An all-white trim for a seamless ceilingThe HV4-TH4001-FWH is a
baffle trim for 4-inch recessed lighting. Its
matte white baffle and white trim ring are designed to melt into a white ceiling, so that when the lights are off you barely notice them. When they are on, the ribbed baffle controls stray reflections and gives a soft, comfortable light. It is the natural choice for minimalist interiors, Scandinavian-style kitchens and any room where the ceiling should stay visually quiet.
Which bulb to useThis trim accepts a
P20 bulb with a 50W rating. Choosing an
LED P20 bulb is the easy upgrade: it stays cooler, needs replacing far less often and uses much less energy than halogen. Pick the colour temperature to suit the room: warm white for bedrooms and living areas, neutral white for kitchens and bathrooms, cooler white for garages, workshops and retail counters.
Installing the trimThe trim goes in once a qualified person has mounted and wired the
4-inch recessed housing. Cut the power at the electrical panel, confirm that the housing accepts this trim series, install the bulb, then press the trim up into the housing until the ring sits flush with the ceiling. Replacing tired or yellowed trims with this one is also a quick way to refresh older
pot lights during a renovation, without cutting new holes.
Matte white, white or black?A matte white baffle offers the most discreet look and hides fingerprints and small marks better than a glossy surface. A black baffle version of the same trim exists for a high-contrast modern style, and a regular white baffle is also available. For accent lighting, the
4-inch gimbal trim in brushed brass lets you point light at artwork, shelving or a feature wall.
Easy upkeepClean the trim with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, always with the power off and the bulb cool. Skip abrasive products, which could polish the matte surface. With an LED bulb in place, your recessed lights stay bright and consistent for years with almost no maintenance.
