Had all our you beaut, brand new lights installed before hand over and for a week or two everytime we turned on a switch, there was light. One time, in a bank of 4 led lights, only 3 came on. Ok so its only a light, I can fix this... wasn't obvious however, how to gain access to the light, so we toddled off to Beacon and asked if they could sell us a light and perhaps a few spares, and tell me how to change it ? I was somewhat astonished to learn, is under the 5 yr warranty, and an Electrician was booked who duly came out and replaced said light. After 5 years I can use my own electrician. We have 12 or 15 of these lights, hope they are as good as they are supposed to be. How times change.....! Re: How many required ! 2Aug 17, 2012 9:50 pm What type of light? I thought LED's are supposed to last for years? So I suppose yours was faulty? And it's good they took care of it for you. But I'm surprised you couldn't of just changed it over yourself! Re: How many required ! 3Aug 18, 2012 8:56 am Yes Jazzy they are supposed to last for years (hence 5 yr warranty and this one was faulty) but because we dont have each light with its own plug (all are "hardwired" into the system), they have to be pulled out of the roof and opened with a screw driver and the wiring removed, and the processed reversed, to install the new light. Wish we had been told about this...might have gone to the extra expense of individual plugs...oh well I would never build with Fowler homes. I built with them in 2021 and till date maintenance issues are pending.
