LED fixtures create light far more efficiently than incandescent, meaning there is less heat created. Although LED fixtures will never generate the heat that an incandescent or halogen will, the Kichler LED accent fixtures will still effectively melt snow. Kichler uses the housing to heat-sink the LED; even at -20°C (-4°F) the surface of the fixture will be approximately +15°C (+60°F).
