Designed to t shallow plenums above ceilings in residential
and light commercial se ings, the Aether IC-rated family is
engineered with a low-pro le 3.5-inch LED shallow housing
and has added a new color-changing option. This housing is
ideal for installation into small ceiling spaces inside buildings
with complex HVAC ducts and heating/water pipes that are
located between the oors.
Using WAC’s exclusive optional IlumenightM app, the user
can take the space from pure Warm White to a Cool White
color temperature, as well as red to violet and every color in
between — all at the touch of a nger.
A winner of a 2017 Lighting for Tomorrow Award, Aether
is ENERGY STAR-rated and wet location-listed for a variety
of applications, ing into ceilings with thicknesses that
range from just .50 to 1.5 inches. The luminaire operates as a
downlight for general illumination, a wall-wash for illuminating
walls, and an adjustable xture for accent lighting and
mounting to sloped ceilings.
It operates with just 22.5 wa s and delivers up to 1,375
lumens. The dimmable luminaire is o ered with a 15-degree
narrow beam up to 50-degree ood beam and color
temperatures ranging from 2700K to 4000K with a CRI of
up to 90. Both round and square trim models are available as
well as trimless styles.
