The Domus DEEP-9 is a 9 W deep-set recessed downlight, IP54, switchable 3000 K / 4000 K / 5000 K, with a 60° beam. Cutout Ø90 mm; fascia Ø100 mm; 60 mm deep. ⛔ Do not cover this fitting or its driver with insulation. Its installation sheet says so directly: "The Luminaire and the driver are NOT suitable for covering with insulation material." That is a real constraint in a modern ceiling, and it is not on the product record. A fitting without an insulation-contact rating needs a physical clearance kept around it — which means someone has to hold the batts back at installation, and keep them back afterwards. Over the life of a house, insulation gets topped up and moved by people who never saw the instruction sheet. ✅ Tell your electrician and note it on the plan. ⚠ And if the ceiling is being insulated to a high R-value, ask us — the Domus CELL range carries an IC-4 rating, which is the only insulation-contact rating we have found in this catalogue. The deep-set face is why you would choose it The LED sits well back from the aperture, so from a standing position you see a lit surface rather than the source. ✅ In a room with eight or ten downlights that is the single biggest comfort difference — a flush downlight puts a bright dot in your peripheral vision every time you look up. ⚠ It costs a little output for the same wattage, and that is the trade. In any room people sit in, it is worth it. 60 mm deep, which is shallow for a deep-set fitting. The numbers 785 lm at 3000 K, 920 lm at 4000 K, 865 lm at 5000 K from 9 W. ⚠ 4000 K is the brightest and 3000 K the dimmest — a 17% spread, so the colour setting does change the level. Ø90 mm cutout — the standard Australian aperture, so it drops into most existing ceilings. Ø100 mm fascia, 120 × 120 mm overall. CRI ≥80, 40,000 hours, rated −20 °C to 45 °C. Dimmable. 240 V AC. IP54 — what it covers Protected against splashing water from any direction. A bathroom ceiling outside the shower zone, a laundry, a covered alfresco — subject to your electrician and AS/NZS 3000. ⚠ Not IP65. Directly above a shower or in an exposed position, ask us for a higher rating. ✅ For most homes IP54 is the sensible default — it covers the wet rooms without paying for a rating the ceiling does not need. Installing it, and setting the colour Spring clips — hold them back, insert, release. A one-person job in a Ø90 mm hole. ⚠ Choose the colour temperature before the fitting goes into the ceiling. The switch is on the fitting, so changing it afterwards means dropping it back out. ⚠ Set every fitting on a circuit the same way. One left on 4000 K in a run of 3000 K is obvious from across the room. 3000 K living areas and bedrooms; 4000 K kitchens, bathrooms and laundries; 5000 K garages and workshops. ⚠ This product appears twice in our catalogue The same downlight is listed on a second page under a longer name. Both sell the same fitting, and you will get the same item whichever you order from. ⚠ It is worth knowing because the two records differ: this listing carries the wattage, the fascia diameter and the overall size, and the other does not. We have flagged the duplication for tidying. Where it works ✅ Living rooms and bedrooms — the deep face earns its keep where people sit. ✅ Bathrooms outside the shower zone, laundries, covered alfrescos — IP54. ✅ Retrofit into a standard Ø90 mm hole. ⛔ Not to be covered with insulation — the fitting or the driver. ⛔ Not directly above a shower — ask us for IP65.

Warranty 3 years. Supplied and supported by Lights For You. Questions Can it be covered with ceiling insulation?No. Its installation sheet states directly that the luminaire and the driver are not suitable for covering with insulation material, and that instruction is on no product field. It matters in a modern ceiling: a fitting without an insulation-contact rating needs a physical clearance kept around it, and over the life of a house insulation gets topped up and moved by people who never saw the instruction sheet. Tell your electrician and note it on the plan. If the ceiling is being insulated to a high R-value, ask us — the Domus CELL range carries an IC-4 rating. What size hole does it need?Ø90 mm, the standard Australian downlight aperture, so it drops into most existing ceilings without patching. The visible fascia is Ø100 mm and the fitting is 60 mm deep, which is shallow for a deep-set downlight — check the void, but it is less demanding than most. What does the deep-set face actually do?It puts the LED well back from the aperture, so from a standing position you see a lit surface rather than the source. In a room with eight or ten downlights that is the biggest single difference in comfort — a flush fitting puts a bright dot in your peripheral vision every time you look up. It costs a little output for the same wattage, and in any room people sit in that is worth it. Can it go in a bathroom?Yes, outside the shower zone. IP54 covers splashing water from any direction, which suits a bathroom ceiling, a laundry or a covered alfresco, subject to your electrician and the zones in AS/NZS 3000. Directly above a shower you want IP65, and we can point you at one. Does the colour setting change the brightness?Yes, by about 17%. It gives 785 lumens at 3000 K, 920 at 4000 K and 865 at 5000 K — so 4000 K is the brightest and 3000 K the dimmest. Worth knowing if you are counting fittings for a room and planning to run them warm. How do I set the colour temperature?On the fitting, before it goes into the ceiling — so decide first, because changing it afterwards means dropping the downlight back out. Set every fitting on a circuit the same way: one left on 4000 K in a run of 3000 K is obvious from across the room. Why does this downlight appear twice on your site?Because it is listed twice — the same fitting on two pages under different names. Both sell the same item. Worth knowing because the two records differ: this listing carries the wattage, the fascia diameter and the overall size, and the other does not. We have flagged the duplication for tidying.
