TASKING LIGHT


The popularity of open plan living means that our kitchens – and their lighting schemes – need to work on many levels to cater for all the activities that take place in them. 
Ceiling lights give off the best overall illumination, essential in kitchens for cooking, preparing food, reading recipes or doing homework.
 Combine them with localised light from spotlights, tracks or pendants for specific tasking areas and with floor or table lamps and wall lights for a more informal atmosphere for eating and relaxing.

KITCHEN LIGHT FAQS


WHAT LIGHTS DO I NEED IN THE KITCHEN?



Most kitchen lighting schemes can be broken down into two types - tasking light and ambient light. You need good general lighting for cooking and preparing food and mood or ambient lighting for eating and relaxing. Ceiling lights provide the best overall light. You can combine flush-fitting ceiling lights with hanging pendant lights over a kitchen island or dining table for general lighting and add wall lights and spotlights over specific areas in your kitchen where you need tasking light for working by.

HOW HIGH DO I NEED TO HANG A KITCHEN PENDANT?


Pendant lights in the kitchen are a great choice for a dining table or over work surfaces. As a rule of thumb, we recommend you hang pendants 70-90cms above a surface to make sure it doesn't obstruct you and you can see the person opposite you at a dining table.

Stylistically, you have free reign but we don't recommend using lights with fabric shades due to kitchen vapours and odours.

WHAT IS THE RIGHT HEIGHT FOR A WALL LIGHT?



Generally, you should aim to fit your wall light at eye level, or just above. You need to consider the height of your ceiling, the size of your fitting and features like windows, doorways, architraves and dado rails.

If in doubt, use the 'rule of thirds' and fit the lights two thirds the way up the wall.




See our guide - Lighting Your Home >

CAN I USE SPOTLIGHTS IN THE KITCHEN?



Spotlights are a great source of kitchen lighting as they can be fitted to walls and ceilings and can be angled to provide light wherever you need it. Spotlights provide a focused beam so install them where you do the most detailed work in the kitchen. We offer spotlights that are available as a one-bulb version, or on bars with multiple bulbs that can be rotated and pivoted as required, excellent for brightening up those dark nooks and crannies.

CAN I USE FABRIC SHADES IN THE KITCHEN?


Unless your is open plan or very large and you plan to use your fabric shades in a dining area, we recommend you don't use lights with shades in the 'working' part of your kitchen. Certainly not near a cooker or sink. The reason for this is that the vapours and odours produced in your kitchen would stick to your shade and will ruin the fabric over time.






DO I NEED TO USE IP-RATED LIGHTS IN A KITCHEN?


No, IP-rated lights generally only need to be used in a bathroom or outdoors where there is a risk of water ingress into the electrical parts so lights need to be sealed to prevent this from happening.

However, if you are considering fitting a light above a cooker or sink, where there is a lot of water vapour, you may wish to use an IP-rated light.



WHAT BULBS ARE BEST TO USE IN A KITCHEN?


We always recommend using LED bulbs as they are long lasting, energy efficient and cost effective. They also don't heat up like old style bulbs so are safer to handle when cleaning your lights. Most of our smaller kitchen lights are supplied with an SBC lamp holder for a 4W LED bulb (40W old style) that is more than adequate for most lighting needs. Our spotlights have a GU10 lamp holder and the larger ceiling lights are designed with a BC lamp holder for bulbs that are around 5/6W LEDs (50/60W old style).

ARE KITCHEN LIGHTS DIMMABLE?



Most lights are dimmable if you fit them with a dimmable bulb governed by a dimmer switch. It will say on the bulb's packaging whether it is dimmable or not.

Dimmable lights are an excellent choice for open plan kitchens as you can choose your lighting level according to what activities you wish to undertake in the area - brighter for cooking or working by, lower for relaxing with.
