recessed lights inside a wood soffit
Is it okay to install recessed lights within a soffited eve? The eve has a continuous vent, no insulation, but the soffit is 1×6 T&G. Halo states no insulation within 3 inches, but what about the wood that touches at the opening? The cans need to be a retrofit type, installing from underneath. Any comments appreciated.

If you are the least bit concerned with clearances, get the ICT remodel cans that allow ins. contact.
