Eaton H5RICAT – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can I install the Halo H5RICAT recessed housing in an existing ceiling without cutting out drywall?
Yes. The Halo H5RICAT is a remodel housing, which means it goes up through the cut hole in a finished ceiling and clips to the drywall rather than mounting to joists ahead of the rock. That is what separates it from a new-construction housing, which has to be hung on bar hangers before the ceiling is closed up. For a retrofit or a remodel where the ceiling stays in place, this is the right construction type.
2) Is the Halo remodel housing rated airtight for an insulated ceiling below a cold attic?
It is an airtight-rated housing, so it is built to limit air leakage between the conditioned room and the unconditioned space above. That matters on the top floor where every can cut into the lid is a potential leak path, and it is what energy codes are looking for on recessed fixtures in the thermal envelope. The Halo H5RICAT and H750RICAT both carry that airtight construction.
3) Does the Halo recessed housing come with a trim and reflector, or do I order those separately?
The housing ships in a raw, unpainted finish and is meant to take a trim and reflector that you specify separately. Plan the order as two line items: the housing for the rough-in, then the trim that sets the aperture look and finish in the room. Budget that second piece into every can on the job.
4) Is the Halo H5RICAT housing UL listed for a permitted commercial job?
It carries a cULus listing, so it is recognized for both the US and Canada. That covers the safety listing an inspector asks for on a recessed fixture in residential or light commercial interior work.
5) I need to standardize recessed cans across a multi-family property. Does this Halo housing work for both 120V units and a 277V common area?
Yes, within the same family. Order the H5RICAT for the 120 volt dwelling circuits and the H750RICAT for 277 volt corridor or common area lighting. Same Halo airtight remodel housing platform on both, so your crews install the same way and your trim selection stays consistent across the property. Just keep the two part numbers separated on the jobsite, since dropping a 120 volt housing on a 277 volt circuit is the easy mistake here.
6) What is the maximum lamp wattage I can put in the 120 volt Halo H5RICAT?
75 watts on the 120 volt H5RICAT. Do not exceed it, even when a trim looks like it will take more, because the airtight housing is a closed cavity and the wattage limit is what keeps the thermal protector from cycling. The 277 volt H750RICAT is rated to 20 watts.
7) Will the raw finish on this Halo housing show once the light is installed?
No. Raw finish means the housing shell is unpainted because it sits above the ceiling line and never gets seen. The visible surface is the trim ring and reflector you add, and that is where the finish selection actually happens.
