If you follow these 4 simple recommendations, choosing the right downlight for your home can be quick and easy:
Buy Fire Rated;
They're safer and can protect your home in the event of a fire.
There are instances were a fire rating is not required but for 95% of domestic installations, downlights should be fire rated.
Consider integrated downlights over GU10, they're more reliable and last longer.
The price of integrated versions has reduced a lot recently and some don’t cost too much more.
Do you have thermal insulation above your downlights?
If so cutting around the insulation renders it almost useless.
But if your purchase insulation coverable downlights you can lay the insulation directly on top.
Whether you’re buying Integrated LED or replaceable GU10 downlights, buy branded LEDs, in life you get what you pay for.
