What Is MHL TrueGlow Permanent Track Lighting?
MHL TrueGlow is a professionally installed exterior lighting system in which the lights and wiring are housed inside a custom aluminum track mounted discreetly beneath your home’s soffits. The track is selected to coordinate with the exterior, allowing the system to blend into the home during the day instead of leaving exposed wires and individual light strands visible.
TrueGlow lights are spaced approximately eight inches apart, creating a cleaner, more continuous appearance than typical consumer permanent-lighting kits. Each light provides full RGB color along with dedicated warm and cool white options, making the system equally suited for elegant architectural lighting, everyday exterior illumination, sporting events, celebrations, and fully customized holiday displays.
The entire system is controlled from your smartphone or tablet, giving you instant control over colors, brightness, patterns, schedules, and lighting scenes. Once installed, there are no ladders, tangled wires, seasonal installations, or yearly removal—you can change the appearance of your home whenever you want.
MHL TrueGlow is designed as a long-term, professionally integrated addition to your home and includes a 10-year hardware warranty backed by Mueller Holiday Lights.


Permanent exterior lighting is a long-term addition to your home. The quality of the product matters—but so do the system design, installation, wire management, warranty, and support behind it.
MHL TrueGlow is not simply a consumer lighting kit attached to your soffits. It is a complete permanent-lighting system professionally designed around your property, installed for a clean finished appearance, and supported locally by Mueller Holiday Lights.
TrueGlow lights and wiring are housed inside rigid, powder-coated aluminum track. The track is custom-finished to coordinate with your soffit or exterior trim, creating a discreet daytime appearance that looks integrated with the home.
Every installation is carefully planned around the architecture, including lighting placement, track layout, power locations, control zones, and concealed wire routing. Tracks are mechanically secured with exterior-rated fasteners—never held in place with adhesive.
TrueGlow can support installations of up to 300 feet from a single power supply and controller, depending on the system design and property layout.
This allows us to complete larger installations with fewer controllers, power supplies, and separate systems. Fewer components can mean a cleaner installation, simpler app control, and fewer potential connection points.
Many consumer permanent-lighting systems are limited to approximately 200 feet, which may require additional controllers or power supplies when covering larger homes.
A permanent lighting system should look permanent. We carefully manage track placement, corners, transitions, wiring, controllers, power supplies, and weather-protected connections so the completed system looks intentional—not added on as an afterthought.
If a question or problem arises, you are not left searching online forums, diagnosing the system yourself, or trying to coordinate replacement parts with an unknown installer. You contact the same local company that designed and installed your system.
Every MHL TrueGlow installation includes:
Consumer systems place much of the responsibility for planning, installation, troubleshooting, and future service on the homeowner.
MHL TrueGlow provides a professionally integrated system, cleaner installation, longer coverage capability, clearly defined warranty protection, and a local company standing behind the finished product.
If you want permanent lighting that looks like it belongs on your home—and support that continues after installation—TrueGlow is built for that purpose.
We keep the entire TrueGlow process clear and organized—from your first inquiry through installation, app setup, and ongoing support.
After you submit our contact form, we’ll review your property information, requested lighting areas, and location to confirm that the project is within our service area.
We’ll discuss your goals, preferred coverage, timeline, budget, and how you plan to use the lighting. We may request exterior photos or schedule an in-person demonstration so you can see TrueGlow before making a decision.
Using your property information and estimated measurements, we’ll prepare a clear proposal outlining the recommended coverage and pricing.
Once you approve the quote, we’ll finalize the installation details, including:
TrueGlow materials typically require approximately two weeks for processing, although timing may vary based on track color and project requirements.
Once the project details and materials are confirmed, we’ll reserve your installation date. Most residential installations are completed within one to two days, depending on the size, access, and complexity of the property.
Approximately 24 hours before installation, you’ll receive a text or email confirming the scheduled arrival time and any access requirements.
On installation day, our team will establish a clean, organized work area and carefully install the track, lights, controller, power supplies, and concealed wiring.
Most projects only require access to the garage and exterior of the property. You generally do not need to remain home during the installation as long as the necessary areas are accessible.
After installation, we’ll complete a final system and workmanship inspection. We’ll then help you:
You’ll also receive a digital app manual and setup guide for future reference.
Your MHL TrueGlow system includes:
If you need help using the system or have a concern about your installation, you can contact Mueller Holiday Lights directly. You’ll work with a local professional who knows your system and installation—not an overseas call center.
