Privacy Recessed Light Covers

Privacy Recessed Light Covers Maintaining a sound rated ceiling with can lights, or downlights, continues to be a difficult task. Until now the options included building drywall boxes or even using a lightweight concrete layer on the ceiling above. Both options are very costly, and in some cases impossible to do after the fact.

In renovation projects, basements and new construction the conflict between much wanted recessed lighting and the ability to provide measurable sound control would preclude the use of downlights. For low ceiling projects surface mounted lights are not an option either.

From a Home Theater Builder on www.doityourself.com "The trouble with the downlights is that even if they're airtight, they're still basically big hollow sounding boxes that break the insulation layer and block very little sound themselves."

Finally there is a simple effective solution for any ceiling fixture that will insure that the sound rating will remain intact. Using Privacy Recessed Downlight Covers involves simply placing the cover over your recessed fixture and constructing your ceiling as you normally would. It's really that simple. The benefits are two fold, soundproofing and thermal insulation through the ceiling.

Privacy Recessed Downlight Covers are UL Rated, and will meet the International Building Code for any type ceiling. Both one-hour and two-hour fire rated covers are available. Additionally, we carry covers for ceiling mounted speakers, fluorescent light fixtures and more.
