Want to add pot lights to a finished ceiling without tearing it down? The 4" remodel housing with medium base socket (SKU RF402) is the remodel recessed light housing, the "can" of the pot light, that installs from below through a cut-out in an existing ceiling. With a 120V, 50W rating and a standard medium base socket, it lets you bring clean recessed lighting into a kitchen, living room, hallway or basement that is already drywalled, then finish it with a 4" trim of your choice.

A remodel housing is made for renovation: no need to open the whole ceiling or reach the framing from above. Mark the location, cut the opening, pull the cable, connect, and push the housing up into place. Because it uses a medium base socket, you keep full freedom over the bulb: choose the LED lamp that suits each room, warmer or cooler light, and swap it easily later. Once the housing is in, add a matching 4" trim for a neat, discreet finish that looks like it was always there.

This remodel pot light housing is a smart choice for Canadian homes being updated room by room, condos where the ceiling cannot be opened, and small shops or offices getting a lighting refresh. It is perfect over kitchen counters, in hallways, bathrooms, closets and family rooms. Plan one housing per light, pair each with its trim and bulb, and modernize your lighting with minimal mess.

Made for renovation
The RF402 is a 4" remodel housing, designed to be installed in an existing, finished ceiling. Unlike a new construction housing that is fastened to the joists before the drywall, a remodel housing goes in from below through a round opening cut in the ceiling. That makes it the go-to option for adding pot lights to an older home, replacing a single ceiling fixture with several recessed lights, or lighting a condo where the ceiling structure cannot be opened.

Medium base socket for bulb freedom
This housing has a medium base socket, the familiar screw-in socket used by standard household bulbs. You can choose the LED bulb that best suits each room, adjust the atmosphere with a warmer or cooler colour of light, and replace the bulb in seconds when needed. The name specifies a 120V, 50W rating; always choose a lamp that respects the markings of the housing and trim.

Installation in an existing ceiling
Plan the layout and check for joists, ducts and pipes above each location with a stud finder or a small inspection hole. Trace and cut the opening, fish the supply cable to each location and connect it according to the installation instructions and your local electrical code. Push the housing up into the ceiling so it sits firmly against the drywall, then install a compatible 4" trim and the bulb. Have a licensed electrician make all connections to the circuit.

Choosing the trim
The trim sets the final look and the light effect. A baffle trim reduces glare and gives a soft, even glow; an adjustable trim lets you aim the light at artwork, a fireplace or a kitchen island; a black or white finish can blend with the ceiling or create a contrast. Choose trims made for this 4" housing for a clean fit, flush with the ceiling.

Where it shines
Kitchens and islands, hallways, bathrooms, walk-in closets, basements, home offices and small commercial spaces such as boutiques, salons and clinics. Wherever you want to upgrade to recessed lights without a major renovation, count one RF402 per location, add the trims and bulbs, and enjoy a brighter, more modern space.
