Questions We Hear Most

How do Nora recessed lights work?

A recessed light is either two parts (a housing above the ceiling and a trim you see) or one piece: an LED retrofit for an existing can, or a can-less downlight. Each Nora page tells you which parts you need.

Can I upgrade my old cans to LED?

Yes. Nora LED retrofits slip into existing 4", 5" or 6" cans and connect through the old bulb socket, so you get dimmable LED without opening the ceiling.

Which size should I choose?

4" suits most rooms and hallways, 5" and 6" give a wider spread for kitchens and living areas, and 1"–2" pinhole styles are for accent lighting (our guide).
