Plan recessed lighting like a pro: how many cans you need, 4 inch vs 6 inch, spacing from walls, color temperature and dimmer compatibility.
Divide ceiling height by two for spacing – an 8 ft ceiling means lights roughly 4 ft apart. Keep fixtures 2–3 ft from walls.
4 inch wafer LEDs suit modern rooms and low ceilings; 6 inch provides broader spread in large rooms.
2700K is warm and cozy; 3000K is neutral for kitchens; 4000K suits garages and offices.
Pair recessed lights with pendants or under-cabinet LEDs on separate dimmers. See our lighting installation service.
