FIXTURES AND INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Bath and Vanity Lighting Bathrooms require strong, glare-free task lighting. Wall fixtures placed on either side of the bathroom mirror can provide even, shadow-free illumination, but additional horizontal lights are needed above large mirrors. If there is no room to accommodate side-lights, a flush mount with a broad diffusing capability can be placed above the vanity area instead.
no less than 28" apart eye-level 78"
For large mirrors, mount a horizontal vanity light strip 78” off the floor.

TIP
For small mirrors, mount fixtures at least 28” apart and 60” off the floor.
Lighting around the tub should be bright enough for bathing and reading product labels. Shielded fixtures will protect from glare, while low voltage linear lighting makes middle of the night trips to the bathroom easier. For inside the shower, remember to choose recessed downlights approved for wet areas.
