We are renovating our home and are thinking about purchasing two of these units. We would like to recess so that the unit is flush with wall vs. protruding several inches. Will this compromise safety of unit?

There is an option that does no heat, DF-EFP148NH. That unit is meant to be recessed and may be better for you.

It can go either way. My husband was able to recess ours pretty easily. It's just heavy! So have another person around to help install.

Because it is a rather tall unit, mounting is helpful. Actually, placing two very small wedge under the front two corners would allow it to very slightly lean back so that it would be less likely to fall forward, assuming you are placing it against a wall.

If you meant each side of the unit is against the wall and their corner also fit in the corner of the wall, the answer is NO. There is no corner on the unit, the backside is parallel to the front side, only shorter, so there is a small gap between the wall corner and the back side. Hope I explained it.

Sorry, I was confused, this order was for my mother in law. We were'nt ableto install it recessed but if I remember correctly it was because our wall wasn't deep enough.

Our 12W 4" Recessed Lighting fixture is not compatible with any housing, it is made to be installed directly to the dry wall. However, if you are looking for a recessed light that needs to be used with the cans, please refer to ASIN: B00JUO51QU

I have 2 units...1 in each bathroom They are both mounted flush to the wall and extend outward about 4 inches. I've had them for 2 months and they are excellent. I use the higher wattage position as it is much warmer. Good air velocity.

Some units the SST OD base is shorter and not visible in the photo. That is an indication the recess in deeper that is all.Depending on the manufacturer

This product is not recessed into the wall. There are two notched out hangers at the top (in the back). This product comes with anchors and screws. The anchors are used if you are not drilling right into the studs.I have this in my main bathroom and I love it!

How it would fit depends on the plumbing and the baseboard would be an issue regardless making flush to wall problem with any vanity etc. It's not a problem but you could make extension side to close the small open exposed area

If you mean the wall depth I put it in an old house, wall depth was just a bit too short so I had to do some adapting to the unit. I would think with todays wall depth of a usual 6" it would be fine.

I am very doubtful. I installed this light into my office, and the clearance between the ceiling and the first orb light is maybe two inches. Installing it into a recess will probably not work out. Hard to say without seeing/knowing the exact area.

You can do either, flush or recessed. If to do flush, as we did, you can use the additional side mirrors provided. This is a wonderful cabinet!

You are the designer. You control the height when you install. The length of the secondary line is more than enough for you to place it higher than a very tall person. Your actual choice will obviously depend on the details of the location.

Wall clearances are for wall mounting unit. It needs to be several inches off wall face and from adjoining walls to avoid fire hazard. Check specs. Have licensed electrician mount it.

Yes you can put 2 units for a flush fit. The curved leg is only on the inside portion.

I've been sucsessfully useing mine for about a year now and had no problems with it at all. However mine is not in-wall but that shouldn't make a difference
