BATHROOM LAMPS



A bathroom is always a challenge illuminating every nook and corner of the bathroom, since the size of a bathroom is quite constrained and an effort is made to use the available floor space and walls for installing sanitary-ware and other objects and accessories necessary while having a shower or a tub bath. The size and protrusions are numerous and there is lot of space left dark under the washbasin. The corners near the shower remain unlit and the overall illumination in the bathroom is dim. This causes problems while bathing and while cleaning . Nooks and corners get neglected and end up looking unclean. 


To overcome all these issues select a lamp which will give direct illumination for a really bright look. It will enhance the bathing experience too. A dim gloomy bathroom is a most unwelcome sight for any person. So some basic level of moisture proofing along with the power cables is essential so that you can have a lamp which will serve well and a regular cleaning cycle is always advised. However with availability of excellent sealant , the moisture issue can be minimized to a large extent. Ceiling mounted lights although good looking and providing decent illumination are continuously inundated with the moisture that rises and condenses on the fixture .With time water percolates in the electrical wiring leading to shock hazard as well as a light with high failure. So while choosing bathroom fixtures care need to be taken to keep moisture resistance a top priority. Failing to do so can cause a lot of misery and cost a lot to maintain. Buy lamps, lamp fixtures which are moisture well.  Another  major issue with bathroom lighting is moisture condensing on the electrical wiring. Moisture is a big enemy of electrical fixture.  Bathroom lamps are special lamps and fixtures which are resistant to high humidity and moisture. Alternately a wall mounted sconce type lamp can be considered. Such lamps are less prone to moisture related issues being wall mounted. Even these lamps will have to be safeguarded from water . So a glass , ceramic or metal fixture is apt for a bathroom lamp. A sealant comes  handy to prevent water ingress and corrosion wherever possible and to apply it while installing the lamp. A bathroom lamp selected after considering all these issues will be a long lasting one providing long trouble free illumination.
