Frequently Asked Questions

Questions About LED Downlight Upgrades

Yes, all our recommended LED fittings feature a tri-colour switch (Warm White 3000K, Neutral 4000K, Cool Daylight 5000K) so you can easily adjust the room's ambience.

Yes. Halogen downlights run very hot and can be a fire risk when they are covered by insulation. IC-4 rated LED downlights run much cooler and are designed to be covered by roof insulation.

Yes, with a dimmer that is compatible with the lights. We match the dimmer to the fittings so you get smooth dimming without flicker or buzzing.

It depends on the room size, ceiling height and how you use the space. We plan the layout so the light is even without over-lighting, and we can price different options for you.

If your halogen downlights run on low-voltage (12V) transformers, we usually fit LED lights with a compatible driver or replace the transformer. If they are 240V fittings, the lamps or fittings can often be swapped directly. We check on site before quoting.

Yes, but fittings in wet areas must have the right IP rating for where they are located, as set out in AS/NZS 3000. We choose fittings to suit each zone.
