What kind of bulbs can I use in a pendant light?

• <div><p>Pendant lights are very versatile, and you can almost always find one with your preferred style that accepts your preferred bulb. Today, many fixtures use LED bulbs, though it’s still completely possible to find one that uses halogen, fluorescent, or even old-school incandescent bulbs. The manual that comes with your light should tell what types of bulbs you can use with it. </p></div>

How long does it take to install a light fixture?

• <div><p>Installing a light fixture usually takes about <b>one to two hours</b> for a standard ceiling-mounted fixture, and longer for more extensive installations. The installation time can vary depending on the type of fixture, whether you’re installing a new fixture or replacing an old one, and any additional wiring or drywall work required to finish around the new fixture. When hiring an electrician to install your light fixture, ask them to provide a time estimate based on the specifics of your project.</p></div>

Q: Are LED lights better?

• <div><p>LED lights are certainly more energy-efficient, using 75% less energy than incandescent bulbs&mdash;this can help you save on your utility bills during what is an already expensive holiday season. In addition, LED lights last much longer than incandescent bulbs, about 25% longer. That said, they are also a bit more expensive than incandescent Christmas lights, and emit a bluish hue which some people don't like, compared to the golden glow of an incandescent bulb.</p></div>

Q: Where should I place recessed lights in the kitchen?

• <div><p>When it comes to installing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/where-to-place-recessed-lights-in-kitchen.htm">recessed lights in your kitchen</a>, place them over areas where you perform specific tasks. This includes over the countertops, sink, and dishwasher to provide illumination when you&rsquo;re working in these areas. Make sure to space them 12 inches apart from each other and up to 18 inches away from the cabinets.</p></div>

Q: What rooms should I use recessed lighting in?

• <div><p>This is definitely a matter of personal taste, but certain spaces might be better suited to recessed lighting than others. Areas where you need good task lighting, such as the laundry room, kitchen, or home office could be good candidates for recessed LED lighting. You also might choose to use it for a sleek, subtle lighting option in a living room where you want to highlight other aspects of the space.</p></div>

Jon, Ler and Emanuel L were the crew who installed 5 piers on the corner of my house. They were very efficient, and left things looking exactly as before they did the job. I received updates as their work progressed.

The installer did a very good job. The only hang up was the bracket for my shower seat. The package was labeled for a right side bracket, but a left side bracket was inside the page. It was mislabeled at the warehouse. Certainly not the installers fault. Bath Planet scheduled a time to come...
