The Adler 8cm Retrofit Downlight is a professional-grade lighting solution ideal for homeowners and contractors seeking a balance of modern aesthetics and fire safety. These fixtures provide 90-minute fire resistance to help prevent the spread of fire between floor levels, making them a safe choice for residential or commercial ceilings. While they offer excellent durability and a sleek brushed chrome finish, users should note that they require precise cutout measurements for a seamless flush-mount installation.

FAQs
Can these be installed in bathrooms?
While these are suitable for many rooms, please verify the IP rating to ensure they are protected against moisture if installing in a zone where water contact is possible.
What is the primary benefit of the 90-minute fire rating?
The 90-minute rating ensures the integrity of the ceiling remains intact for up to an hour and a half in the event of a fire, providing critical time for evacuation.
Are these dimmable?
Functionality depends on the specific bulb or integrated LED driver used; please consult the technical specifications on the packaging.
What does cool white light look like?
Cool white light has a slightly bluish or crisp white tone, which is generally more energetic and brighter than warm, yellowish lighting.
Can I install these myself?
While possible for experienced DIYers, professional installation is recommended to ensure the fire-rated integrity of the ceiling is not compromised.
How many units come in a box?
This product is supplied as a set of 20 individual downlight fixtures.
Troubleshooting
Light flickering after installation
Check all electrical connections at the terminal block to ensure they are secure and that no wires are loose.
Trim not sitting flush with the ceiling
Verify that the cutout size is exactly 8cm and ensure no ceiling debris is preventing the spring clips from pulling the unit tight against the plasterboard.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires an 8cm cutout in the ceiling. Because these are fire-rated fixtures, ensure that the surrounding insulation and ceiling materials are compatible with the heat dissipation requirements of the housing. We strongly recommend hiring a certified electrician to handle the wiring to ensure all fire-rated seals are properly maintained during the installation process. To care for the brushed chrome trim, use a dry, soft microfiber cloth to wipe away dust; avoid using abrasive chemicals or acidic cleaners, which may damage the finish.
