Layout matters more than the number of lights. We space fixtures according to ceiling height and what the room is used for, keep them off the walls enough to avoid harsh scallops, and put them on dimmers. In Bent homes with insulated attics we use fixtures rated for contact with insulation.

In southern New Mexico's desert, Bent summers push air conditioning, coolers, and well pumps hard for months at a time, and monsoon storms bring lightning and short outages. Heat is tough on breakers, and the sun is tough on anything installed outside.

Depending on your address, power in Otero County typically comes from PNM or Otero County Electric Cooperative. When a job involves the meter or the service connection, we coordinate the shutoff and reconnection with the utility.

Our recessed lighting installation covers all of Bent, along with neighboring Mescalero, Tularosa, High Rolls Mountain Park, and La Luz.

Recessed Lighting Installation FAQs for Bent

How many recessed lights do I need?

A common rule is to space them at about half the ceiling height, so four feet apart for an eight-foot ceiling, then adjust for the room's use. We lay it out with you before cutting.

Can recessed lights go in a ceiling without attic access?

Usually yes. Slim LED fixtures need very little depth, and we can fish cable between openings.

Do recessed lights raise my electric bill?

LED recessed lights use a fraction of the power of old incandescent cans. Converting usually lowers the bill.
