After a hard and busy day, returning home to take a hot bath, and then returning to the bedroom for a good sleep, that is a wonderful thing. Like the bedroom, the bathroom is a place to remove the fatigue of our day. Therefore, the lighting design and selection of lamps in the bathroom are actually as important as bedroom lighting.
The light in the bathroom should not be too bright or too dark. Therefore, whether we can take a bath comfortably, the choice of bathroom lighting fixtures is very important. So, what should you pay attention to when choosing home bathroom lighting fixtures?
What standard does bathroom lighting refer to?
1. IP protection grade of lamps and lanterns
When we buy bathroom lamps, we generally know that waterproof function is very important, but many people do not know where this waterproof function can be seen. Usually, bathroom lamps are classified by their IP code in the product quality certification, that is, IP protection level. Lamps produced by regular manufacturers and brands will have this parameter.
It is composed of two numbers, the previous number indicates the level of protection against dust and foreign objects. The numbers at the back indicate the level of the lamps in terms of moisture resistance and water resistance. The size of the numbers is proportional to the level of protection.
2. Lighting effect
A lot of bathroom lighting we have seen, is a lamp to get the whole bathroom lighting. In fact, if we want the bathroom lighting to show a better effect, we also need to configure the bathroom with basic lighting, functional lighting, and even accent lighting, just like other spaces in the home.
For the choice of bathroom mirror headlights, we recommend simplicity. Even if the mirror headlights are bright enough, they can completely replace the ceiling lamps as the main lighting source.
The above are the basic principles and standards for bathroom lighting design and lamp selection. Then, how to choose the right one?
1. The selection of lamps and lanterns should not be too much, it is good to be simple, otherwise it will make people feel dazzled; in addition, we believe that crystal lamps are not suitable for installation in the bathroom.
2. Paper or lamps that are easy to rust should not be placed in the bathroom, because the bathroom is generally too humid, and the lamps selected must be waterproof to ensure personal safety.
3. It is recommended to choose light sources with adjustable brightness, one is daylight light source and the other is warm light source, which is practical and convenient.
