Simple Summer Projects: Incorporate Recessed Downlights at Home

LED recessed downlights, a simple update from traditional bulbs or an alternative to track lighting, also save on costs and energy. LEDs last longer which make them an environmentally-responsible option when some can last for up to 45 or more years. With SYLVANIA, we offer a wide portfolio that allows you to not only choose the size, for example 4, 5 or 6” downlight, or style, like a baffle trim or sleek microdisk, but also the lumens and temperature. Daylight, or 5000K, makes for a productive environment while 3000K, or white, can make for a smooth hallway transition. SYLVANIA also has a 5 CCT select range so you can choose the temperature with a simple switch. These LEDs are dimmable so whichever temperature color you decide, you can dial up for brightness for daytime use or unwind in your family room spaces in the evening.

To make the switch doesn’t have to be complicated. In fact, SYLVANIA recessed downlights can come with a standard E26 medium screw base and trim – no accessories required. Top tip: a trim truly helps reduce glare, are instant on, and flicker and glare-free.

Further, we often see homes that have make the switch to recessed downlights in bathrooms. Many wet-rated and damp-rated recessed downlights help open up the bathroom spaces instead of a hanging lamp and can be directly installed over sinks, showers, and baths. When we have this design, and group them by 2- or 4-packs, we can save space and create a cohesive, unified look.

If you are thinking of designing or rethinking your home’s look this summer, incorporating recessed downlights into your home lighting look is a great and simple way to give it visual dimension. Hang pendant lights over a kitchen island then balance this look with downlights near your upper cabinets. If you are thinking of complimenting hallway lighting fixtures, recessed LED downlights are a great option for you to modernize the look, save visual space, and save money.
