Vanity Lighting for Bathroom Safety

Bathroom lights could pose a safety hazard in the event that you have an electrical short. One way to ensure you’re safe from electrical shocks and potential fires is by installing GFCI protection. A ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) is required for any outlets or switches that could get wet while using your bathroom, including the bathtub area, sink, and shower stall.

Additionally, consider night lighting for your bathroom. When the eyes are adjusted to darkness, very few foot candles are needed. All this to help prevent stumbles and falls. A 5-watt nightlight is just right for most homes, according to lighting experts.

 Bathroom lighting isn’t just for brightening up your space, but also helps you transition from day to night! When you want to wind down after a long day, harsh light can jolt you awake. Aside from a traditional ceiling light, consider recessed lighting or flush mount lighting to send soft light throughout the entire room rather than just one harsh light overhead.

Multiple lamp shade fixtures diffuse the lighting so it will provide a softer, less harsh look. Linear fixtures offer multiple lengths that can be mounted either horizontal or vertical and on the top or side or a mirror for even lighting where it is needed.
