Recessed lights are notorious for being inefficient. These can lights can be extremely leaky and waste a lot of energy as air leaks in or out.™ In addition, they often require a certain amount of clearance between the light housing and the insulation, leaving a few sq ft of uninsulated area in your ceiling. Our air sealing recessed light covers are designed to solve both of these problems.™ According to third party testing, our light insulation cover reduces heat loss through a standard down light by 96.8%.
These patented TENMAT® recessed lighting covers are made of a fire resistant, flexible material and are designed to install easily over standard recessed light fixtures. Simply place the cover over the light and use Handi-Foam to air seal and hold it in place. The light fixture can then be safely covered with can light insulation covers. Use only energy efficient lamps (CFLs or PARs) with these recessed light insulation covers to avoid overheating older fixtures.
