Can they be on outdoor decking in climate were there is freezing winter weather, withstanding snow and ice?

Yes. We have had ours down for 2 years of brutal Chicago winters. These are far better than the wood decking we had down previous years. Highly recommended.

Not sure....I put them back in the house before snowfall. Sorry. They are definitely worth the effort.

I put it together last summer on my balcony prior to the 2015 deep freeze of the East. I'll see in a few week how well it held up -- once I go out onto my balcony. Looking out the window, it seems alright ...

Yes. I have had it out all winter long. Lots and lots of snow and ice here no issue at all. It handled it beautifully. It's a wonderful item. No problems with it.

Absolutely!! I've had them for almost 2 yrs now and they are completely exposed to the elements. So far, no complaints. They have kept color after two major winter storms and steamy hot summers.

They definitely are weather proof. They have been outside under a deck for over a year (in Ohio weather conditions) with no issues to date.

They definitely look like they can withstand some winter abuse. Having said that, I live in CO and took mine off for the winter. Didn't want snow/rain getting inside the metal mechanism.

Don't see why not. I have 2 on the deck and one has been there thru the winter and a few snow storms. Neither one is under an overhang. Good luck.

Yes, no problem. We have had them on the house for over 3 years and water, snow, ice is not an issue.

I live in Oregon and it does get wind here. If the wind shold ever tear down the sail, it would not damage the deck.

I don't believe they are, although if you can put them in an area that is no directly exposed to rain or snow they might be ok. If you live in an area that gets a lot of rain or humidity, I would contact the manufacturer and see if they can give a bit more information. If you were to put them in a covered patio area, that would help.

We have ours out exposed to the weather and have not had any issues with it. So I would say yes!

Yes, mine stayed out on the deck all winter and works fine now. Really helps out on hot Georgia days!

I bring mine in for the winter but they are very sturdy so I can't see why you couldn't use them in the winter.

I did on my outside deck, but make sure it's warm/hot outside when it's done. I live in ohio and so far it's doing fine..

I purchased one for my wife for Christmas. We still have 6 inches of snow on the deck. Needless to say it's still in the box. Sorry

I guess it depends on how you define 'cold weather', we have two units that were placed outside from the beginning by our installer and no problem to date, we are in south central Texas. 'hope that helps you, good product

Yes they work outside in the cold, rain, snow etc. Mine are on my deck stairs outside and they have worked flawlessly all winter and it's been below freezing quite often. As for adhesive tape you should be fine. They aren't heavy and have plenty of flat surface on the backs to adhere to.

Only if the deck is 100% water proof. These lights can not come in contact with water.

It would be subject to freezing in cold climates, otherwise I do not see a reason why it can't be installed outdoors. The plastic housing would likely degrade over time in direct sunlight so a shady location would be better.

It has stood up just fine for us. Was on the deck all winter.. I just brushed off the snow everytime i was out there clearing off the deck.. Looks good as new, and kept everything dry!
