LED ENERGY EFFICIENT DOWNLIGHTS

Downlights, also known as recessed lights or can lights, are lighting fixtures installed into ceilings or walls to provide focused, directional lighting. They are commonly used in residential, commercial, and industrial settings for general lighting, task lighting, or accent lighting. Here are some key features and types of downlights:

Types of Downlights you may be looking for:

• Fixed Downlights: These provide light in a single, fixed direction and are best for general lighting like the image above which was an installation by WESTAMP in a beauty salon.
• Adjustable Downlights: These can be tilted or swivelled to direct light where needed, making them ideal for accent lighting or highlighting artwork.
• Gimbal Downlights: These offer more flexibility, allowing rotation in all directions for precise lighting control.
• Wall Washers: These downlights are designed to spread light evenly across walls, providing uniform illumination for artwork or architectural features.
• Surfaced Mounted Can Lights: Now because most downlights do required to be recessed in sheet rock sometimes there isn't always enough access in some parts of specific buildings which make surface mounted can lights a viable option. This also gives off a different but elegant look which helps keeps it classy in peoples homes. These are very good for high ceilings to fill spaces & give that protruding look, sometimes we even double up can lights next to each other which looks great also.

Reason's why I should consider WestAmp to install Downlights:

1. Energy Efficiency: LED lights use significantly less energy than halogen lights, which can result in lower electricity bills and a reduced carbon footprint. LED lights convert most of the energy they use into light, while halogen lights convert more energy into heat.
2. Longer Lifespan: LED lights last much longer than halogen lights, often up to 25,000 hours or more compared to 2,000 to 4,000 hours for halogen lights. This means less frequent replacement and maintenance.
3. Safety: Halogen lights produce a lot of heat, which can be a fire hazard and pose risks to nearby materials. LED lights stay much cooler, making them safer for use in various environments.
4. Cost Savings: Although the initial cost of LED lights may be higher, the energy savings and longer lifespan make them more cost-effective in the long run.
5. Better Lighting Quality: LED lights offer better colour rendering and consistency in light output. They can provide a range of colour temperatures to suit different preferences and settings.
6. Dimming Capabilities: Many LED lights are compatible with dimmer switches, allowing clients to adjust the brightness and mood of their lighting.
7. Environmentally Friendly: LEDs do not contain toxic materials such as mercury, which is found in some other types of lights, including halogens.
8. Instant On: LEDs turn on instantly to full brightness, unlike some halogens, which may take a moment to warm up.
9. Design Flexibility: LEDs are available in a wide range of shapes, sizes, and designs, making them suitable for a variety of applications and lighting needs.

KEY NOTE:

Downlights are reasonably priced & offer a great solution for lighting within your dwelling, if you have existing lights that you're not happy with, downlights can generally be put in any part of the house. A key note to take down is that if you do end up wanting downlights through out your property, there may have to be some patching & painting done from another trade as holes from old light fittings may be shown because downlights have been put in different areas & getting cables to certain positions in certain structural builds may require the cutting of holes, but this isn't a common issue.
