Common Questions

Planning & Layout

  • How many pot lights do I need in a room?
    The number depends on the room's size, ceiling height, and desired brightness (lumens). A common rule of thumb for general lighting is to space the lights about half the distance of the ceiling height. For example, for an 8-foot ceiling, space them about 4 feet apart. Task areas (like a kitchen counter) may need more concentrated lighting.

  • How far should pot lights be from the wall?
    To ensure even light distribution and avoid a "cave effect" or shadows, place lights approximately 2 to 3 feet away from the wall.

  • What size pot lights should I use?

    • Smaller sizes (3"–4") are ideal for task or accent lighting.

    • Larger sizes (5"–6") are better for general, ambient lighting and higher ceilings.

  • What is the best color temperature (warm vs. cool)?
    Color temperature impacts the room's mood. Warm light (~2700K–3500K) creates a cozy, comfortable atmosphere best for bedrooms and living rooms. Neutral or cool light (~4000K–5000K) is brighter and improves focus, making it suitable for kitchens, bathrooms, and workspaces.

Installation & Safety

  • Do I need a certified electrician to install pot lights?
    Yes, for safety and to comply with local electrical safety codes, all electrical work should be performed by a licensed electrical contractor.

  • Can pot lights be installed in a finished ceiling?
    Yes, "remodel" or "cut-in" cans are designed for existing ceilings. Installation may require cutting access holes, which an electrician might patch, or leave for a handyman/contractor.

  • Are pot lights a fire hazard?
    Pot lights are generally safe when installed correctly. A fire hazard can occur if the fixture comes into direct contact with insulation, which can trap heat. Ensure you use IC-rated (Insulation Contact) fixtures designed for use near insulation and follow manufacturer guidelines.

Product & Maintenance

  • How long do LED pot lights last?
    LED pot lights have a very long lifespan, often rated for 50,000 hours or more, meaning they can last for many years without needing bulb replacements.

  • Do I need a "can" (housing) for LED pot lights?
    Many modern LED pot lights are "canless" or wafer lights, with the necessary components integrated into a slim unit with an attached junction box, simplifying installation.

  • Why are my pot lights flickering or turning off by themselves?
    Flickering can be due to voltage/current issues or a poor connection. Lights turning off and on intermittently usually means the fixture is overheating, activating a built-in thermal protector. This often happens if the wrong wattage bulb is used or if the light is installed without a proper IC box in an insulated area.
