GPS timers are a great addition to your landscape lighting system in the Northern Houston, TX, area that will make it easier for you to use. These timers can be programmed to specific zip codes and they utilize satellites to know when the sun is setting or rising so that they can turn on and off your lights automatically. What's more, because these timers do all of the work for you, your lights will never be left on during the day which can help you save money on your electric bill. However, before hiring a company to install a GPS timer on your landscape lighting system, you should make sure that they offer a warranty on them just in case something goes wrong. Because GPS timers are installed outdoors and are exposed to the elements, you'll want to make sure they are covered by a warranty in the event they become damaged.


What are GPS timers and how do they work?

A GPS timer is a device that is installed on your landscape lighting system that will automatically turn it on and off at specific times throughout the year. These devices can be programmed to a specific zip code and will then utilize satellite data to automatically turn your lights on and off at the correct times. This means they can turn your lights on at dusk and off at dawn, so you won't have to remember to do so!


Why should you use a GPS timer for your outdoor lighting system?

There are many benefits that come with using a GPS timer for your outdoor lighting system. For one, these timers will allow you to enjoy your system without having to worry about turning your lights on and off manually. Another benefit of using a GPS timer for your landscape lighting system is that you won't have to worry about your lights being on during the day since the timer will turn them off. While this may seem like a small thing, it could actually save you some money on your energy bill since they won't be on and running when they don't need to be!


Make sure the company you hire to install a GPS timer on your lighting system offers a warranty.

Before hiring a company to install a GPS timer on your landscape lighting system, make sure they offer a warranty on it. If there is an issue with the timer after installation, the company you hired should come out to either repair or replace it. That way, if anything happens to your timer, you won’t have to pay out of pocket to get the problem fixed.

If a company doesn't back their GPS timers with a warranty, it could indicate that they don't stand behind their work.
