Huh, I grew up in a house with ceilings no higher than maybe 7'2" (though that was not usual for buildings) and am 5'11" and wouldn't dream of calling it "claustrophobic". My father is even a couple inches taller. I guess it depends a lot on what you're used to.
Meanwhile my current residence has ceilings so high that I haven't bothered to install some LED bulbs that I have lying around since I don't have an easy safe way to reach the light fixtures.
- danieltillett 11y agoI am sure different people feel differently, but for me low ceilings are a non-option. In a climate like mine high ceilings avoid the need for air conditioning. You can get special poles for changing high bulbs. I have seen them before, but I can't remember what they are called.
- gluggymug 11y agoAh you must mean the good old "ceiling puncher". :) Actually I think the pole is just the regular extension pole you'd use with a paint roller. You get a light bulb changing attachment instead.
