Can these be installed in a ceiling with insulation?

Yes, these be installed in a ceiling with insulation. All of our lights have the CE certificate and will not cause any fire hazard, just rest assured!

If you had a drafty attic and you put these on your ceiling, they would help. A better solution would be to install more insulation in your attic.

I'll say yes, with this caveat: Like any halogen bulb these things get hot and they really should not be used in an enclosed fixture with no airflow or very bad airflow. I put these in a chandelier in my parent's house that really did not have good airflow, just a small opening at the top; and in that situation the lifetime of the bulbs is shortened.

You can use these anywhere you please. Just be sure they get screwed into something solid. Even if used on a ceiling, they need to "bite" into the wood underneath. If you only screw them into the plaster/drywall etc. they will just pull out when a load is applied. Hope this helps.

I used my wall mounts on the ceiling. They're just fine. You can't mount them "in-ceiling" if that's the question.

Most customers mount these on the ceiling and cover the room below. Hope that answers your question. Thanks

Yes they will adhere to the ceiling fine. When the heat is turned on they have a tendency to fall of the wall. Not all of them but a few will come off of the wall because of the adhesive. Be sure to purchase an extra bag of adhesive strips. They have been on my wall for 2 years and I have never had to replace more than 5-6 a year. The glow in the dark is beautiful. Just be sure to put them on the right side during installation.

No, I am using them in an exposed wall mounted fixture. However they are located in a spot that cannot be touched easily.

I am NOT in construction but I see no reason why foam insulation would be a problem. The light gives off very little to no heat, so if heat from the light is your concern, it shouldn't be.

I don't think so. They are designed for the ceiling. It's also is about 8 in depth if you can fit that in your wall

Not a good idea if the ceiling fan has an enclosed cover. These bulbs are halogen and get hot and have a small candelabra base. I don't think your ceiling fan has a candelabra base.

Yes, I believe they can. These have the same screw size as regular light bulbs. However, they are curly light bulbs and as such, will be slightly longer than regular light bulbs. I was going to use these in the overhead fan in my dining room but my family freaked out at the bright light, LOL. So yes, they would fit, but they will be super bright up there.

yes it can be installed in the ceiling, or the wall, where ever there is room for it. I installed mine in the ceiling to replace an old fan.

I installed it in successfully in the wall of my shed because there was no insulation or drywall involved. As others have noted, it is possible, if you buy the mounting kit or are creative and/or skilled enough. To install one in a typical home wall you should look for one specifically engineered for that location. Wall models usually have double flap doors to keep the weather out better and will have a section that extends into the the wall to keep the insulation where it should be.

By no IC in ceiling, I assume you are saying there is no insulation in ceiling. IC refers to "insulation contact". An IC rated fixture can contact insulation, a Non-IC fixture is not rated to contact insulation so must have no insulation around it. These fixtures do get very hot and need air circulation around them. Good for ceilings with attic crawl space above. Not sure appropriate for limited space. Doubt they sweat.

You can install these in a room with a finished ceiling. You just have to locate the studs to secure the screws to. I have some in my garage with a finished ceiling and they look good. I have some white shelves and some metallic finished ones. They are clean looking shelves, not industrial factory looking metal. Should work for you. Hope this helps.

Yes you can. I bought these a few weeks ago. Took 10 minutes to install using the supplied wiring. The temperature cannot be regulated, but this is not a problem as they only become pleasantly warm, not hot. You will need to wear gloves over them to feel their effectiveness.
