Channel letter lighting is one of the most visible ways to draw customers into your business, but before selecting which type is ideal for you there are several key considerations to keep in mind.

Front & Halo Illuminated Channel Letters feature translucent faces illuminated by LED modules concealed behind their faces to resemble traditional neon signs. This style has become very popular.

Durability

Channel letter lighting provides high visibility for your brand and helps increase business recognition, as well as enhance the design of your storefront. Brightness settings can be adjusted according to individual needs; however, too much brightness could diminish its beauty or even cause eye injuries.

Durability of illuminated signage should also be an important consideration. For instance, signs located near salt air will quickly degrade their materials; and extreme cold temperatures can lead to cracking of these signs over time.

An LED channel letter sign can be an excellent investment for your business, outlasting more traditional signage options while saving energy costs and providing reduced maintenance requirements. Plus, LEDs last much longer with minimal upkeep required.

Energy Efficiency

LED lighting is extremely energy efficient, using minimal power to produce vibrant and colorful illuminations that make an excellent addition to backlit channel letters and decorative lighting installations.

LED lights typically last 10 years or longer depending on how long the sign is being used and its temperature environment.

To maximize the longevity of your LED signage, partner with a professional signage company who will take care in handling all aspects of its creation including illumination. This will ensure your sign draws attention even after nightfall!

Front lit channel letters are an effective way to attract customers and stand out from competitors. Their translucent faces can be illuminated using neon gas tubes or, increasingly, LED modules, creating a sophisticated look and increasing business visibility.

Design Flexibility

Lighting is essential to creating a successful business sign. Any inconsistent or dim areas could adversely impact customers’ perceptions of your brand and reduce customer retention.

SloanLED offers LED channel letter lighting products designed to meet the specific needs of any business, from face and halo lit options, shallow to deep can depths, as well as routed acrylic letters.

Fabricated aluminum halo-lit letters illuminated from behind create an elegant and sophisticated appearance.

LEDs produce more concentrated light output than neon tubes, thus decreasing energy usage and carbon emissions. Furthermore, they’re more durable and fade less easily; plus GE’s Tetra MAX and miniMAX lights use less modules than traditional channel letters for greater cost-efficiency – meaning fewer replacement bulbs and reduced electric bills; when coupled with smaller transformers and efficient designs this savings becomes even greater in high traffic locations.

Maintenance

Channel letter signage stands up against its more fragile neon counterpart, easily broken by pests chewing wires, with ease. They’re built to last and maintenance can be kept under control by taking simple steps such as washing away grime or monitoring for pest activity on wires.

Illuminated channel letters require power in order to operate their LED illumination, which can be connected via a raceway panel installed behind them in an attic or other suitable location. For future repairs or maintenance purposes, access should always be granted for maintenance purposes if this solution proves unfeasible.

Most lighting issues with illuminated channel letter signs result from burnt-out bulbs or improper wiring, so when this occurs a service technician equipped with the necessary tools can be dispatched quickly to troubleshoot and repair it quickly; allowing customers to get their signs back online faster than before.
