Utah Company Advocates for Caution When Decorating Trees During the Holiday Season

In Salt Lake City, experts recommend hiring professionals to install outdoor holiday lights, but for those opting for a do-it-yourself approach, safety is paramount. Jason Stroup, lead installer at Christmas Light Professionals, emphasizes the importance of properly sealing electrical connections with tape to prevent water ingress while stringing lights. He also highlights the low fire risk associated with modern LED lights used for Christmas tree decorations. Sandy resident Shelby Terry underscores her commitment to safety by purchasing new lights annually and ensuring her tree is kept far from heat sources. Stroup advises homeowners to consult neighbors for reliable installation services, stressing the importance of hiring licensed and insured companies. With the holiday season still open for decorating this year, he noted that while it’s traditionally ideal to install lights before snow, current weather conditions allow for some flexibility in timing.
