One last note regarding recessed light sizes. For sloped ceilings, I prefer the appearance of 4-inch adjustable lights more than 6-inch adjustable lights because they're less obtrusive. For immense rooms or rooms with tall ceilings, I recommend utilizing 6-inch lights for general lighting and 4-inch lights for mission and accent lighting.
Visual Preference-Consider the scale of the room. Just keep in mind that it's perfectly acceptable to mix sizes throughout a home. Keep in mind-If you already have recessed lighting in other parts of your house, consider matching their size for consistency.
I recommend using the following approach. Most homes use a combination of 4inch and 6inch lights, and these two sizes have the largest selection.Ĭompared to recessed lights of the same size, it is easy to assume that 6-inch lights are brighter than 4-inch lights. While this was true with incandescent recessed lights, it is not true with LEDs. A 4-inch LED recessed light is typically equivalent to a 6-inch light in terms of brightness and beam spread. Because of this, choosing the best size LED recessed light for a room is more of an aesthetic decision than a functional one. LED recessed lights for homes typically range from 2 inches to 6 inches in size.
