I am looking for a preferably 3-4" recessed remodel light that is IC rated but can’t seem to find it, I find it hard to believe I’m the only one that would ever want this.
Looking to add 4 cans to my master BR which is on the top floor and has blown in insulation above it. I may be able to do a top down newconstruction installation but that would be such a pain.
-edit-
For the record, I have found 5" options.
and yes, I understand that IC ratings and remodel fixtures moderately opposing.
you’re gonna get a shower when you cut the hole to try to cram up and old work style fixture anyways, I’ve been doing a lot of the like here at work, hole saw a 3/4" hole, and I have a chunk of Pex tubing i cut at an angle i shove up through to go dig or cut out the fiberglass neatly so i don’t have to hunt around looking.
I can get you these with just about any trim that you want on it. http://www.iuseelite.com/pdf/B4IC_Baffle.pdf
I don’t think it’d be all that hard to take care of, not something I hadn’t envisioned but thanks for the tip.
Not a remodel
I’ve haven’t’ seen the IC cans that small - you might have to box them from the top to get insulation away from the cans.
Edit: I guess if you can deal with fluorescent you can do something like this

Not going to happen, plus don’t forget you need a minimum of 2" clearance on the back of the light, especially in a remodel light.

Go down to page 3, I think it is 5" depth, but you need an additional 2 clear
EDIT: Are you talking about aperture or depth?
The L3-r works if you are looking for aperture
Aperture, links look good. Thanks
