Recessed lighting installation in Vandalia: local conditions matter
Southwest Michigan properties range from downtown storefronts to farmhouses with barns and outbuildings. Around Vandalia, that often means long wire runs, older panels and circuits that have been extended more than once. We plan recessed lighting installation with the whole system in mind.
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 Vandalia homes with attics above, we use airtight fixtures so heated air is not lost through the ceiling in winter.
