How Long Does Permanent Lighting Last? Warranty and Lifespan Explained

Home with blue Trimlight permanent lighting along the roofline at night

Permanent lighting is a real investment, so it is fair to ask how long it will last and who stands behind it. Here is how the protection works.

Built to stay outside year-round

Trimlight's channel system holds the lights and wires in a protective housing along your roofline. It is designed for continuous outdoor exposure, and Trimlight says little to no maintenance is required. If a repair is ever needed, you contact your local dealer.

Two layers of protection

The Trimlight product warranty. The channel, bulbs and controllers are covered for as long as you own your home, against defects in materials and workmanship. Bulbs are rated for 50,000+ hours of nighttime use. A labor charge may apply for warranty service calls, and the warranty applies to systems professionally installed by an authorized Trimlight dealer.

Our guarantee. If you are unhappy for any reason with our service or quality during the first year of ownership, and we cannot fix it to industry standards, we will cheerfully refund 100% of your original investment. Full details are on our warranty page.

What affects lifespan in South Florida

Sun, humidity, heavy rain and salt air all take a toll on outdoor products. Homes near the water see more salt and moisture than inland homes, which is one reason it helps to work with a local authorized dealer who can inspect and service the system after installation. Ask any installer how the system is sealed and mounted for your specific property.

What to ask any installer

  • Are you an authorized dealer for the product you install?
  • What does the warranty cover, in writing?
  • Who do I call if something stops working?
  • Is there a guarantee on workmanship and satisfaction?
