View of Redcliffe, Bristol from The General by Fairway Electrical

As your local electrician in Bristol, I recently worked on a project at The General in Redcliffe, where I installed pendant lights over a kitchen island and used wireless kinetic switches to control them.

The project was particularly challenging because I was unable to get a cable down the wall for a traditional switch, but wireless kinetic switches offered the perfect solution. In this post, I want to talk about the benefits of using wireless kinetic switches in situations like this and the difference pendants can make to a kitchen.

Wireless kinetic switches

Firstly, wireless kinetic switches are incredibly versatile and can be installed anywhere in your home without any need for complicated wiring. This means that if you're unable to run a cable down the wall for a traditional switch, wireless kinetic switches offer an easy and convenient alternative. In the case of The General, we were able to install the switches in to the existing switch plate, which made them easily accessible and convenient to use.

Secondly, wireless kinetic switches offer a range of features that traditional switches don't have. For example, you can use the app to set up schedules for your lights, so they turn on and off automatically at certain times of the day. This is particularly useful if you're often away from home or if you have a busy schedule and want to
ensure that your lights are always on when you need them.

Kitchen Island pendants

Looking to add a touch of modern elegance to your newly converted kitchen in Bristol? One way to do this is by installing new pendants over your kitchen island. Not only do they provide an eye-catching focal point, but they also offer functional lighting for your workspace.

When selecting pendant lights for your kitchen island, you'll want to consider both style and function. Start by measuring your island to determine how many lights you'll need and what size will work best. You'll also want to choose a style that complements your kitchen's overall aesthetic.

Some popular pendant styles for kitchens include:

Glass: These pendants are popular for their transparent or translucent shades,which allow for ample lighting and a contemporary look.

Industrial: Industrial-style pendants feature metal shades and exposed bulbs, giving off a raw, edgy vibe.

Mini: Mini pendants are perfect for small kitchen islands or for hanging in clusters for a unique, decorative look.

Drum: Drum pendants feature a cylindrical shade and offer a more classic, elegant look.

    Jason found the cause of our mould issue in our en suite, which was the pipe for the extractor fan having a bend which meant it was not functioning as needed. Jason replaced the part and did all this…
