Margaret S on Jan 18, 2012We were remodeling in the bathroom and I asked about having the popcorn ceiling in the family room removed and pot lights put in. The electrician said the rafters were going the wrong way so I couldn't have pot lights. Can anyone explain this more? ThanksHelpful Reply

Dan's of Central Florida, Inc. on Jan 18, 2012Margaret, depending on the direction thatthey are running in, and the exact spot ans way you want the lights installed or to run in a line, the rafters might be in that same spot. You can not move those rafters.Helpful Reply

Margaret S on Jan 18, 2012I wasn't that specific. I just wanted pot lights instead of the center ceiling light that I have now. So pot lights can be put in any ceiling as long as the owner is willing to be flexible about placement ? Thanks for responding.Helpful Reply

Dan's of Central Florida, Inc. on Jan 18, 2012Yes Margaret, as long as there is no ceiling support behind there you can stick them where you want. The light can support brackets do attach to the rafters, so that may limit your placement/direction as well.Helpful Reply
