Installation and Maintenance
Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance and safety. While some homeowners may choose to DIY, professional installation is recommended for those unfamiliar with electrical work. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning the glass and checking for rust, will help prolong the life of your post lights. Replacement parts are available to address any issues that may arise.
