Hi,
I’m in the process of doing a loft conversion with a roofer. I want to install a number of down lights. Does any one know how insulation you should cut out for the down lighters, they all going to be MR16 fire rates ones. The thing is the electrician on the jop want to leave 300mm x 300mm gaps for each light. These numbers of gasp will loss a lot of insulation and heat and cause a cold bridge.
I feel you can cut the holes the size of the down lights themselves and push them up through the whole would work better.
Will this work OK.
