Spring Lighting Maintenance Checklist for
HOAs & Commercial Properties
As spring arrives, it’s the perfect time for HOAs and commercial property managers to conduct a thorough lighting maintenance check. A well-lit property not only enhances safety and security but also boosts curb appeal and property values. Follow this spring lighting maintenance checklist to ensure your property is ready for the season ahead:
Inspect All Exterior Lighting
Walk the property at dusk to identify any burned-out or flickering lights. Pay special attention to:
- Parking lot lights
- Pathway and sidewalk lighting
- Building-mounted fixtures
- Entryway and signage lighting
- Decorative and landscape lighting
Clean Lenses and Fixtures
Dirt and debris can reduce brightness and efficiency. Cleaning should include:
- Removing dirt, dust, and insect buildup
- Wiping down lenses and reflectors
- Checking for obstructions, such as overgrown landscaping
Check for Damage and Wear
Winter weather can take a toll on outdoor lighting. Look for:
- Cracked or broken fixtures
- Rust and corrosion
- Loose or exposed wiring
- Water intrusion in fixtures
Assess Light Levels and Coverage
Ensure lighting provides adequate coverage and uniform brightness. Consider:
- Adjusting fixture angles for better illumination
- Adding additional lights where needed
- Upgrading to higher-output or LED fixtures for efficiency
Test Timers, Sensors & Controls
Check all automation systems to ensure lights turn on and off at the correct times. Inspect:
- Photocells and dusk-to-dawn sensors
- Motion sensors for security lighting
- Timer settings for seasonal daylight changes
