Napa County Outdoor Pendant

Use damp‑rated pendants in covered areas protected from rain; choose wet‑rated when wind‑driven rain can reach the fixture.

Leave 30–36 inches from tabletop to the bottom of the pendant and adjust chain/rod length accordingly. For tall porches, test night sightlines.

Yes—slope‑rated canopies or chain hangers work well on angled ceilings. Verify maximum slope in the spec sheet.

Target 800–2000 lumens depending on table size and ambient light. Combine with wall lights or string lights for layered scenes.

2700–3000K feels warm and welcoming; CRI 90+ improves color on food and faces. Keep color consistent with nearby fixtures.

Most pendants dim with compatible LED dimmers or smart modules. Confirm triac/ELV or 0–10 V per the driver or lamp used.

Powder‑coated aluminum or brass with marine‑grade options resist corrosion. Choose sealed sockets and stainless hardware.

Use heavier chain, shorter drops, or guy‑line kits in windy areas. Consider semi‑flush alternatives where sway is a concern.

Integrated LED offers sealed optics and efficiency; bulb‑based allows quick lamp replacement. Pick based on service preference.

Clean with mild soap, rinse dust and pollen, and re‑tighten hardware annually. Replace weathered gaskets as needed.
