As with any home lighting products, where the lights are to be positioned goes a long way in assisting the lighting products to be utilised.
We spend a lot of our time in the kitchen, it is the hub of family life, you can eat, cook and chat. It is a room in which many functions are carried out.
The kitchen requires a higher level of home lighting as it is a place where safety is key. With hot liquids, hot surfaces and electrical appliances the better the light needs to be.
To achieve a more even distribution of light a central light is ideal or even a multi headed halogen spotlight can achieve this. Another idea would be halogen downlighters either used on their own or in conjunction with a central light.
The use of home lighting to illuminate work surfaces is another good idea. It is very important though that these lights run cool, especially when the storage of food is concerned. Ensure though the light falls on the work surface there is nothing worse than working in your own shadow.
If your kitchen is also used for dining then it may be a good idea to have separate lighting for this area as the kitchen lighting may be a little startling. Or alternatively if you are able to turn the main body of lights off and just have a subtle blend of downlights. Either way your home lighting in the kitchen can be implemented to suit both your lifestyle and your budget.
Another idea for a kitchen is the use of a ceiling fan. It can light your kitchen and also keep the surrounding air nice and cool. Available in various different styles and finishes there is a fan to suit everyones style. Available in 36”, 42” and 52” blade sizes there is also a fan to suit all kitchen sizes from the small to the larger end of the scale. When choosing a fan it is more efficient to run a larger fan on a slower speed than a smaller fan on a higher speed.
Installing a fan is similar to installing a light but you must ensure that the fan blade tips are at least 20cm away from any obstruction. If you have a high ceiling a drop rod and a conversion kit may be required.
All home lighting can be as inexpensive or as expensive as you want. When choosing kitchen lighting remember to take into account the drop of the fittings and where they are to be positioned. The pendant you have chosen may look fantastic in the showroom but not very practical on your ceiling when you cant open your cupboard doors near it. If you have the use of a dimmer switch in your kitchen double check the lights you are buying can be dimmed, a lot of halogen fittings cannot be dimmed and can cause problems, transformers blowing, buzzing noises are to name just a few of the issues that could arise.
