Product Information
Ensure your ceiling speakers meet the latest regulations and protect against the potential spread of fire and sound, with the HOODY 0.5 Speaker Hood
Designed to cover the rear of ceiling speakers, this fire hood is required by legislation for many new buildings. Whether legally required or not, we would recommend them as a safety precaution. Using a fire hood helps resist the spread of fire through the various floors of a building.
A further advantage of this hood is that it prevents the leakage of sound upwards – potentially into another property.
HOODY Speaker Hoods meet all relevant UK building and IEE Regulations. Custom designed for ceiling speakers, HOODY 0.5 is Parts B,L,C and E compliant and offers fire protection for up to 90 minutes for all circular and rectangular speaker designs from 3″ to 5″ (76 - 127mm) diameter.
It’s a requirement for all speakers that are installed below any habitable rooms and escape routes to be treated. A standard two storey house for example will require all the ground floor speaker locations to have hoods fitted. If a house has three floors the regulations require hoods to be fitted on the ground and first floor speakers.
The HOODY 0.5 dimensions are - Diameter 180mm / Depth 145mm
