Outdoor lighting in Bloemfontein
Bloemfontein is the judicial capital, with government buildings, hospitals, a university and shopping centres alongside suburbs like Langenhoven Park, Brandwag, Fichardt Park and Woodland Hills Estate. Homeowners want security lights on walls and driveways, plus patio and garden lighting, while estates often regulate fitting style and light spill. Smallholdings in Bainsvlei rely on solar flood lights for gates and stables. The Free State gets very cold, frosty winters and hot summers with spectacular lightning storms and occasional hail, so surge protection and sturdy lenses are worth the extra cost. Load-shedding and streetlight outages support solar. Local electricians issue a CoC.
