Affordable Lighting Upgrades
Proper LED lighting is essential to the look and usefulness of the bathroom where you get ready to start the new day. So why do we put up with uneven shadows and having to strain in the mirror every morning?
Below are some simple and cost effective solutions that will help you solve the most common bathroom lighting problems.
Problem: You often cut yourself while shaving in the shower.
Solution: Fully functional lighting in the shower or the vanity basin should be bright enough for cleaning, shaving and applying make-up. Adding some recessed LED downlights in the bathroom will focus the light where you need it the most... at the vanity mirror.
Problem: Uneven shadows or glare and the lighting is inadequate when you look into the mirror.
Solution: Upgrade your lighting by taking the old fixture down and buying new ones. The best lighting at the vanity utilizes LED lighting with cross illumination providing for shadow-free lighting.
Installing surface mounted LED light battens single over the vanity, or a LED light bar over the mirror you don't need to cut new holes for electrical connections. as they are surface mounted.
Problem: The fixture housing your bathroom's overhead light and exhaust fan is yellowed and cracked, and it looks out of place with your current decoration.
Solution: Many lighting companies have come out with decorative exhaust fan/overhead LED light combinations that really help dress up the bathroom. If your existing fixture is in good condition then why not just replace the old inefficent bulbs with new LED light bulbs. We personally favour Ecofire LED light bulbs as they are of high quality, good color rendering and at reasonable prices.
