This 6″ IC rated housing is suitable for new construction in residential and commercial applications and for direct contact with insulation. Integral thermal guards protect against improper lamping and misuse of insulation materials with lamp wattage ratings and apertures based off trim selection. Designed for slope ceiling installation with a 2/12 to 6/12 pitch, the socket pivots to allow the lamp to be aimed straight down regardless of ceiling pitch. The airtight housing limits the exchange of air between ceiling plenum and heated/cooled areas. The housing adjusts from 0.5” to 1.5” to accommodate ceiling thickness and its 7.5” height allows it to be used in 2” x 8” joist construction.
- Designed for sloped ceiling installations with compatibility for roof pitches from 2/12 to 6/12
- Pivoting socket allows the lamp to aim straight down regardless of ceiling angle, ensuring optimal light distribution
- IC-rated housing is approved for direct contact with insulation, making it ideal for energy-efficient new construction applications
- Airtight construction helps reduce air leakage between conditioned living spaces and ceiling plenums for improved energy performance
- Adjustable housing accommodates ceiling thicknesses from 0.5 inch to 1.5 inches and features a 7.5-inch height suitable for standard 2-inch x 8-inch joist construction
