What is the best light for bathroom?

Ensure all fixtures are suitable for bathroom environments with a waterproof rating of IP44 or higher. Cool white light (4000K-6500K) is generally preferred and consider dimmers for flexibility and creating different atmospheres.

How do you light a room with low ceilings?

Overhead lighting

  • Flush mounts sit close to the ceiling, avoiding the feeling of being cramped.
  • Semi-flush mounts offer a slightly more decorative option while still being low profile.
  • Recessed lights can be used to create a modern look and provide even lighting.

Wall lighting

  • Sconces add elegance while freeing up floor and table space.
  • Uplighters direct light upwards to create a sense of height.

Table and floor lamps

  • Versatile options, provide both task and ambient lighting.
  • Choose lamps with adjustable heights for flexibility.

Can an integrated LED light bulb be replaced?

No, an integrated LED light bulb cannot be replaced. The term "integrated LED" means that the LED lights are built directly into the fixture and are not designed to be swapped out.

What is an LED light fixture?

An LED light fixture is a lighting device that incorporates Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) as its primary light source. Unlike traditional fixtures which use incandescent or fluorescent bulbs, LED fixtures have the LEDs built-in.

What are candelabra lights?

Candelabra lights are characterised by their small size and distinctive shape. They are often used in decorative fixtures like chandeliers, sconces and ceiling fans. The term candelabra refers to the specific type of base used for these bulbs, which is smaller than a standard base. They often resemble miniature candles.

Are all chandeliers dimmable?

Not all chandeliers are dimmable. While many chandeliers can accommodate dimmable bulbs, it depends on the specific fixture and its wiring.

How do you calculate downlight spacing?

  • Aim for a distance of 1.5 to 2 meters (5 to 6.5 feet) between downlights.
  • Maintain a distance of 1 meter (3.3 feet) between the downlights and the walls.
  • For uniform lighting, SHR can be used as a guide: 

    • SHR = Spacing to height ratio
    • Take SHR and x by your ceiling height
      • e.g. SHR of 0.8 x 2.4m ceiling height = 1.9 metre spacing between downlights
  • Consider your ceiling height. For higher ceilings, you might be able to increase the spacing slightly. Larger rooms may require more downlights, Wider beam angles allow for greater spacing and If you need brighter light, reduce the spacing between downlights.
