About this deal

Once it’s been fully tested he will then issue you a minor works certificate to prove all has been done to the regulations standard! Lamp holders & spares - If you're converting from MR16 to GU10, we've got GU10 lampholders available that allow you to convert your existing downlights into mains voltage GU10 This has resulted in recessed lighting becoming a common component in most homes. Most modern homes nowadays heavily imply the use of LED lighting due to their wealth of benefits compared to other incandescent lights. One such benefit is the fact that the average LED light bulb can last anywhere from 50,000 hours. Another incredible safety feature is the fact that most LEDs can be installed near water - and in most cases, fully submerged. A good idea to use a dust-catcher when drilling holes above your head. It both saves dust going in your eyes and onto the floor.

As they are fixed they only project light straight downwards but as long as they are sensibly spaced across a ceiling then they will project more than enough light to prevent any shadows or shaded areas. Multiply the result of the aforementioned step by 1.5 - this will provide you with the wattage needed to illuminate the designated space. The IP65 downlight is mainly exclusively used for installations in bathrooms as they feature a built-in seal that prevents pretty much any and all water, moisture and dust ingress, even pressurised! If you don’t have a laser level you can easily hire one. If not then you will need to measure and mark out from each wall and use a spirit level. Get an extra pair of hands for this, you’ll need them! Mark the ceiling at the centre of each spot. Keeping everything level and inline is a real task, especially on a ceiling, so for this the best tool to use is a laser level so that you have a perfect straight line to work along. Once the first set of markings are done then it’s easy to work out from this.Hole Saws for Downlights - Manufactured by Starrett, we've got a large selection of hole saws from 14mm to 121mm on offer You can expect your LED downlight to last for around 50,000 hours, although you may need to replace them at some stage. Regarding the process of removing a LED bulb, this is a fairly similar approach to removing a downlight. Warm white is an excellent choice for a bedroom or living room, providing a softer ambient feel to the atmosphere. Additionally, dimmable LED downlights are available. These can be dimmable using traditional analogue controls, which can also be operated VIA mobile phone or tablet device. Ensure that the correct wires are joined together e.g. brown lives to brown lives, blue neutrals to blue neutrals and earths to earths. The next job is to confirm that, by fitting downlights, this isn’t going to compromise fire safety or the Building Regulations. This is really only a consideration for old style downlights or low voltage lighting that uses a transformer. If fitting modern LED’s, they produce hardly any heat so should be fine.

It is typical to have the spots spaced at between 1.2 m (4ft) and 1.5 m (5ft) as this gives a more than suitable level of light, but this is entirely up to you, and people tend to suggest it is better to have more rather than less, as you can zone the lighting with switches or have a dimmer switch to tone it down if necessary. When it comes to lighting solutions for a room, downlights or recessed downlights as they are also known are always a fantastic choice as they are so versatile and also they suit pretty much any style from modern to traditional. How the wiring is done will really depend on the electrician, some will simply have a central supply cable and then use junction boxes to run a single supply wire to the light location. If the lights are being zoned e.g. 2 separate switches will control 2 separate banks of lights, your electrician will wire this appropriately. Mains voltage is 230V AC and has a tolerance of 10%, some products are 220V or 240V AC which means they can be classed as mains voltage.Use a hole saw to cut through your ceiling. Hold the blade of the saw so it’s perpendicular to the ceiling and the middle bit sits on the mark you made. Pull the trigger on the drill to start the hole saw and apply light pressure so the middle bit goes into the ceiling. Make sure the saw blade stays flat so you don’t cut your hole crooked. Pull the trigger in short bursts to work through your ceiling until you feel the saw pop out from the other side. [8] X Research source
