Hoody2 Acoustic Fire Hood (Single)

The HOODY2 Fire and Acoustic Speaker Hood is for ceiling speakers with a cut-out diameter of 250mm or less.

The HOODY2 meets all UK and EU building and IEE Regulations and is especially designed for in-ceiling speakers and features a fire rating of up to 90 minutes, Parts B,L,C and E compliant and covers all makes of speakers. The HOODY range will bring your installations into conformity with the latest IEE and Building Regulations for Fire and Acoustic integrity of ceilings. The regulations state that once a hole has been made in the ceiling for a speaker, the integrity of its construction and its ability to perform in a fire is significantly reduced.

It is recommended that an Acoustic Fire hood is fitted to all ceiling speaker locations, but it is a requirement that hoods are fitted to all in-ceiling speakers that are installed where a ceiling is rated for 30 mins or more to ensure compliance. If you are unsure, be safe… always fit a hood. Due to its acoustic construction the HOODY2 will also stop a large amount of backwards sound leakage from the speakers to the rooms above its location, making in-ceiling speaker installation below a child’s bedroom, for example achievable.
