New Construction Lighting

Elliot Larkin

I've seen people talk about integrated LED fixtures vs traditional light fixtures that take normal LED bulbs. For rentals, is there any reason to install the integrated LED fixtures - I feel like they are going to cause enormous handyman costs in the long run compared to replacing a bulb or two. Thoughts?

I am building new construction homes and I've requested Recessed Cans on the plans and the electrician put in LED integrated fixtures...moving forward, I am embarking on building a 2 story duplex where the ceiling between the first and second floor is fire rated. Do typical recessed cans do the trick for a 1 hour fire rating?
