Chooing Downlighters for you home
Downlighters are the perfect choice for any interior and come in a wide variety of styles and colours. Colours range from antique brass, satin chrome and white. Some style of downlighters can be tilted to creating flexibility on the direction of the light source. This is ideal for kitchen lighting as the light can be directed to work surfaces, or positioned in the ceiling closed to walls to light pictures. Downlighters provide ample illumination from a minimal amount of space - making them perfect for rooms with low ceilings. It is also possible to get downlighters suitable for use in the bathroom with an extended range of IP rated light fittings in a variety colours and styles.
Mains Voltage Downlighters are easy and convenient to use as they run straight from the mains supply and therefore do not require any additional transformers. When choosing your mains voltage downlighter you will be able to choose from a large choice of styles and colours ensuring that any interior can find a mains voltage downlighter to suit.
Low Voltage Downlighters require a transformer as they cannot be run straight from the mains supply. The transformer will take your mains power voltage 240v and reduce it to 12v which is the correct voltage for the lamp type. Low voltage downlighters are a common choice for bathrooms due to the reduced voltage, which is an obvious safety feature. It is possible to select low voltage downlighters that are jet and shower proof.
Fire Rated Downlighters are now a standard requirement for all new homes. Fire rated downlighters are specifically designed to comply with UK building regulations ensuring that they offer some protection from the spread of fire. Many of the fire rated downlighters available are also IP rated meaning that they can be installed in bathroom areas.
