Hi,
I got myself some nice low voltage halogens that I want to fit in an upstairs room that's converted to an office.
there's about 100mm of insulation in the loft overhead, but that is being increased to about 200mm next week, the instructions for the lights recommend that a clear space of 75mm is required around the light for safety/heat dissipation.
I've thought of fixing either metal or plastic 250mm pipe (about 300mm high) around the fittings to keep back the insulation but during the 'top up' next week I was going to temporarily cover the pipe to stop insulation getting in (it's loose stuff being 'sprayed' into the loft space) remembering of course to remove to covers once it's done.
Is there a better way? what would you guys recommend?
