When it comes to choosing the right LED flat panel surface mount for your space, one crucial consideration is the color temperature. Measured in Kelvin, color temperature refers to the color of the light produced by the fixture. Different color temperatures can have different effects on the ambiance and functionality of a room.

For example, fixtures producing a 5000K light are ideal for areas where increased visibility and concentration are needed. This higher color temperature produces a bright, neutral white light that is well-suited for task-oriented spaces such as hospitals, classrooms, and offices. On the other hand, choosing fixtures with a 4000K light can help reduce eye strain in these same environments.

If you're looking to create a welcoming feel in a lobby, retail store, or similar location, consider using LED panel lights with a 3500K color temperature. This lower color temperature produces a warm, inviting glow that is well-suited for spaces where relaxation and socialization are key.

When selecting ceiling LED panel lights, be sure to look at the color temperature of each fixture. Some lights may also have the option of being surface mounted to drywall ceilings with compatible LED panel mount kits. These fixtures have been tested to meet strict energy standards and may even qualify for state or local rebates.

The CPANL LED flat panel, paired with a DCMK bracket, provides a crisp and clean aesthetic solution that extends less than 1.6 inches below your ceiling. The DCMK by Lithonia Lighting is the ideal option for securely mounting the CPANL flat panel directly to a hard ceiling.

Some fixtures also come with an emergency backup feature that provides light during a power failure for up to 90 minutes. Additionally, ceiling LED panel lights eliminate dark spots by using an acrylic lens to evenly distribute light, reducing the number of fixtures needed to properly light an area.

Using a fraction of the energy of traditional fluorescents, these fixtures come on instantly to full brightness without needing a warmup period. With their lightweight design and easy installation capabilities, 4x LED flat panels are a great option for any space looking to upgrade to more efficient and effective lighting.
