Hi...

Can someone tell me, is it safe to install pot lights in a bulk head I built over the sink in the wash room. From the existing ceiling I created a box (7' across , 12" high x 8" deep) this is finished with drywall. I would like to insert 3 pot lights inside this empty space.

Thanks

Luc

Can you explain what "pot" lights are?

Recessed lighting in the ceiling

These fixtures have been installed in soffits as you describe with no problems.

All recess fixtures now have thermal protectors built in if the fixture gets too hot. This will happen if too large a bulb is used.

You should not have any problems.
