1. KNOW HOW MUCH LIGHT THE ROOM NEEDS
The initial step is to assess how much lighting your room requires before installing LED downlights. To do this, multiply the room’s width and length by the total area, then multiply the result by 1.5.
2. FIGURE OUT THE RIGHT NUMBER OF FIXTURES
Now that you know the total wattage of lights required for the room, it’s time to determine the number of lights you need. You must divide it by the wattage of the LED lights you plan to use.
Note that if you install the lights in a new house, you will have to call an electrician and let them do some pre-wiring. If your home already has lights, you might consider replacing halogen downlights with modern LED alternatives.
It would be best to ask electricians to install a power plug for each light, guaranteeing safety, or you could hardwire them.
3. PLACE THE LIGHTS EVENLY
Next, you should place the lights evenly to create the maximum impact. We strongly recommend leaving a minimum of 2 feet between every smart downlight.
However, note that this is a general rule, and you might need to make minor adjustments depending on the area. Just focus on creating balanced lighting, and don’t sweat if you have to add or remove a downlight.
One way to manage the downlight installation cost is to have your builder or painter insert and secure the lights once the ceiling is complete.
This approach can significantly save the average homeowner’s electrician labour costs.
Normal downlight springs are pulled up with hands, and sometimes when the light is big, it is hard to installed by 1 hand only.
Smart springs device is added to our downlight that we can make the installation easy and fast, which save installation time and cost as well.
