Hi all,
I have downlighters in my bathroom and en suite (9 in total) and am experiencing a lot of condensation in my loft. 1 side of the loft the felt is completely wet, whereas the other side has drips on it.
I have seen from comments on here that this is probably caused by steam escaping through the downlights so am assuming this is my main problem. I was going to buy some firehoods (as seen on this forum) but have since been informed that the downlighters should have a glass cover on them when located in bathrooms and when checking have noticed that none of mine have any type of cover (these were already in the house when I moved in). So my question is, is this advice correct and I need to buy the covers and if so is this likely to help reduce the condensation or will I also need to purchase the fire hoods?
Thanks for any help
