Tampa’s beautiful weather practically begs you to spend time outdoors. But why just settle for a basic patio when you can create truly amazing outdoor living spaces? Here at Comfort All-Stars, we’re all about helping you bring your backyard dreams to life, and that includes making sure it’s functional and safe with the right electrical installations. So, get ready to transform your yard into a stunning and functional outdoor oasis with these electrifying ideas:
1. Light Up The Night
Lights are one of the best ways to spruce up the outside of a home or the backyard! Here are some cool lighting ideas to add to your vision board:
- String Lights: These create a warm, inviting ambiance, perfect for evening entertaining.
- Landscape Lighting: Strategically placed spotlights and path lights enhance safety and security, while highlighting your landscaping features.
- Fire pit with flickering lights: Fire pits are a great gathering spot, and built-in fire pit fixtures with surrounding lights add a touch of luxury. We can ensure your fire pit is wired correctly and meets all safety codes.
2. Dine Under the Stars
Bring the kitchen to YOU. Consider having a landscape design professional help you build the outdoor kitchen of your dreams!
- Outdoor kitchen with sparkling features: Who needs to be cooped up inside when you can have a fully functional kitchen outdoors? Have an electrician install the necessary electrical outlets for your grill, refrigerator, and even a built-in pizza oven!
- Undercabinet lighting: Don’t fumble in the dark while prepping food. A flashlight just won’t cut it. Undercabinet lighting provides essential task lighting for your outdoor kitchen.
3. Relax and Recharge
After coming home from a long day at work, you need a place you can relax and recharge!
- Built-in hot tub or spa: Melt away stress and enjoy the Florida sunshine in a luxurious hot tub. A local electrician can ensure it’s wired safely and according to local codes.
- Charging station for your devices: Never get caught with a dead phone outside again! Install weatherproof USB charging outlets for your convenience.
4. Entertain in Style
With these fun ideas, your home could be the new go-to hangout spot in the summertime!
- Outdoor movie screen: Transform your backyard into a movie theater! You can have a professional help you with the electrical setup for a projector and sound system.
- Pool party paradise: String lights, underwater lighting, and dedicated outlets for pool equipment – make your pool area the envy of the neighborhood!
5. Embrace the Florida Breeze
Add a little breeze to your outdoor oasis.
- Ceiling fans: Keep cool and comfortable on even the hottest days with strategically placed weatherproof ceiling fans.
6. Add Water Features
A pool and/or hot tub aren’t the only water features your backyard should have!
- Soothing waterfall or fountain: The sound of babbling water creates a tranquil atmosphere. Have a professional assist you with the electrical installation for your water feature’s pump.
7. Safety First
While you’re out having fun in your new backyard, don’t forget about your safety.
- Ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs): These life-saving outlets shut off power in the event of a ground fault, preventing electrical shock. We highly recommend GFCI outlets in all outdoor areas with electrical components.
