Northern Michigan gets its power from Consumers Energy, from cooperatives such as Great Lakes Energy, Cherryland Electric and Presque Isle Electric and Gas, and from a few municipal utilities.

Getting recessed lighting right

The difference between a good recessed lighting job and a poor one is layout. Too few lights leave scallops and shadows. Too many make a ceiling look like an airport runway. As a starting point we space fixtures at about half the ceiling height, then adjust for cabinets, beams and seating. In Idlewild homes with attics above, we use airtight fixtures so heated air is not lost through the ceiling in winter.
