenty degrees).
- Different in color and power LED chips (multi-colored or monochrome).
- All kinds of sizes, types and shapes of the case (also painted according to RAL).
With the help of such lighting, even a novice can easily cope with the creation of navigation, landscape or illumination compositions.
