Yes, the Luralite Cento Plus can be used in residential settings such as above cabinets, however most fly lights work best when mounted somewhere between 6 and 7 feet high. Use the tips below to make sure you are assessing your home and placement needs to the best of your ability.
POSITIONING A FLY LIGHT
Every application is unique, so each situation requires an individual assessment for flylight positioning, however, there are basic principals that should be followed
Recommend enough units to cover the area to be protected
Install units away from sources of light competition, such as windows, doors and high powered artificial light sources
Consider sources of heat and airflow, such as heaters/AC units
Don’t install units directly above sensitive areas, such as food preparation areas
Glueboard units should be used in sensitive applications such as food preparation or production areas
Consider access for installation and future servicing
Wherever possible, flylights should be positioned at 90° to sources of natural light, such as windows, doors and skylights
Flylights should be positioned in between potential entry points, so as to intercept flying insects before they reach sensitive areas
Flylights should not be installed either too high or too low in the area to be protected, with an optimum height of around 6’7”
