Re: Aquatinics Constellation
Gave them a call back. Boy did I learn a lot that I didn't know about lighting. First thing I need to do is be sure the wiring in the house is correct so I need to go get a tester. Once I do that I'll give him a call back. Also found out that our lighting is already grounded so it really doesn't need to be put on a GFCI but if you really want one get a heavy duty one so it doesn't keep tripping. Also got some good info on types of bulbs plus help on picking out the ones to have. All I can say is this guy knows his stuff.
