Project: Installing Insulation Coverable Downlights In A Bathroom
Products used:

Project Description

I wanted to install some new downlights in my bathroom with dimmable energy efficient LED bulbs, but due to having insulation in the ceiling space I had to go for Insulation Coverable Downlights. After appreciated help and advice from the Downlights Direct team I was recommended the Aurora Insulation Coverable Downlights with the Philips 6W LED  GU10 in a Warm White 3000K colour temperature. The bulb gives a bright lovely dimmable light, and blends with the white finish of the downlight and room colour.

Problems

The cutout size for the downlights is 72mm, and I only had a 70mm cutter which was still perfectly adequate for the job. I also couldn't put the downlights exactly where I wanted too due to the LED's 40 degree beam angle - but after a bit of planning I fitted them in a suitable position which was more suited and better than expected. The final problem I encountered was the dimmer switch after various visitors complained of flickering lights - This was simply resolved easily by resetting the dimmer with instructions supplied by Downlights Direct. My installation now works just as it should and I'm happy with the results!
