The most recent fire safety requirements call for recessed spotlights to be protected from contact with all kinds of insulation and other combustibles. To meet these requirements. Thermal insulation must be installed to ever increasing thicknesses and recessed downlights become completely buried. It is no longer acceptable to install insulation without protecting downlights, or use non-accredited products such as lengths of pipe, or upturned flowerpots.
The FF130 Loft Covers are specifically designed to ensure a fire safe installation for a wide range of downlighters and to meet CSTB CPT 3693 requirements.
