8. Is Green Loft insulation fire-retardant, and can it be installed near spotlights?
Yes, Green Loft insulation is fire-retardant. However, it is not recommended to install polyester insulation directly over spotlights, as spotlights generate high heat and may create a fire risk if insulation is placed too close.
To ensure safety:
-
Maintain at least 3 inches (75mm) of clearance between insulation and any spotlight.
-
Always consult a qualified electrician or insulation professional if you are unsure about safe installation in your property.
