I was wondering what the collective wisdom is on what to do about loft
insulation above MR16 LV downlights. I see Screwfix do a couple of products,
a firehood and a steel box thing but neither seem to suit.

I am thinking about constructing a Plasterboard void above the lights. The
roof trusses are on 2 foot centres and 4" high. I thought a PB void the
width and height of the the trusses and about a foot wide would be OK but I
don't know if I should leave some ventilation holes. The existing insulation
is 4" thick and I have bought some more to run across the trusses. Any
thoughts please.
