Insulation Protection and Safety Features

Thermahood Products

Rectangle Thermahood Downlight Cover

Lighting is crucial in loft spaces, and downlights are often chosen for their sleek design and effective illumination. The Rectangle Thermahood Downlight Cover acts as a protective barrier, preventing insulation materials from coming into contact with downlight fixtures, thereby reducing the risk of overheating and enhancing fire safety. In addition, these downlight covers also prevent heat loss through the light fitting, ensuring that your loft remains energy-efficient.

Forgefix Loft Lid

The Forgefix Loft Lid offers a solution for safely enclosing and insulating loft light fixtures. It is designed to prevent the escape of heat and the ingress of cold air through the light fitting, acting as a protective and insulating cover that also mitigates the risk of fire hazards associated with certain lighting fixtures.

Structured Loft Boarding

When selecting products for your loft storage setup, it’s vital to factor in the specific requirements of your loft space.

• Insulation Protection: Opt for loft legs and loft ledges that prevent compression of insulation, ensuring thermal performance is not compromised.
• Safety and Compliance: Always ensure that downlight covers and loft lids are utilised where lighting fixtures penetrate the insulation layer to enhance fire safety and reduce heat loss.
• Structured Storage: Insulated loft deck boards ensure a stable, insulated flooring for storage, while also contributing to the thermal efficiency of your home.
• Illumination: Choose loft lighting solutions that adequately light the space, ensuring visibility and safety when accessing stored items.
