Service Call to Install Under Cabinet Lights in Topeka

Under cabinet lighting became popular in the 1990's. In the 90's, most under cabinet lighting consisted of T-12 fluorescent fixtures with magnetic ballasts. These fixtures have a limited life span, are slow to warm up and sometimes flicker or buzz. These fixtures were also large and often visible from a distance.

Other options at the time included halogen or xenon fixtures which create a great deal of heat, making it impossible to store sensitive food items on lower shelves. If your home has under cabinet lighting that is more than 10 years old, there are now much better lighting options available.


LED lights provide a bright, white light which is perfect for such tasks as reading a recipe or chopping vegetables. Most LED lights are also dimmable and make a great night light. CWC Electric, LLC recently installed the above featured under cabinet lighting in a Topeka home. 

We recommend positioning the LED lights slightly back from the front of your cabinet. Placing the LED lights too close to the front may result in a harsh shadow visible on your counter top rather than a pleasing wash over the entire surface.

Under cabinet lights are an essential component to any well-lit kitchen. They eliminate shadows and add dramatic accent lighting. Good-bye Grandma's drab, dark dungeon! Hello contemporary, state-of-the-art gallery!

Call CWC Electric, LLC today at 785-215-8775 to get an estimate on installing LED under cabinet lights in your kitchen.
