Lifespan of Street Light Poles
The typical lifespan of a street light pole is about 50 years, provided it receives consistent maintenance. Built to endure all weather conditions, these poles are crucial for the efficient operation of public areas, offering necessary lighting to enhance visibility and safety after dark. This ensures a sense of security in public spaces such as neighborhoods and parking lots.
Street light poles face various environmental challenges, including direct sunlight, extreme cold, varying temperatures, adverse weather conditions, and strong winds. In Canada, we deal with all of these weather conditions every year with our harsh Winter weather. These elements can compromise the pole's functionality and shorten its lifespan. Minor damages like scratches or dents might escalate into more significant problems if left unattended. To ensure that these poles remain functional and safe to keep up, we ensure all our poles are made from quality materials that last.
A damaged pole becomes vulnerable to moisture, dust, snow, ice, and other harmful elements, leading to corrosion that weakens its structure. Neglected maintenance can result in the pole collapsing or becoming non-functional, posing a risk to both the environment and public safety.
Importance of Winter Maintenance for Lighting Poles
Establishing a routine maintenance schedule for lighting poles is particularly important during winter. Regular inspections, conducted every few years, are essential to identify and address immediate repair needs. Street lighting poles should also undergo ground resistance testing, which involves checking power supplies, ground electrodes, and power grids.
Our Nova Pole specialists meticulously record every maintenance action and inspection, ensuring thorough documentation for future reference. This approach also facilitates addressing non-routine issues, such as reported lighting malfunctions or structural failures, more efficiently.
Consistent maintenance, especially in winter, is crucial for ensuring area safety and keeping street lights functional during heavy snowfall or freezing temperatures.
