Question about Gold Crown light.

[Snake Plisken]

Can anyone tell me with any certainty if a GC light can be mounted directly to the ceiling?

I couldn't find this info on-line and the only pictures of the GC lights that I have ever seen are always hanging.

Thank you in advance for any help.

C'mon guys.. Someone here has to have experiience with the Gold Crown light.. Is this light made to be able to have it mounted to the ceiling...?

Yes

As a contractor who has installed a crown light you could although much more complicated than hanging due to the elect hookup

I have one and I would say that it is not meant to attach to the ceiling, but anything is possible. You could probably do it, but it would be a real pain, those things are pretty heavy.

If it was my house (yours too) I would worry about heat buildup with the light flush to the ceiling. If I remember right, the ballast would be right up against the ceiling, separated by sheet metal; a potential problem.

Could you use a really short chain, just to give it an 1" gap?
