What happened to this AC filter/cover!?
Woke up this morning to find this. The cover is bent like something tried to bust out of the vent. What could have caused this? Apologies for the background noise in the video from the television.

So, I got a Metaltech 3-tier rolling scaffold. The top platform is set to about 13.5 ft, not the full height. The outriggers that came with this are 48” but I need to maneuver this into a space that has a width of 56” so the outriggers plus the width of the scaffold itself will not fit.
Metaltech sells 14” outriggers that installed at a 45 degree angle will increase the base width to 48.8”. Would this be adequate?
So we need to replace 16 recessed lights on a 20 foot tall ceiling.
Two of the lights are centered over an 8 foot wide kitchen island. Is it possible to have a scaffold built that would straddle that island? Also, would said scaffold be able to be mobile so it can access the other lights around the room? I looked at 3-story Bakers scaffolds but they seem to have only a 6 foot width.
The other option is to use a 21’ Little Giant Skyscraper ladder because that will straddle the counter and reach up that high, but the electrician isn’t too keen on that option.
We thought about using a lift as well, but are concerned the weight of the lift (~2500 pounds) would do bad things to the flooring.
Thanks for your help and any insight you can provide!
New house and wondering what are these pipes sticking out of the wall of the garage?
Hello, looking to see if someone can recommend what DMF Lighting DRD2 modules would be ideal for a 33' x 22' room with recessed LEDs arranged on the 20' ceiling as in the attached picture. The room consists of a Great Room as well as a Kitchen, open concept. The light arrangement in the Kitchen is closer than the Great Room.
Looking to get lights with Warm Dimming and was thinking of the 1500 lumen but was corrected below that warm dimming is only available at 1000 lumens. So the initial thought process I had was 40 degree flood model (DRD2M1093WFLT) for all the lights.
Does that make sense or should I do the 40 degree floods for the Great Room and the 25 degree Spot (DRD2M1093WSPT) for the Kitchen to illuminate the brightly? Any other suggestions?
Would it be weird to have lights with different degree spreads in the two areas of the room? Also was wanting the smooth trim rather than baffled due to cleaner look.
Based on the Photometry charts on the DMF website PDFs for the 1000 lumen lights, I'm calculating the following diameter beam spreads at 20 feet for each of the options:
40 Degree Flood - 13.3'
25 Degree Spot - 9.333'
My concern with using the 25 degree spot in the great room area is the 11 foot spread between lights with each light producing a 9.333’ diameter light at 20ft. That means about 1.5 ft between lights may not have even illumination. I’ve been told I’m overthinking this. Which is certainly a possibility.
If I get the 25 degree spot and later decide I need the 40 degree flood, can the optics be purchased and changed without changing the whole light out and is that cost effective?
Thank you for any help and suggestions you can provide!
