A recessed downlight wall wash reflector assembly having a wall wash reflector installable into a standard mounting frame for a recessed downlight reflector having a similarly sized light exit aperture. The reflector assembly has a downlight reflector, a window cutout in the wall of the downlight reflector and a wall wash reflector attached to the reflector assembly such that it is positioned behind the window cutout and has a lower tab that extends into the lower portion of the window cutout providing for a higher angle of reflection of light from nadir.

We claim: 1. A recessed downlight reflector assembly comprising: a downlight reflector having a sidewall with a lower edge, said sidewall having an interior and an exterior; at least one window cutout in said sidewall; and a wall wash reflector removeably attached to said exterior of said sidewall

We claim: 1. A recessed downlight reflector assembly comprising: a downlight reflector having a sidewall with a lower edge, said sidewall having an interior and an exterior; at least one window cutout in said sidewall; and a wall wash reflector removeably attached to said exterior of said sidewall and generally over said window cutout and having a tab with a lower edge depending into said interior of said sidewall wherein said lower edge of said tab is proximate a plane of said lower edge of said downlight reflector sidewall. 2. The recessed downlight reflector assembly of claim 1 wherein said downlight reflector sidewall has a substantially cylindrical shaped light source positioning section extending above a lower portion of said downlight reflector. 3. The recessed downlight reflector assembly of claim 2, said window cutout extending into said light source positioning section. 4. The recessed downlight reflector assembly of claim 1 wherein said downlight reflector sidewall has two of said window cutouts being proximate to each other and each of said window cutouts has a wall wash reflector having said lower edge of said tab proximate said plane of said lower edge of said downlight reflector sidewall. 5. The recessed downlight reflector assembly of claim 1 wherein said downlight reflector sidewall has two of said window cutouts being approximately opposite to each other and each of said window cutouts has a wall wash reflector having said lower edge of said tab proximate said plane of said lower edge of said downlight reflector sidewall. 6. A recessed downlight wall wash reflector assembly comprising: a downlight reflector having a sidewall with an inside and an outside; at least one window cutout in said sidewall of said downlight reflector; a wall wash reflector attached to said outside of said downlight reflector sidewall generally around said window cutout; and a bottom edge of said wall wash reflector extending into said window cutout and projecting into said inside of said downlight reflector sidewall. 7. The recessed downlight wall wash reflector of claim 6 wherein said downlight reflector has two window cutouts in said sidewall of said downlight reflector, said window cutouts being substantially proximate to each other and each having a wall wash reflector generally around said window cutouts, each of said wallwash reflectors extending into a bottom edge of said window cutouts into said inside of said down light reflector sidewall. 8. The recessed downlight wall wash reflector of claim 6 wherein said downlight reflector has two window cutouts in said sidewall of said downlight reflector, said window cutouts being approximately opposite to each other and each having a wall wash reflector generally around said window cutouts, each of said wallwash reflectors extending into a bottom edge of said window cutouts into said inside of said down light reflector sidewall. 9. A wall wash reflector comprising: a partial cylindrically shaped kick reflector flange; an ellipsoidal shaped kick reflector extending generally downward and outward from said kick reflector flange; and a tab extending downwardly and inwardly from said kick reflector, said tab having a horizontal arc length less than the lower horizontal arc length of said kick reflector. 10. The wall wash reflector of claim 9 wherein said kick reflector flange, said kick reflector, and said tab are of a unitary construction. 11. The wall wash reflector of claim 10 wherein said tab has a rounded section in each side edge. 12. The wall wash reflector of claim 10 wherein said tab has nearly linear side edges. 13. A recessed luminaire having a downlight reflector and a means for washing a wall with light, said means for washing a wall with light is a wall wash reflector having a reflective surface in light communication with a lamp, said reflective surface extending downward and having a lower edge forming a light exit aperture, an upper portion of said wall wash reflector being positioned externally about a window in said downlight reflector, said wall wash reflector having a lower tab near said aperture, said tab having a rounded section in an opposed pair of side edges. 14. A recessed luminaire having a downlight reflector and a means for washing a wall with light, said means for washing a wall with light is a wall wash reflector having a reflective surface in light communication with a lamp, said reflective surface extending downward and having a lower edge forming a light exit aperture, an upper portion of said wall wash reflector being positioned externally about a window in said downlight reflector, said wall wash reflector having a lower tab near said aperture, said tab having a nearly linear surface in an opposed pair of side edges. 15. A luminaire comprising: a downlight reflector section having a bell shaped lower section forming a light exit aperture and a cylindrical upper section; at least one window in said bell shaped lower section of said downlight reflector section; and a kick reflector surrounding each of said at least one window and having a lower tab extending into said at least one window. 16. The luminaire of claim 15 wherein said lower tab of said kick reflector has a reflective surface extending downward to a light exit aperture of said luminaire. 17. The luminaire of claim 15 wherein said lower tab of said kick reflector has an arc length less than a lower arc length of said at least one window. 18. A luminaire comprising: a downlight reflector having a lower edge; at least one window cutout in said downlight reflector above said lower edge; and at least one wall wash reflector removeably attached to an outer surface of said downlight reflector, each of said at least one wall wash reflectors being external and generally over each of said at least one window cutout and each having a lower tab extending into a lower portion of each of said at least one window cutout.
