| Description Recessed downlights are a common feature in many homes, however they
also represent a potential fire hazard, In addition, the thermal performance of a ceiling is typically reduced by 50% when penetrated by multiple downlights due to heat loss through the gaps made in the insulation. Using an Astro Loft Cone restores the air tightness of the ceiling and ensures continuity of insulation so that the overall performance is similar to that of a ceiling without downlights. It adheres to the maximum external temperatures requested by the IEC even when cool beam lamps are used. Suitable for aluminum and dichroic reflector lamps up to a max. 50W with cut-out dimensions of 50-100mm. Designed to meet both the new NHBC requirement for a vapour seal and the requirement for continuous loft insulation documented in Approved Document L, whilst still maintaining an air space between the light fitting and the insulation - as stipulated by many light fitting manufacturers. The difference in a downlight with and without a Astro LC Loft Cone
can be seen via thermal image photography below, in particular see how
the excessive heat of a downlight could be a possible point of ignition.
