|
|
|
I want to have sunken spotlights in the ceiling of our bathroom.
I understand that they need to be zone one above the shower cubicle.
I have looked at various websites and have seen 35w and 50w units.
Is there a certain number of units that you need for a given ceiling area?
I understand that some have varying widths of beam, but is there a calculation I need to do?
My ceiling area is approx 2m x 2m
Thanks for your help ! |

It isn't a very big ceiling area!
2 downlights should be suffice |

Ok then 3 since you've added on another metre nearly!
6 would be taking the p*ss to say the least |
