Is the light suitable for a covered porch?

We have not installed it yet, but have looked at it and it's great quality! Ours will be a bathroom chandelier. Manuf. would better be able to respond about an outdoor porch and the elements. I'm sure it would look great, though!

No idea. Mine is inside and I don't think I would hang outside but need to check with manufacturers recommendations

I'm not sure.. The metal appears to be a painted finish, but I'm not positive it would last in damp conditions.

It would look nice, but it does not put out a lot of light. It would really depend on how much light you need in that space.

Not sure, I currently am using a 60 watt bulb for my outdoor front porch fixture that is enclosed and under cover. Also in a lamp in an interior room in the house. Works great with a regular light bulbs of 60 watt.

Pilot light is strong. It is located on the left side of the unit. Don't think you will have a problem if the fan isn't pointed directly at it. I have a fan located on the left side and higher than the unit itself and have no problems. On a covered patio should be ok unless you have very high winds.

i've got mine on a covered porch, its been working fine for about 6months. Its not really bright, but plenty to see to get your key in the door.

I would not use this light in an outdoor application. Both the top and bottom are open, exposing the bulbs and housing to the elements. There are better choices.

This lamp does not have an all weather enclosure, but if you place it in a protected area, it should be fine outdoors.You will need the proper socket for it to work.

You would have to have a shroud big enough to fit the light. Other than that, I can see no reason why this wouldn't work as a recessed light. That being said you would have to have a pretty substantial sized shroud. I know in my backyard, they are not recessed.

Yes, plenty of light. I have it over a small dining area as well. It can also use up to a 150 watt bulb.

I've been able to use these on my outdoor deck, but I would only do so if there is minimal moisture and the light fixture is covered.

The bulb is well hidden...although I don't use an energy saving bulb in this fixture. I'm sure it would be fine though.

This model is designed to used on a outside, covered area such as a porch. I doubt that a light kit would be a good idea since the fan is "damp rated". Lamp kits are not intended for outdoor use.

I believe it would work provided the switch on the light was left in the ON position, your porch switch would then control power to the light. There is an identical light on Amazon that has a motion sensor in it that is advertised as a porch light. You may want to look at that one too.

I have this installed in a fixture that is fully open to the elements but it is covered by my patio. As a CFL bulb, they are not recommended to be in completely enclosed fixtures so I would imagine it is okay as long as it is not open to rain and heavy wind.

It is not a weather sealed outdoor light, but if it is under a roof where no rain would hit it, it would be ok.

You could probably use it on a screened in porch. It's only lit by a tea-candle. I have mine on my wall and it looks beautiful - I rarely use it though. It's become more for decor for me.

Ours is on a covered porch and is holding up great. I wouldn't recommend leaving it uncovered outside in the weather year-round.
