What does this mean?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCutting a hole into your ceiling to mount downlights compromises its natural fire barrier. Even if you cover the gap with the downlight, it’s not enough to plug the smallest cracks. Only a fire-rated downlight like this one can restore your ceiling’s fire integrity because it’s made with an intumescent pad that expands when exposed to a certain temperature. When activated, the pad blocks the smallest cracks around the downlight, preventing the fire from slipping through!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInsulation Coverable\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou'll find insulation-coverable downlights, but it's not the same for every brand or model.
