While recessed lighting fixtures tend to be simply installed up among ceiling joists of any brand new development, or in the course of some serious home improvement undertakings, several recessed lighting fixtures are intended especially for retrofit purposes allowing them to go inside a pre-existing ceiling spot by way of divots designed for electrical circuitry. Nonetheless, the lighting fixtures you decide on need to be rated for usage in close proximity to insulating material if roof insulating exists. If your ceiling is not insulated, a non-insulated ceiling housing can be chosen. The reason for this is that, depending on the bulbs used, recessed lighting can generate a lot of heat, which could pose a fire risk if the heat source is located close to flammable insulation.

What type of bulbs your recessed lighting will use is an important factor to consider when choosing what units to install. The commonly used halogen bulb creates a very nice light but consumes quite a lot of power and also generates a lot of heat.

Most electricians space recessed lights equally apart from each other forming a grid pattern on the ceiling. The distance between each light generally depends on the LED wattage of your light. Here are a few rough rules of thumb for spacing when using the lights as primary lighting (if you are using the lights as accent lighting or you have other lights in your room, you can space them further apart):
