How To Decorate Using Outdoor LED Christmas Lights

Hanging www.aGreensupply.com LED christmas lights is popular and conventional for many families. But it can be a daunting and frustrating experience. Take the time to plan and hand the LED christmas lights in detailed, organized manner. A little planning can do a lot!

Here's what you should know to get the LED christmas lighting installation done without the worries and headache.

1. Write an Electric Plan. Plan ahead and know what you intend to hang lights on, and the way you plan to plug them in. Joining too many strings of lights together can blow fuses (especially the cheaper strings of lights). Plan the layout by utilizing some electrical outlets.

2. Safety Issues. Clean up the dried leaves from gutters and downspouts to alleviate the chance of fires. Be sure that the electrical cords are intact and not cracked or torn. Check the hooks are secure and provide durable place to install the lights.

3. Use Proper Specialty equipment. Get out just the right stuff you will need for the job. Possibly, you will need a ladder, tape measure, light clips or hooks, attractive lights and extension cords. You might also need a sludge hammer, pliers and a screwdriver.

4. Segregate light strands and check out the lights. Before attaching any decorations, separate the strands, lay them out across the lawn or driveway to get all the twists and kinks from the strings. Check for broken bulbs and split wiring. Connect the light strings, and change any dead bulbs. It's better to replace burned out bulbs before they are put up and out of reach.

5. Hangers, hooks and clips. Equally space the hooks or clips along the eaves of your house. Make sure the hooks/clips are connected firmly and spaced far enough apart to keep the light strands from dangling or swinging in the air. Usually, 12 inches is about right. Attach all the hooks along the spaces you plan to have lights. Don't use staples or nails, since the wires can be split, light strands can be ruined, and potential fire hazards can be created.

6. Hang the lights. Before climbing the ladder, make sure it is on leveled ground and has a firm footing. Ask someone to hold the ladder balanced. When hanging www.aGreensupply.com LED christmas lights, you should hold the strings up to protect yourself from the weight from the not-yet-hung part of the strand from pulling off or cracking any clips or hooks.

7. Power Up. When the lights have been placed securely in the light pins, plug the strings into the created outlets. Set electronic timers if you're using them. Check to be sure there are no extension cords loosely dangling, or drooping wires that could create a safety risk.

8. All Systems Go. Now it's time to turn on the lights and do a final check out any missing or dead bulbs. If there should be a complete string that isn't working, check the connections before updating the string. Many times the problem is a bad connection or a burned out lamp instead of a defective string, especially if the strand worked before hanging.

9. Take pleasure in the Show! Pick up any particles and empty boxes, get your tools away, and walk from your house to have a better look at your handiwork. Bet you've got the most beautiful light display on your neighborhood.!
