FAQs

Q) Can I lay insulation directly over these downlights?
A) No if you have thermal insulation present then you would either need to cut around it, which isn't energy efficient or take a look at these Aurora EFD Pro insulation coverable downlights. They are fitted with a patented insulation cover cap which allows insulation to be laid directly on top of them. They also have ventilation holes and are a superior choice of product.

Q) Will I need any additional items?
A) Apart from a GU10 lamp (bulb) you don't need anything else. If these downlights are being used to replace older downlights you can use the existing cables or if it's for a new installation then you'll need twin and earth cable.

Q) Which GU10 LEDs do you recommend?
A) We recommend either the Aurora Enlite 5W GU10 LED or the Philips 4.9W GU10 LED. The Aurora 5W is available in 3 colour temperatures and in dimmable or non dimmable versions. With a wide 60 degree beam angle and 480-520 lumen output, its a great choice of bulb. The Philips 4.9W is another great choice; it has a 36 degree beam and 355-380 lumen output. It also has a higher CRI rating of CRI90 which reproduces colours more accurately and is available in a DimTone dimming version that dims in colour tone as well as brightness.
