Overview
The Juno Wafer 4-inch canless lights are a popular series of ultra-thin LED recessed downlights from Juno Lighting (a brand under Acuity Brands). These fixtures are designed for easy, housing-free installation directly into ceilings, making them ideal for retrofits, new construction, or tight spaces where traditional recessed housings won't fit. The "canless" design eliminates the need for bulky metal cans, allowing for a slim profile that requires as little as 2–3 inches of plenum space above the ceiling. They're commonly used in residential, multi-family, light commercial, and hospitality settings like kitchens, bathrooms, hallways, closets, and stairwells.
Key Features

Some advanced models (e.g., ALO series) also allow adjustable lumen output for further customization.
