JELLYFISH LIGHTING FOR A NORTHWEST PORTLAND RESIDENCE
The Goal
Jeff, a homeowner in Northwest Portland, sought a permanent exterior lighting solution to significantly improve his 1990s home’s curb appeal. When he found out that he could have accent lighting and do Christmas lighting with the exact same lights he was in. This would eliminate the process every year involving climbing 20 to 25-foot extension ladders to staple strings of lights onto the eaves. It was a time consuming chore that carried significant personal risk.
Jellyfish lighting would provide both the aesthetic customization he wanted with yellow, blue or any color lighting under his eaves and as a bonus take over his Christmas lighting needs because each bulb can be programmed with different colors and on/off sequences. He chose Portland Oregon Falcon Electric, a Jellyfish Lighting certified dealer and certified installer.
The Challenges
While Jeff knew he wanted the customized lighting, the installation on a large, high-end home presented a significant logistical challenge: achieving a completely hidden system. To maintain the home’s aesthetic, the extensive wiring, control components, and multiple lighting zones needed to be invisible during the day.
Falcon Electric’s crew, led by Scott, faced the task of running power to multiple lengths of lighting pucks across the home’s extensive eaves while discreetly concealing the proprietary control units and all connecting low-voltage lines. This level of seamless integration required planning and execution to ensure the system adhered to code and was still functional.
The Solution
Falcon Electric’s team executed an installation that addressed all power, zoning, and aesthetic requirements. They installed the JellyFish lights on the street-facing portions of the home, mounting them beneath the eaves. Crucially, they integrated the lighting into custom aluminum gutters that were precisely color-matched to the home’s paint. This approach ensured the entire system remained completely unnoticeable until activated.
The crew expertly wired the system to the control units, routing all connections behind trim and into the custom channels. The result was a stunning, durable system that beautifully highlights the home’s architecture. The homeowner can now use an app to easily customize the color and intensity of the lighting for holiday displays, security, or everyday ambiance.
The Result
Jeff received a stunning, customizable, and safe lighting system that immediately achieved his goal of improving his home’s curb appeal. The seamless integration and hidden wiring provided the clean, high-end look he desired, while eliminating the annual, risky chore of installing and removing temporary holiday lights.
The new installation left Jeff feeling proud, and relieved, knowing that his exterior lighting is now a permanent, reliable feature backed by an up to 7 year warranty on services. Choosing Falcon Electric ensured the wiring and multi-zone planning was handled by experts, delivering not just lights, but enhanced property aesthetics and peace of mind.
