How to Retrofit Incandescent Light Fixtures to LEDs

A modern living space with a stone fireplace, wooden ceiling, and recessed DMF Lighting.

Upgrading Your Lighting Design Is Easy with DMF Lighting 

Is it time to finally update your home’s lighting fixtures to LEDs? Manufacturing of most incandescent bulbs has been banned for environmental reasons, and CFL bulbs are next

Not only are LEDs vastly more energy efficient than other light bulbs, but certain smart LEDs can also be intelligently controlled, letting you adjust the brightness and color with a tap of a button. This makes them ideal for smart homes and lighting design.

In most cases, you can simply screw an LED bulb into the legacy light socket. But in other scenarios, you’ll need an adaptor or retrofit kit to upgrade to LEDs. Let’s see if your Dallas–Fort Worth home needs to retrofit your fixtures—and how easy the solution can be.

Do You Need to Retrofit Your Light Fixtures for LEDs? 

In most common light fixtures, you merely replace your incandescent or CFL bulb with an LED light bulb. But in certain cases, you may need to retrofit your lamp or fixture, such as: 

  1. Different Base Sizes: Some fixture bases, such as candelabra (E12) or medium (E26), will need an adapter to convert to LEDs. 
  2. Specialty Fixtures: Certain fixtures use specific bulbs that aren’t compatible with typical LED bases, including halogen, pin-base (like G4 or GU10), low-voltage, and antique fixtures. 
  3. Extended Reach/Flexibility: If you need extra length to fit a bulb into a fixture, adaptors provide the extension you need. 

Upgrade with DMF’s Retrofit Solutions 

DMF Lighting, a renowned LED downlighting manufacturer, makes it easy for homeowners and integrators like us to retrofit outdated fixtures with new LEDs. You won’t have to cut new holes in the ceiling or completely replace your existing can lights. 

DMF’s solutions include all the adaptors and new wiring you need, plus modular trimmings to fit perfectly within your ceiling. DMF’s recessed lights are available from 2 to 6 inches wide, and adjustable recessed lights can direct beams of light wherever you please. Plus, LEDs from DMF offer 1 percent dimming to achieve the precise brightness you desire. 

Why DMF Lighting? 

We prefer DMF Lighting’s LED retrofit system for the following reasons: 

  1. Warm Dimming: If you want LED lights to emit the same warm, cozy glow of incandescents, DMF Lighting is renowned for its color capabilities. 
  2. Quality of Light: DMF’s wide range of color temperatures means you can find the exact shade of light you desire, unlike smart bulbs from big-box stores. 
  3. Compatibility with Existing Fixtures: If you already have existing can lights, for instance, DMF’s Retrofit Series allows you to work with the hardware you already have. 
  4. Integration with Smart Home System: DMF’s lighting solutions work seamlessly with smart home systems like Control4 and Lutron, providing smooth dimming without any flickering. 
  5. Aesthetics: DMF’s retrofit system offers a clean, modern appearance that can blend in with any ceiling color, material, or texture.
