Solar Lights for Bellville buyers

Whether you are in Bellville or elsewhere in Western Cape, solar lights suit gardens, driveways and boundaries, and keep working through load-shedding. Local suppliers can recommend fittings that cope with your area's sun, wind and, near the coast, salt air.

Solar in Bellville

Bellville has the same Mediterranean pattern as the rest of the Cape, with hot, dry, sunny summers and cloudier, wetter winters, and the south-easter makes mounting strength important. The City of Cape Town supplies the area and requires grid-tied and hybrid systems to be registered and approved, using inverters on its approved list. Older houses in Boston, Welgemoed and Oakdale have tile and IBR roofs, complexes and sectional-title schemes have shared roofs and body-corporate rules, and the Stikland and Bellville industrial areas have large warehouse roofs ideal for commercial systems. Dust and wind-blown sand can dirty panels. Hybrid backup, solar geysers and commercial rooftops are popular.

Typical solar lights requests in the area come from:

• Family homes: path, patio and boundary wall lights that come on at dusk and ignore load-shedding
• Townhouses and flats: communal pathway and carport lighting installed with body-corporate approval and no new wiring
• Shops, offices and schools: parking, entrance and signage-free façade lighting that works during outages
• Factories and warehouses: perimeter and yard lighting for depots and warehouses, often with higher-output fittings
• Estate homes: tasteful, low-glare fittings that meet estate design rules for gardens, entrances and walkways
• Farms, smallholdings and lodges: lighting for kraals, sheds, farmyards and staff housing where mains power is unavailable
