FAQ:
- How do I choose a good downlight?
Choosing the right downlight comes down to three important aspects: the type of the downlight, efficiency (Watt), and brightness of the lighting (lumen).
- Type of the downlight - Make sure to choose the right type since the wrong choice will lead to energy inefficiency. The common features to take note of are: weatherproof, moisture-resistant, fire-rated, motion-sensor, surface or recessed, indoor or outdoor, square or round shape, LED, and more unlisted types.
- Efficiency (Watt) - It can be anything between 9w, 12w, 16w, 18w, and 20w. When choosing weightage, the ceiling height plays a vital role. Generally, LEDs more than 15w are unsuitable for ceilings lower than 2.4m to 2.7m.
- Brightness (Lumen) - The brighter you want a space to be, the higher lumens you should go for. However, depending on the spaces, your desired colour temperature also needs to be considered.
