The decision how to choose the right chandelier for a stretch ceiling depends on several characteristics of both the chandelier and the ceiling on which it will be installed.
Which chandelier to choose for a stretch ceiling?
The main indicator, which is worth paying attention to when buying a chandelier for a stretch ceiling, is how much heat generates one or another option. After all, the stretch ceiling is quite sensitive to the ambient temperature coating. So, its maximum operating temperature is not more than 60 degrees, and when it is increased to 80 and above, there are already possible different deformations or stretching of the web. That is, it is necessary to choose a chandelier whose lamps do not heat the air above the permissible values, or whose plafonds are at a sufficient distance from the ceiling surface and turned down.
Another important factor in deciding how to choose the right chandelier for a stretch ceiling is the chandelier fixation to the ceiling surface provided by the manufacturer. There are two types of such fastenings: suspended, when the chandelier hangs on a special hook, and an overhead, when the lamp is screwed directly into the ceiling with the help of self-tapping screws. Obviously, when working with a stretch ceiling, you can use only the first option. In addition, the stretch ceiling partially closes the hook on which the chandelier hangs, so you need to take this into account when choosing the height of the mount.
Design of chandelier for stretch ceiling
The design of the chandelier is also important. If we choose fixtures and chandeliers for a glossy stretch ceiling, then it is better to avoid options with horns turned upwards to the ceiling. Firstly, they will sufficiently heat the ceiling surface, and secondly, everyone will see in the glossy ceiling, what is the interior of this chandelier. More advantageous options will be chandeliers with closed plafonds or turned down horns. Beautifully also look lamps that fit tightly to the ceiling. But in this case, it is necessary to choose the type of lamps especially carefully, so as not to damage the expensive tension coating.
