Default Lighting Dilema - (LV "air gap")

Floor's still up prior to UF and we have a dilema.

I'll re-explain the situation as it's been a while.
Bedrooms/Bathroom downstairs, Lounge/dining/kitchen/hall Upstairs.

UFH going down in the whole of the upstairs living area.

Problem - Bathroom is currently illuminated with 4 x LV "eyeball" lamps
set in ceiling. No problem so far, but UFH + Isulation etc will bring
base level down by 3" in an 8" joist, plus, in order to reduce sound
levels downstairs I am filling the void under the base ply with
rockwool, which will reduce air circulation to very little.

So, question is, is a 5" space above a LV Halogen enough to prevent
possible "heat" implications. If this is too close to the limits, what
could anyone suggest as alternative lighting to put in the holes left by
the LV lights.

Many thanks

Pete
