6-Inch Non-IC Recessed Lighting Housing by Elite
The B6-AT from Elite is a 6-inch non-IC recessed lighting housing designed for new ceiling installations. It is suitable for damp locations. Key features include a 150-watt maximum rating, R40 and PAR38 lamp compatibility, and a 7-1/4-inch housing height.
Key Features and Benefits of This Recessed Housing
The 150-watt rating gives you room to use R40 or PAR38 lamps for broad, bright downlighting. A 6-inch trim size is a common choice for general room lighting. Damp-location rating means the housing can also serve covered areas such as bathrooms, not only dry rooms.
Where to Use the B6-AT Recessed Housing
This housing is well suited for living rooms, kitchens, hallways, and bathrooms where recessed lights are planned. It is rated for damp locations, not wet locations, so keep it out of direct water spray. It is a housing, so a compatible trim and lamp are needed to finish the light.
Installation and Compatibility Checks
Non-IC means the housing is not rated for direct contact with insulation, so keep insulation clear of it. It fits ceilings from 1/2 to 1-3/8 inches thick. Confirm your ceiling clearance for the 7-1/4-inch height, and choose a 6-inch trim and lamp that match.
Additional Buying Context
The housing is UL and CSA listed. Voltage, finish, and warranty are not listed on the page, so review the linked specification sheet for those details before you plan the full recessed layout.
