Recessed lighting, most commonly known in Canada as pot lights, is a light fixture installed right into the ceiling. The light fixture is installed above the ceiling light, but thin trim might be on top of the ceiling material. No part of a pot light is hanging down or visible, when installed properly.<\/p>\n

Most homes will have pot lights installed in some area. It might be for lighting the basement, or as task lighting in the kitchen or bathroom. You\u2019ll also find pot lights in commercial and industrial settings, because they can brightly light large spaces and showrooms.<\/p>\n

Warning: Installing pot lights requires special electrical permits and should be done by a professional and licensed electrician.\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
