Pot Light Upgrades


Pot lights are a lighting option that shine out of the ceiling and give a nice calm ambience throughout your home.  LED pot lights consume less energy and are long lasting. There are also many different options when it comes to potlights upgrades.  You can get different lighting at 3000, 4000 or 5000k depending on the mood you are wanting in each room.  This is how colour temperature or light appearance and is measured in degrees of Kelvin from 1000K to 10 000K.  3000 K light is orange which feels more warm. 4000K is more white in colour and feels clean and precise.  5000K is more blue in colour and feels vibrant. 

There are new pot lights called slim lines. When these are installed in your attic you will not lose any insolation or R-value in your home. It is even possible to fish the wires in even on main floor of a two story house. Which means no unnecessary holes in your ceiling. There are also different types of trims that you can choose from. Adding dimmers is also a nice option that helps you gain more control over the amount of light you want.

When choosing pot lights it is important to think about the different options available to you. Our electrician can help you with this by showing you different options and giving advice on  how many lights and the placement of each light that is best for each room.
