Frequently asked questions
Lighting by LeafFilter is a permanent, professionally installed outdoor lighting system mounted along your roofline and designed to stay up year-round—no hanging or removing lights each holiday season.
Each individually controllable LED sits inside a low-profile, weatherproof track that blends into your trim. During the day, it’s nearly invisible; at night, it provides vibrant, customizable illumination.
How it works:
- Mounting: The track (available in acrylic or metal) attaches to your fascia or soffit and houses the LEDs, spaced 10 or less inches apart.
- Power: A low-voltage system connects to a compact control box, often located indoors.
Control: Through the Evolution App, you can select colors, patterns (including pre-sets like twinkle, chase and wave), brightness, and schedules for different zones around your home.
The daytime appearance is minimal thanks to patented LED light covers. All LED components are housed in acrylic or metal covers, creating a seamless appearance that matches your structure’s roofline. Impact-resistant acrylic and long-lasting metal covers are both available in a variety of colors and can be customized to match your home. The result? The permanent lighting is nearly invisible during the day.
