I just purchased the LOR Rooflines (4x).  I am looking for suggestion on how to attach the lights to my house. The lights will go up soon and come down at the first of the new year. The lights will be attached to the eaves of the house not the ridges

I have to black mounting trim.  Do I need to use PVC pipe; attach the trim to the pipe and the clamp the pipe to the house.

 

ANY and all help is greatly appreciated.

I used thin wall conduit (emt). I installed it using stainless angle brackets and emt wall mounts. The brackets I mounted on the gutter brackets . The angle brackets I used are 3 “ brackets and mounting the ent mounts are about 2 inches above the gutter. Take and use the pixel mounting strip holes to attack zip ties to conduit. Now in my case I leave the conduit up all year but remove the pixels. 😃😃

I used the black window mesh, attached it to PVC (1/2" or 3/4" will do.) I then put in PVC pipe clips on the house, two on bottom, one on each side of the window. The pipe clips are PVC material, and I replace one or two a year. I would look for metal ones that have some type of latch mechanism. 

I am considering these: Halex #0 ACC Conduit and Pipe Hangers (5-Pack) 26780 - The Home Depot

I would recommend you use electrical conduit, instead of PVC. It's stronger. I am in the northeast, and the PVC gets brittle after a few years. I am constantly fixing broken PVC.
