I am going to replace a ceiling light with GU10 down lighters.
I have been reading about the different types of bulbs.
We will probabaly go for a series of 9W CFLs.
They will be fitted in the ceiling space which contains some insulation ( rock wool or "dog fur")
There is no living space above the light, just void in a flat / pitched roof.
The CFL bulbs are deamed "cool running".
Now.... Do I need to cover the lights with fire hoods?
The reason I am asking is when we had a bathroom done next door the electrician fitted hoods over MR16 halogen downlighters. At that time fire rated downlighters were not very common.
