With people spending more times in their homes due to social distancing, they may want to undertake small projects inside the house such as painting to give rooms a given room a nice update. There are a large number of homes that have recessed lighting in them. Typically this lighting was installed 10+ years ago. Over the years styles may change or that trim that was shining nice and bright when it was new, has slowly yellowed over time and this may stand out when you put a fresh coat of paint on your ceiling. An upgrade to these recessed lights can easily be made by a licensed electrician.
Why Should I Upgrade?
To provide a more updated look - replacing the yellowing trim with something bright and clean or getting rid of a black baffle trim that may seem dated.
No modifications to existing fixtures or the ceiling is required.
To save money - Most recessed lights with conventional bulbs utilize 65 watts vs an LED retrofit kit which for the same amount of light, utilizes only 7.6 watts.
How much can I save? - If on the average you use the existing fixture for 6 hours per day, you will save around $13 / year just on this fixture alone with an LED retrofit! Think about how much you can save switching out a whole room!
