As a leading stockist of Integral LED Evofire downlight range we thougt we would share with you what makes these downlights so special...
EvoFire downlights from Integral LED are a new generation of GU10 fire rated downlights. To the untrained eye this looks like a simple downlight but it's the simplicity that makes it such an evolution!
The open design provides optimum temperature conditions for the installed GU10 or MR16 LED increasing airflow and preventing heat from building up. This is opposed to traditional fire can downlights that cut off the air supply to the LED which significantly reduces the lifetime of the bulb.
Lamps installed in the Integral EvoFire downlights operate at up to 10 degrees C cooler than enclosed can style downlights. The patented design of EvoFire downlights provides fire protection in its own unique way. By filling the hole with the Evofire downlight it utilises its fire rated steel bezel and glass using it as a barrier. With this it is able to maintain the integrity of the fire-rated ceiling.
Rated at IP65 as standard which offers resistance to water and dust the ultra-thin, blend-in bezel of just 1mm in thickness allows the downlights to fit barely noticeably into a ceiling space. Designed specifically for use with LED lamps this includes mains voltage GU10 or low voltage MR16 with a maximum wattage of 10W. These fire rated downlights are ideal for any room in the home including lounges, kitchens and bathrooms.
GU10 LED lamps are available in a large selection of options from different brands. The advantage of using GU10 downlights over integrated is that you can choose between different wattage types, colour temperatures and between dimmable or cheaper non-dimmable versions. The EvoFire is a downlight housing and the LED provides the light.
Available in fire rated and insulation coverable or just fire rated. The insulation coverable version is fitted with an insulation cover guard that allows you to lay insulation directly on top of it. Some versions are available in singles and in multi-packs of fours and threes which offer a bulk buy saving.
Now available in round or square styles and in matt white, matt black, satin nickel and chrome finishes. As the non insulation coverable version has no back to it it has no height restrictions meaning you can fit deeper LED bulbs inside. Some deeper LEDs like the Philips Hue GU10 don't have a flat front and don't sit quite right within the downlight.
There have recently been great additions to this range including the Evofire Mini (45mm cut out) for use with MR11 and MR11 GU10 base lamps which are perfect for discreet highlighting downlights. There is also the Evofire+ which take a changable led light source making the fitting much shallower than it would be if fitted with a traditional GU10 lamp.
