Recessed Light - Shallow Ceiling
I have a problem with light in my kitchen.
I want to put in some recessed lights but have limited clearance.
Above the kitchen is a bathroom with a poured concrete floor. This
leaves me 5" of clearance from the subfloor (planks supporting the
concrete) to the bottom of the joists.
I have found IC recessed lights as shallow as 5 1/4" but that's as close
as I can get. There are non-IC lights that fit in the space but with
only 1" of clearance above (which makes me nervous).
The ceiling is out so I have full access at the moment.
Ideas?
Thanks,
