Product Care Guide
Plaster
Dust with a soft, dry cloth only. Plaster is porous, so avoid all liquid cleaners — they'll stain or mark the surface. Raw plaster fittings can be painted: use a matte emulsion in two thin coats, allowing each to dry fully before powering on. Don't install in bathrooms or other damp areas unless the IP rating allows it.
Brass & metal
Brass develops a natural patina over time, which most people prefer. To keep the current finish, wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. For a brighter look, use a brass-specific polish sparingly. Never use lemon, vinegar, or abrasive cleaners — these damage lacquered brass irreversibly. Polished chrome and nickel finishes can be wiped with a damp microfibre cloth.
Glass
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly to avoid water marks. For stubborn marks, a mild glass cleaner is fine. Always ensure the fitting is switched off and fully cool before cleaning.
Fabric shades
Dust with a soft brush or vacuum on the lowest setting using an upholstery attachment. Avoid wet cleaning — fabric shades can stain, warp, or shrink. Spot-clean small marks only with a barely-damp microfibre cloth.
Ceramic
Glazed ceramic can be wiped with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Unglazed or matte ceramic should be kept dry and dusted only. Always ensure the fitting is switched off and cool first.
Before you clean
Switch off at the wall and let the fitting cool fully. Never spray cleaner directly onto a fitting — apply to a cloth first. If your fitting has visible wiring, electrical components, or LED drivers exposed, keep moisture well away from these areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Defoe recessed wall light need to be installed by an electrician?
Yes, as this is a hardwired recessed fitting, installation must comply with UK Building Regulations Part P. Unless you are a qualified electrician or competent person, you'll need to hire a registered electrician to cut the recess, connect the mains wiring, and certify the work. The fitting requires a cavity depth of at least 67mm plus wiring space.
Can I replace the LED bulb in this wall light when it eventually fails?
No, the Defoe features an integrated 3W LED module that is not user-replaceable. Integrated LEDs typically last 25,000–50,000 hours (roughly 10–20 years of normal use), after which the entire fitting would need replacing. The benefit is a slimmer, more compact design than bulb-based alternatives.
Is this wall light dimmable with a standard dimmer switch?
The specifications do not indicate dimming capability, so you should assume this fitting is non-dimmable. Installing it on a dimmer circuit may cause flickering, buzzing, or damage to the driver. If you require dimming functionality, you'll need to select a different product explicitly marked as dimmable.
How bright is the 3W LED and what colour temperature does it produce?
The integrated LED produces 300 lumens at 3000K, which is a warm white light similar to a traditional halogen bulb. This output is suitable for accent lighting, bedside reading, or highlighting architectural features, but not bright enough to serve as the sole light source in a room. The adjustable reading spot allows you to direct light exactly where needed.
Can this recessed wall light be used in a bathroom?
No, the Defoe has an IP20 rating, meaning it offers no protection against moisture and is only suitable for dry indoor locations. For bathrooms, you need a minimum of IP44 (or IP65 for shower zones), so this fitting should be installed in living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, or other non-humid areas only.
What are the exact dimensions and how much wall depth is required?
The fitting measures 169mm wide, 140mm high, and requires a recess depth of 67mm. You'll need a cavity wall or suitable void behind the plasterboard to accommodate the housing, plus additional space for the mains connection and driver. Always check your wall construction and depth before purchasing a recessed fitting.
