Lighting Protection
Lighting Fire Hoods.
Convert a normal downlight to a fire-rated one by using a fire hood.
Fire hoods maintain the integrity of a fire resisting ceiling for periods up to 120 minutes, depending on type, retarding the spread of fire into roof spaces.
Our range of easy to install BS / EN certified fire hoods for downlights, luminaires and recessed lighting is from Astroflame.The downlight fire hoods are acoustic rated to cut noise transmission as well as being fire rated.
The loft cone / loft cap allows continuous loft insulation to be laid over it without running the risk of overheating (F-Capped type).
