Hello, I'm Mick Walley and i'm a local repairs officer for Wolverhampton Homes.
Today I would like to show you how to change a fluorescent light fitting in the kitchen.
Make sure you have a sturdy set of step ladders to reach the light fitting.
Firstly we remove the light cover.
This is easily done by applying slight pressure and pulling away from the fitting.
Make sure you put the light fitting cover in a safe place
To remove the fluorescent tube gently hold evenly at both ends
and turn in a clockwise direction to approximately six o'clock.
and gently lower the tube away from the fitting.
Please ensure to dispose of the tube at your local recycling center.
The tube will be sitting in the light fitting at this position.
We turn it to six o'clock and gently lower away.
A replacement light tube is available from your local DIY store such as B and Q.
To replace the new tube simply reverse the previous procedure.
Slide the tube into the fitting, twist in an anti-clockwise direction until it clicks into place.
Finally replace the light fitting by clicking back into place.
I hope this video helps and we thank you for watching.
