Fluorescent and LED recessed lights are commonly used in thousands of home kitchens & bathrooms, offices & commercial spaces, hotels, hospitals, medical waiting & exam rooms, churches, and educational facilities. Fluorescent and LED lighting is a cost-effective and an excellent and efficient way to illuminate a room. Most people will agree that old-fashioned harsh fluorescent lighting and super bright LEDs aren’t desirable. So, what is the solution?
What is a common recessed light light diffuser?
A “diffuser” is any material that scatters light, but it’s most commonly applied in the form of a light panel or cover. The main purpose of a diffuser is to diffuse (or “spread out”) light. It makes bright or harsh light softer across a wider area and eliminates some unwanted glare.
Common recessed light diffusers are often made of clear prismatic acrylics, which can be extremely bright. They are also commonly made of polystyrene, which is brittle and yellows over time.
Why should I use premium quality panels for my lighting?
There are many proven advantages to using higher quality diffusers to further soften fluorescent and LED lighting and reduce glare. These panels typically do not become brittle or turn yellow. If those doing renovations were aware of this low-cost method of dressing up recessed lighting, they would be much more likely to avoid the hassle and high cost of making a drastic change to alternative lighting methods. The result is an effective lighting solution that can also have a decorative element to it.
Some great benefits:
1. Less stress/better mood
Fluorescent lights are harsh on your eyes and it is believed by some experts that the glare and flicker of fluorescent bulbs (no matter how subtle) can have an effect on stress, headaches, migraines, and other issues related to your nervous system. Diffusing the light by adding a premium light panel — either plain, featuring a serene scene, or an attractive pattern — can help decrease stress and improve your overall mood.
2. Improved productivity
Diffused, softer light makes concentrating on a task, work, or schoolwork much easier than the harshness of commonly sold fluorescent panels. With greater concentration comes greater productivity, which is beneficial for businesses, schools, and homes as well.
3. Reduced fatigue
It may not be obvious, but after being under fluorescent or bright LED lights for a long period of time, it can start to make you feel tired. Enhancing light diffusion allows eyes to be less strained, which allows for more energy and better mental sharpness throughout the day.
