How far apart should I space my LED recessed lights?

Installing recessed lighting, especially LED recessed lights, can be a great way to add style and ambiance. However, LED lights produce less light and require that you use tighter spacing when you install them.

To determine how far apart your LED recessed lights should be spaced, first decide the size and color of bulbs you expect to install. Determine also the pupose these lights will serve and how far away from your lighted space you'll place them. Have someone hold test lights at various spacing, then judge from the light they produce to determine how far apart they should be installed.
