Why We Love Bathroom Recessed Lighting

Recessed light fixtures in the bathroom add to the overall decor of the space and pair well with existing sconces and light bars to ensure you have plenty of light output. Unlike sconces or light from a flush ceiling light, recessed fixtures mount inside of the ceiling, adding a functional element to the bathroom without taking up too much room on the ceiling. And these can lights are damp and wet rated for use in spaces exposed to moisture, making them ideal for shower and bath lighting.

Recessed can lights benefit rooms with a limited amount of ceiling space by mounting inside of the ceiling while providing ample downlighting from a halogen or LED light source. While the light is considered general, it can be bright and fully illuminate the vanity it is installed in. In modern bathrooms, recessed lighting is used to complement a bath bar or pair of wall sconces and can also be installed as overhead shower lighting. The result of a combination of recessed lighting and a wall-mounted fixtures creates a well-rounded amount of light in a space you want to ensure has plenty of lighting.

Bathroom Recessed Lighting Ideas for Every Style

Recessed lighting is especially easy to introduce into your home because it blends in seamlessly among other light fixtures and decor by installing tucked away in the ceiling.

How to Choose the Best Bathroom Recessed Lighting

Before you purchase new recessed lighting fixtures for your bathroom, it is important to determine the housing type required. Recessed housings are either available for remodeled homes or new construction homes and you will need to verify which one is right for your bathroom's ceiling. Further, certain housings are required for ceilings with insulation to ensure safe lighting at all times. You will also need to determine the correct size to install in your bathroom ceiling. Recessed trims are available in a range of sizes from 3" to 6" and will need to be accommodated by the right size of housing.

Other Considerations

Recessed lighting is a popular option for other rooms of the home too. Be sure to view the complete recessed ceiling lights category for additional trims and housings you may want to add throughout your home. Flushmount lighting is similar to recessed lighting in that it is a low profile style of fixture, yet it installs on the outside of the ceiling. If you prefer to use flushmounts in your bathroom, be sure they are UL listed for damp location use - in most bathrooms, the presence of water is unavoidable. And finally, you can set the mood lighting in your bathroom (ideal for relaxing in the bath) by placing your light fixtures on a dimmer. Dimmer switches are easy to install and work with almost all styles of recessed lights.
