Over head light for shower enclosure

[tony7]

Hi, I'm thinking of getting a light fitted in the ceiling for my shower enclosure.

Any recommendations please

Thanks in advance.

What sort of light did you have in mind? Surface or flush?
Were you thinking of a downlight?
How high is your ceiling?
Just a light, or a fan/light combo?

Hi, A downlight I think and the ceiling is high enough, and flush fitting i think.

Thanks.

High enough?

There is a reason for asking. Is it more or less than 2.25metres from the floor?

OK. So not in a bathroom zone. Then at least it is a DIY job and not notifiable.

Choosing a light from a looks point of view is very much a personal matter. You may want to choose different light temperature, warm white perhaps.
Over a shower, out of zones, the downlight should have a rating of at least IP44.
I like the Collingwood range https://www.collingwoodlighting.com/en/by-application/bathroom-lights

But - as the saying goes - you pays your money, and you take your choice.
