    Thanks Dave
    Air cooled lighting should have a separate extraction fan and duct from the main extraction for it to work properly.

    So in effect I am recirculating the air.

    As was said if the loft isnt insulted and boarded out fully then the fresh air will make its way through somehow,works for me.
    Same here

    maybe i could just unclip the bathroom ducting and use that for fresh air coming in?

    also can i just knock out 1 or 2 bricks and seal around the duct?
    In my old home where i had a loft big enough for a tent i knocked bricks out of my old chimney and had my extraction going through there, as long as your careful it wont be a issue and for intake i had a small vent in my loft from outside i just had my intake from there drawing cold air directly to where my fan was blowing, but i had a net over my fan to stop bugs dust and so on from entering.
