FAQs

What type of light bulb should I use with the Hector Pendant Light?

Can this pendant light be used in a damp environment like a bathroom?

The Hector Pendant Light is generally designed for dry indoor locations. It is not recommended for use in bathrooms or other areas with high humidity unless specifically stated otherwise by the manufacturer.

How do I adjust the length of the pendant cord?

The method for adjusting the cord length can vary. Typically, there is a mechanism at the ceiling rose or within the lamp holder. Consult the installation manual for precise instructions or seek assistance from an electrician.

Is the bone china shade fragile?

Bone china is a type of porcelain known for its strength and translucency. However, like all ceramic materials, it can be fragile if dropped or subjected to impact. Handle with care during installation and cleaning.

What is the warranty period for the Hector Pendant Light?

Warranty information can vary. Please check the product packaging, the manufacturer's website, or contact the retailer for specific warranty details.

Does the pendant light come with a light bulb included?

Light bulbs are often sold separately for pendant lights. Please check the product description or packaging to confirm whether a bulb is included.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on.

Check that the light bulb is correctly installed and functioning. Verify that the power to the fixture is on at the circuit breaker and switch. If issues persist, consult an electrician.

Uneven light distribution.

Ensure the light bulb is centered within the shade. Check for any internal obstructions. The translucent nature of the bone china is designed for diffusion, but significant unevenness may indicate an issue with the bulb or shade alignment.

Cable appears loose or damaged.

Do not attempt to use the fixture if the cable appears damaged. Contact customer support or a qualified electrician immediately for inspection and repair.
