Recessed Lighting Install with No Attic or Prior Wiring

Summary by Krater

The creator demonstrates how to install four 6-inch wafer LED lights in a room without attic access, planning the layout in SketchUp, drilling holes with a hole saw and dust bowl, checking electrical wiring with a voltage tester, fishing wire through the ceiling, and connecting the new lights.

Answers: How do you install recessed LED wafer lights in a ceiling without attic access?

• Wafer LED light installation
• Recessed lighting without attic access
• Wiring and electrical testing for ceiling lights
• Fishing wire through drywall and joists
• SketchUp room layout planning

What it concludes

• Using 6-inch wafer LED lights eliminates the need to locate ceiling joists compared to traditional can lights.
• A hole saw dust bowl effectively catches ceiling dust and debris while drilling.
• Running a toothed hole saw in reverse reduces grabbing and jumping on the ceiling.
• IC-rated 3000K wafer LED lights are inexpensive and safe to use with insulation.
• Wearing gloves during installation keeps the lights clean and prevents marking up the ceiling.
