Hi all,
I had recessed lighting installed in my family room a few month ago, and I have a few problems with them. The burnout rate is very high: I have 12 cans, and I already had to change about 10 bulbs in this few months.
The fixtures are 4'', bulbs -- 50W, and I have 2 dimmers -- each controlling 6 lights. The bulb goes in very deep -- almost all of it is above the reflector (is it normal?). Maybe I am bying wrong bulbs?
Maybe I have to use a socket extender?
Also what's the deal with energy-saving bulbs? Would you recommend them?
Thanks a lot for your help.
