How to change a recessed light bulb?

You can purchase a light bulb changer at most home improvement stores or perhaps even on line. It is a device that has flexible clamps at the end and a long handle so you can reach high. Just ask for a "light bulb changer for high ceilings".

I think you just pull it off :) We have something that looks exactly like that in our house and I got there and had to really give it heck but it slid right off and then it was just a normal bulb inside of it I had to change.

Pull the decorative ring down. it's spring loaded. Push it slightly to the side. Then unscrew the bulb and screw in the new bulb. Push the ring back in place.

The ones I had like this were a bit difficult so I purchased a suction device to affix to the "face" of the lightbulb. Then you can turn counter clockwise to remove the old bulb. You can hand start the new bulb and turn until it gets close to flush, then use the same device to fully engage the new bulb into the socket.

We have these lights. There should be a removable ring or frame around the bulb. Just remove the clips and the ring, then unscrew the bulb and replace like you would do any other...then clip the ring back on.

you can buy a telescoping tool for this job at Home Depot Walmart etc

If it is too high, get a telescoping tool to remove the cover, if you can reach it, the clear cover can be easily removed, then just like any other light bulb, unscrew and replace the bulb. Replace the cover.

Hi Emma, hope this helps you out.

Now would be a great time to replace that recessed bulb with a LED.

If it's super out of reach, there are pole gizmos that help do that. Otherwise, grab a sturdy step stool or ladder, carefully twist the bulb out, and twist the new one in. Try an LED as it's very efficient and will lower your electric bill.

Your advice was wonderful, I managed to change the bulbs
