These self piercing screws do work, took me 2 seconds to drill them in. Not sure what all the comments are about them not drilling in easily. Installed 2 this morning and all 4 screws drilled in like butter. Maybe needs more pressure than the others were expecting.

What is the diameter of the opening of the decorative ring?
@Westinghouselighting2 ай бұрын
Thank you for your question. The inside diameter of the white decorative medallion included with our recessed light converter kit is 4 inches. This white decorative medallion does not need to be used for installation as it is decorative.

Beware, If your pendant has a sconce that doesn't cover the silver disc, you're stuck looking at the disc or the clumsy white cover they give you. Neither are good trade offs. This is good for flush mounts, not pendants😢

I just installed 4 of these to convert some recessed lighting to wide angle wall-wash lights in our living room. It works well, but not without some installation difficulty. First, I could not get the supposedly self-tapping screws to self-tap. I had to use a drill to get those screws installed into the can walls. Also, my homebuilder used caulk around the recessed light fixtures. This caused a problem since the cans were mounted above the ceiling sheetrock. The solution was to remove the caulk with a knife, loosen screws inside the can, and pull it down so it was nearly flush with the ceiling surface. The instructions state that the decorative medallion would be held in place with by the light fixture's canopy. This was not the case since I could not fit the fixture's base mounting plate, which has a flange on it, through the opening in the medallion. The flange would push the medallion up by at least 3/8 inch. It was too large. So I had to use the base mounting plate on top of the medallion in order to make it work. Once screwed down, the plate held the medallion in place, but it had to be carefully centered. Also, placing the medallion against the ceiling left a small, non-uniform gap around it, which could not be eliminated. It is not very noticeable, but this could be improved. Finally, the medallion's high profile outer ring made it very difficult to tighten the screws around the fixture's canopy. You could not angle even a thin screwdriver in to the screw satisfactorily to get it tightened. I did manage to tighten the screws with a tiny screwdriver, some difficulty and extra time. It works, but I would suggest some improvements to the design for more universal use of this adapter.

For the self piercing screws, use a hammer and a heavy heavy duty nail to make holes. Then Drill the screws in SLOWLY! You have to use the drill SLOW for metal. After hours of trying to figure out how to make this work- this method took me 5 minutes.

While attaching the green grounding wire to the side of the recessed can, it won’t screw tightly, rather just sits there. Is this ok or does it need to be screwed tightly?
@Westinghouselighting8 ай бұрын
Thank you for your question. The green ground screw should be secured completely to the side of the recessed can. If you are having an issue with the ground screw attaching properly, please send an email to contact Westinghouse Lighting Consumer Support Division for assistance at [email protected]

I found on my single ended bulbs that one specific end is dead - and the other end is live. I tried it one way and they didn't work. So, I swapped ends - and they worked. I ended up marking all my bulbs - 10 in all, with the word "live" on one end (the end with some mfrs. labeling), and dead on the plain end.

Adding pendants can be a beautiful addition to any kitchen island but installing 📏 them can be tricky. Here are our top tips to help you: 1. Hang them about 28-36 inches above your surface. 2. Make sure they are no less than 12 inches from the ceiling. 3. As a general rule, hang them around 24 inches apart. 4. Check that your pendants are adjustable before purchasing.

why there is 3 wires? can it be installed in 2 wires AC only?
@Westinghouselighting Жыл бұрын
Hello: Normally, there are 3 wires coming from the ceiling (1 live, 1 neutral and 1 ground) and they must all be connected to the Windsquare. The ground wire is basic protection against damage to the fixture and/or your home. We do not recommend installing this without the three wires listed above and suggest you reach out to an electrician for further assistance. Thank you!

1. Scale your exterior light against the height of your door or garage. A good rule of thumb is to find something 1/3 to 1/4 the height of your door/garage. 2. For an inviting feel at your front door stick to light bulbs with a color temperature of 2700K to 3000K, or warm white light. Anything cooler than that, such as 4000K or 5000K will be too blue. 3. Adding a path light along stairs, decks, and walkways can not only help with safety concerns but also add ambient light to increase curb appeal. #lightingtips #westinghouselighting

1. Hang your chandelier 30-34 inches above your table to ensure a cozy atmosphere without blocking anyone’s view. 2. We recommend that you choose a chandelier with a width or diameter that is 12 inches or smaller than your table so no one bumps their head when sitting or standing. 3.
