Permanent lighting projects are priced from the roofline and installation scope, not the home’s square footage. In Utah, CHIPR LUX projects start at $1,600. That is a starting project price, not a promise that every home will cost the same. A project consultant measures the home on-site and provides the measured project price before anything is booked.
What determines the cost
Existing lights and power
Old light removal can add work before the permanent system is installed. Large projects may also need additional power boxes. Ask whether removal, disposal, power supplies, and control-hub placement are included in your written scope or treated as separate work.
What is included in a CHIPR LUX installation
The approved scope includes color-matched track, RGBW lights, wiring, power supply, control hub, installation, and app handoff. The system supports more than 16 million colors, independent zones, and scheduling. The dedicated 3000K white channel is intended for everyday architectural lighting, while RGBW color can be used for holidays, game days, and other occasions.
Read how the installation process works to see the assessment, measurement, invoice review, scheduling, installation, and app handoff steps. If you are still deciding whether permanent lights are worth the project cost, compare the permanent versus seasonal options and the DIY versus professional responsibilities.
Warranty is part of the comparison
CHIPR LUX provides a 10-year product warranty and a one-year labor warranty. Product coverage includes manufacturing defects, water ingress, and color failure. Weather damage such as hail, fallen branches, ice damage, flooding, lightning, and other acts of nature is excluded, as are power surges, third-party damage, roof work by other contractors, customer modifications, and improper voltage. See the full warranty terms before comparing proposals.
Price is only one part of the project. Compare the measured scope, materials, installation responsibility, controls, warranty limits, and support you receive for the amount. For more detail about the published system, read the CHIPR LUX materials overview. See the Utah service locations to check the communities currently covered.
Access and project complexity
Roof height, the working area around the home, gates, landscaping, roofline shape, and other access conditions can affect the installation. A straightforward one-story eave and a multi-level home with multiple peaks should not be expected to have the same installation scope even at similar footage.
Measured roofline footage
The amount of track and the number of lights begin with the linear footage being installed. A home with a large footprint may have a relatively simple roofline, while a smaller home with several eaves and peaks can require more planning and material. The on-site measurement turns the visible roofline into a project scope.
A sample scope, not a quote
Here is the kind of detail a homeowner should expect to discuss during a measurement:
- Front eave and two gable peaks included.
- One side run included, with a documented start and stop point.
- 6063 powder-coated aluminum track, color-matched using a physical swatch.
- RGBW lights with a dedicated 3000K white channel.
- Wiring, power supply, and the included CHIPR LUX control hub.
- Installation, system testing, and app handoff.
- Any existing seasonal light removal listed separately if requested.
This example explains a scope, not a price for a particular home. The final amount depends on the actual footage, transitions, access, power needs, and approved work. Requesting a measured assessment is the reliable way to turn the example into a project price.
Financing and payment terms
Synchrony offers no-interest-if-paid-in-full promotional options for qualified applicants, with promotional periods of 6, 12, 18, or 24 months. Deferred interest accrues from the purchase date and may be charged if the promotional balance is not paid in full by the end of the selected period. Financing is subject to credit approval, and the account terms and applicable interest rate come from Synchrony before acceptance. Review the pricing page for the current disclosure.
Peaks, jumps, and discontinuations
Roofline lighting is not always one continuous run. Peaks, corners, separate eaves, changes in direction, and jumps between sections affect track fitting, wiring, connections, and installation time. Ask your consultant to show where each proposed run starts and stops.
