Frequently Asked Questions

A wafer light is a type of ultra thin, canless recessed light that installs directly into a ceiling without traditional recessed housing. Its slim design makes it especially useful for shallow ceiling spaces, renovations, and areas with limited clearance.

Many NuWatt recessed lights can work with compatible smart dimmers and switches, allowing you to control brightness through an app or smart home system. Compatibility depends on the specific fixture and control. NuWatt also offers dedicated smart recessed lights with color and brightness control through an app.

Yes! NuWatt IC rated canless recessed lights allow both the LED light module and the junction box to be in direct contact with or covered by ceiling insulation.

Not exactly. Wet rated recessed lights are designed to withstand moisture and direct water exposure in covered outdoor ceilings and showers. However, wet rated does not mean the fixture can be submerged in water or exposed to high pressure water jets.

No, NuWatt wet rated recessed lights are not suitable for saunas or steam showers. These environments expose fixtures to extreme heat, humidity, and steam, requiring specialized ratings. Only install a fixture if its specifications explicitly approve it for those conditions.
