WAC Lighting Ion 2in Recessed Frame-In Kit, Die-Cast Aluminum

WAC Lighting Ion 2in Recessed Frame-In Kit, Die-Cast Aluminum

The WAC Lighting Ion 2in Recessed Frame-In Kit is a pre-install housing designed to fit the WAC Ion recessed downlight, letting electricians set the frame during rough-in and order the light itself later in the project. Built from die-cast aluminum with a 20-gauge steel driver box, the 2in frame-in kit is engineered for the Ion's new construction and remodel platform. It carries a wet location listing for indoor and outdoor applications, including showers, and is Airtight and IC-Rated for direct contact with insulation. This kit is sold separately from the Ion light engine, giving contractors flexibility to install the frame early and finish the fixture on their own schedule.
