FAQs

Is the light dimmable?
The fixture itself is compatible with dimming, provided you use dimmable GU10 bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch.
What is the IP44 rating?

Troubleshooting
Light fails to illuminate after installation
Check that the GU10 bulbs are properly seated in the holders and ensure the circuit breaker is active.
Flickering light

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should always be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure all IP44 seals are correctly seated and the wiring is weather-sealed. The fitting is compatible with standard GU10 bulbs, though it is recommended to use LED variants to maximize energy efficiency and reduce heat buildup inside the housing.
To keep the finish looking its best, especially in coastal areas with high salt spray, wipe the exterior of the fixture periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or pressure washers, as these can compromise the protective finish and the rubber gaskets responsible for maintaining the IP44 integrity.
