Be very careful of what you do. There is supposed to be air space around the lamp. If this is blocked then enough heat can be generated by the bulb to catch the surrounding area on fire. Go to the home builders store and ask about zero clearance recessed fixtures before you do anything.
Yes, tin cans are generally opaque. The metal material used in tin cans prevents light from passing through, which helps protect the contents from light exposure and degradation. This opacity is beneficial for preserving food and beverages inside the cans.
It is very good for making cans, but the inside should usually be coated (especially if the contents will be acidic) with a plastic film to prevent corrosion of the steel.
No, not all aerosol cans require shaking before usage. It depends on the specific product inside the can. Some products may need shaking to mix the ingredients or ensure proper spray consistency, but others do not require shaking. Always check the manufacturer's instructions on the label for guidance.
Yes, zinc is commonly used to make cans because of its corrosion-resistant properties. The zinc is applied as a thin coating to protect the metal can from rusting and reacting with the contents inside. This process is known as galvanization and helps to prolong the life of the can.
Tin is used as a coating material inside food cans because it is non-reactive with acidic foods, preventing any interaction that could affect the taste or safety of the food. It also helps to protect the metal of the can from corrosion.
R30 refers to the size and shape of a reflector light bulb. It has a diameter of 3.75 inches and is often used for directional lighting in recessed cans. The "R" stands for "reflector" while "30" is a measurement in eighths of an inch for the diameter of the bulb.
Recessed Lighting Fixture Cans are manufactured to accept certain types of trim for the type of Recessed Rough in "Can". Check with the manufacturer of the recessed "can" to determine if the rough in "can" will accept the desired 3" light fixture. If not, then the existing 6" Recessed Lighting Fixture "Cans" will need to be removed and replaced with the 3" can in order to accept the desired trim. If the "cans" have been covered by the ceiling installed making them difficult to remove and replace the existing 6"cans and install the proper 3"cans, then you can purchase what is called old work or renovation Recessed Lighting Fixture cans and install them in place of the 6" cans. Some work to repair the ceiling would then be required.
Some modern alternatives to old recessed lighting cans include slim LED panel lights, surface-mounted LED fixtures, track lighting systems, and pendant lights. These options provide more flexibility in design and energy efficiency compared to traditional recessed lighting cans.
No. If you will have insulation around a can, make sure it is thermally protected.
tin is used to protect the inside of metal cans
When installing recessed light cans in a room with low ceilings, consider using shallow or slim profile cans to minimize the space needed. Position the lights strategically to provide even illumination and avoid creating shadows. Use LED bulbs for energy efficiency and to reduce heat output. Ensure proper insulation around the cans to prevent heat buildup and potential fire hazards.
Yes, raccoons can certainly be inside trash cans. Raccoons are scavengers, so they are often found in trash cans searching for leftover food.
That would depend on the size of the cans.
To set-up for cans in a Dixie Narco, know the length of the cans to be vended. Then set the cans to its proper sizing. Settings are inside the vending machine.
Because inside it is rotting food.
Yes, absolutely. As long as the LED bulb and incandescent bulb have the same base they will both fit the socket. The LED bulb will also run much cooler than the original incandescent bulb.
