Maintenance Tips

Turn OFF power before cleaning, bulb changes, or inspection to ensure safety.
-
Wipe the oil‑rubbed bronze aluminum finish and clear beveled glass regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that can damage the finish.
-
Dry thoroughly after cleaning to prevent moisture spots and help maintain the wet‑rated outdoor protection.

Check mounting hardware and post connections periodically and tighten as needed to keep the fixture secure and weather resistant.
-
Use recommended medium‑base bulbs at appropriate wattage (e.g., max ~100 W incandescent or equivalent LED) to avoid overload and extend bulb life.
-
Inspect seasonally for corrosion, debris, or glass damage; clear drain holes of leaves/bugs to prevent water buildup.
