Knowledge of classification, purchase and installation.
Basic classification of floor lamps
When purchasing floor lamps, you must first make a basic classification of the many floor lamps on the market. Floor lamps are usually divided into top-illuminated floor lamps and direct-illuminated floor lamps.
Top-illuminated floor lamp: The light of the lamp shines on the ceiling and then diffuses down, evenly distributed in the room. This kind of "indirect" lighting method has softer light, less irritation to human eyes, and can also relax people's mood to a certain extent. In some popular modern minimalist home designs, this kind of use is quite common.
Direct-illuminated floor lamp: similar to a desk lamp, with concentrated light. It can be used as the main light source in a small area after turning off the main light source, or it can be used.
How to choose a floor lamp
The purchase of floor lamps generally focuses on three aspects:
1. When buying a top-illuminated floor lamp, consider the height of the ceiling and other factors. If the ceiling is too low, the light can only be concentrated in a local area, which will make people feel that the light is too bright and not soft enough. At the same time, using top-illuminated floor lamps, the ceiling in the home is white or light-colored, and the ceiling material has a certain reflective effect.
2. When purchasing a direct-illuminated floor lamp, pay attention to that the lower edge of the lampshade is lower than the eyes, so that the eyes will not feel uncomfortable due to the light bulb. In addition, too much indoor light contrast will increase eye load, try to choose a floor lamp that can be dimmed. When in use, because the direct-illuminated light is concentrated, avoid mirrors and glass products in the reading position to avoid discomfort caused by reflections.
3. If you buy a "model floor lamp", this kind of lamp can be said to be not used for lighting, it is more like a "light sculpture" in the environment in the home. Of course, when purchasing this type of floor lamp, you must consider its consistency with the overall style of your home. For example, a classic standing lamp made of heavy bloody stone, and modern furniture with a streamlined style in yuppie style is Nanyuanbei.

Some owners will find out how brighter some floor lamps look when choosing a lamp, while some will be darker, some are white, some are purple or blue. , This is caused by the different light effects and color temperatures of the light sources. Some small manufacturers produce light sources with low light efficiency, but in order to make customers look brighter, the color temperature is made higher, so that it looks brighter. In fact, it is not really bright, it is just an illusion of the human eye, and the eyesight will get worse and worse in this environment for a long time.

How to install the floor lamp
In addition to the cumbersome chandeliers and wall lamps, such as table lamps and floor lamps, you can install them yourself. Although the installation method of each luminaire varies slightly depending on the product design, it is often the same. We only need to pay attention to the following points when installing the floor lamp:
1. Read the installation drawings carefully before installation, and prepare common tools, such as flat-head Phillips screwdrivers, hammers, etc. After unpacking the parts, it is best not to confuse them. If there are many similar parts, the drawing will draw a comparison chart of actual size, and the unused parts will be crossed, which is very easy to distinguish the various parts.
2. If the board is found to be damaged during the inspection, you can contact the merchant for a replacement. Wherever screws, eccentric parts, and wooden shafts are to be installed, guide holes will be opened, so there is no need to worry about the positioning of the parts. It should be noted that the wrong parts should not be installed and then repeatedly screwed together, otherwise the plate will be easily damaged, and the installation will often cause instability and tilt.
3. Generally, the floor lamp should have a cast iron chassis, which is slightly smaller than the surface base, and the parts are smooth from bottom to top.
