Should kitchen ceiling light fittings be warm white or cool white?
Should kitchen ceiling light fittings be warm white or cool white? Bedrooms and lounges usually want 2700K to 3000K. Kitchens, baths, garages, and offices often use 3000K to 4000K. If the color keeps changing, the kit is stepping through selectable white each time power toggles. Pick the color once and stop using the wall switch as the color button.
How to decide
- Read kelvin on the spec sheet.
- A mismatched dimmer can also shift the color.
