FAQs

What size Globe Pendant Light is best for my space?

Consider the scale of your room. Larger globes are suitable for high-ceilinged or spacious rooms as centerpieces, while smaller ones can be used in multiples or in more intimate settings.

Can I use any type of light bulb?

The fixture is designed for exposed bulbs. We recommend using decorative 'squirrel cage' style LED or incandescent bulbs to complement the industrial aesthetic. Always check the maximum wattage specified for the fixture to prevent overheating.

How do I choose between opal and anthracite glass?

Opal glass provides a softer, diffused light, ideal for creating a warmer ambiance. Anthracite glass offers a more dramatic, smoky effect and can be more suited for spaces where a bolder statement is desired.

Is professional installation required?

Yes, for safety and proper installation, it is highly recommended that this pendant light be installed by a qualified electrician.

Can these lights be hung at different heights?

Yes, when installing multiple pendants, an electrician can adjust the cable length to hang them at varying heights for a dynamic visual effect.

What is the warranty period for the Globe Pendant Light?

Please refer to the manufacturer's warranty information provided with your purchase for specific details on the warranty period and coverage.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Ensure the light switch is on, the bulb is correctly screwed in, and the circuit breaker has not tripped. Verify power supply to the fixture.

Flickering light

Check if the bulb is loose or nearing the end of its lifespan. If using a dimmer, ensure compatibility with the LED or bulb type and check dimmer settings.

Glass shade is loose

Gently tighten any retaining screws or clips that hold the glass shade in place. If unsure, consult a professional electrician.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Installation of the Original BTC Globe Pendant Light should be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance with local building codes. Ensure the power is switched off at the mains before commencing.

Compatibility:

  • Bulb Type: The fixture is designed for exposed bulbs. Compatibility with specific bulb types (e.g., LED, incandescent) and maximum wattage should be checked based on the specific variant's specifications and local electrical regulations. Standard screw-in (E27) bulbs are typically used.
  • Dimmer Switches: If using dimmable bulbs, ensure the light is connected to a compatible dimmer switch for adjustable lighting levels.

Care:

  • Glass Shade: Gently clean the glass globe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
  • Metalwork: Polish chrome or brass fittings with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, use a metal polish specifically designed for the respective metal, testing in an inconspicuous area first.
  • Cable: The cotton braided cable can be dusted with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid getting the cable wet.
