Recessed Lighting Installation: Layout, LED Options and Dimmers for Oklahoma Homes

Recessed lighting installation is one of the highest-impact upgrades per dollar. A few rules make it look professional.

Spacing

Divide ceiling height by two for the distance between lights. In an 8-foot room, four feet apart. Keep lights 2–3 feet from walls to avoid harsh scallops.

Wafer lights vs cans

Ultra-thin LED wafers install anywhere with no housing and are ideal for retrofits. Traditional cans allow trim changes and are still preferred in some new construction.

Color temperature

2700K feels warm, 3000K is a versatile neutral, 4000K suits kitchens, garages and offices.

Dimmers

LED fixtures need LED-rated dimmers. We install smart dimmers that eliminate flicker and buzz.
