What it is
False ceilings are made of gypsum board, POP, wood or metal panels on a metal frame. They allow cove lighting, recessed lights and AC ducts, and can improve the look of a room.
Types and key points
- Gypsum board: smooth and common
- POP: shapes and curves
- Wood and metal panels: feature areas
- Leaves a gap for wires and ducts
Why it matters
They reduce ceiling height, so plan them with the room height. Inspection openings help with future repairs.
