Hi,
I'm installing a recessed light in my soon-to-be enclosed boiler room. The boiler room will have 5/8" thick fire rated drywall ceiling and walls. Here's my question: Do I need a special fire-rated recessed light can? Do I need to make a 5/8" drywall box all around the light, in between the ceiling joists? Or do I just use any standard recessed light can and move along with my work? What is the right thing to do?
Thanks, Theodore
