    Tysoft Easy Cert - Confused. Fire rated downlights to minimise build up of heat?

    I need to put an image on but not sure how on here, it's quite limited. I'm just using Tysoft Easy Cert to compose a DEICR and one of the questions refers to using a fire rated downlight to minimise the build-up of heat. That's not what they are for. Every time I see this question it...

    Fire Rated LED down lights

    I know this gets done to death, but just some light debate (see what I did there!). Been fervent installer of JCC FGLED down lights, mainly because of push fit connections and ten year warranty. I have used some other manufacturers, Scolmore Inceptor, but mainly JCC. However, recently my...

    Recessed Fire Rated Down Lights

    Hi This maybe a daft question but I want to be 100% sure. Do fire rated recessed down lights require Insumescent covers? Or will a 200mm air gap surrounding the fitting suffice? Thanks in advance Regards Soapy

    Rated people - What a Joke They are!

    I thought would try rated people as they were offering free membership, and having spent well over an hour on the phone to them I got transferred to 5 different people who frankly didn't inspire much confidence in me to deal with a simple issue (their website actually says free membership in my...

    IP20 in Bathroom Zone 1

    I'm hoping for a bit of advice from the experts here. Our electrician has fitted an IP20 rated downlight above the shower in our new bathroom. He says this is fine as the GU10 LED bulb is a sealed unit and therefore "won't explode." I'm not convinced that it's entirely safe as I would expect...
