Looking for a downlights Electrician?

1) Downlights

EMC Electrical Group present to you their domestic Downlights electrician service. Downlights within your Bristol home can serve many purposes, offer many benefits and work in many settings to which we will enlighten you. 

2) What is a Downlight?

A downlight is a light fixture that is installed into the ceiling of your Bristol home providing light in a downwards direction. Our Downlights can be installed either recessed into a ceiling or surface mounted. Their light is emitted in a narrow beam pattern and can be used for general lighting in a room or even to highlight a specific area. They are available in two types being halogen and LED. Halogen Downlights will provide a powerful output of light but in terms of energy and longevity they do not stand up to an LED. LED’s are a more modern option that is also sustainable. Fire rated downlights are also a safe option in that they are able to protect your Bristol home in the event of a fire. 

3) Purposes of Downlights

EMC Electrical Group are happy to say Downlights have many purposes in a domestic setting and these include:

• Providing light in dark areas in your Bristol home when natural light is not available or of a nighttime
• They can easily create definition in a space for example a reading snug in the corner of a room or an island in a kitchen
• Something like Downlights can even create ambience or change an atmosphere within your home
• Task lighting is a great purpose for Downlights. Offering focused lighting, it’s great for preparing food, reading, writing and even shaving in a mirror
