Benefits of Summerhouse Electrics
The most common addition to a summerhouse is lighting. Adding electrical lighting to your summerhouse gives you the opportunity to use your space on cloudy days and late into the evening. The style of lighting you choose would be based on the style of room you’re after. Soft lighting would be installed to create a cosy atmosphere. This could be chosen for yoga and meditation rooms. Brighter lighting would be beneficial for offices and hobby rooms. This will give you increased visibility without causing strain to your eyes. Whatever the preference, adding lighting to your summerhouse would be a huge advantage.
Having plug sockets in a summerhouse offers you the convenience of powering electrical devices. You could be charging a device such as a work laptop or using electrical heating to stay warmer in colder months. However you choose to use your summerhouse, more options are available with additional power sockets.
Summerhouse Electrics Installation
The first steps to installing summerhouse electrics is to ensure the summerhouse is watertight. Any signs of water leaking into a summerhouse would need to be fixed before the electrics can be considered. If water was to enter your summerhouse electrics, there is a greater risk of shock. Once your summerhouse is considered weatherproof then the next step would be to check the homes consumer unit. Older consumer units may not be able to take the additional electrical requirements and a new consumer unit may need to be installed. If you are unsure, a qualified electrician will be able to advise you on this. To connect your summerhouse to a home’s electrics, a channel would be dug out through the garden to enable an armoured cable to run underground from the house to the outbuilding. The cables are at an advantage of being underground to prevent any accidental damage. Although summerhouse electric installation is a large project, a qualified electrician will take care with their installation and try to cause as little disruption to your garden as possible. Never install summerhouse electrics yourself, you may cause electrical harm to yourself and damage to your home. All electrical work must be completed by a professional.
