Toilet lighting. Lighting in the toilet

In the bathroom, natural lighting, as a rule, is not provided, therefore, when repairing this room in without fail you have to deal with the choice of fixtures installed in the toilet. In this case, it is necessary to take into account the small area and limited space. And for normal lighting of the toilet room, an ordinary incandescent lamp is not enough, and it will look like modern interior not very pretty.

In this article:

Features of the organization of lighting in the toilet room

To create a full-fledged lighting system in the toilet, it is necessary to provide for all the features of this room. Usually in apartment buildings residential buildings a very small area is allocated for these premises. Therefore, it is very difficult for them to determine the optimal interior solution.

Since the main problem is the lack of space, lighting equipment should first of all visually make it larger. Properly selected toilet lamps will allow you to achieve not only an expansion of the area, but also other points that can improve the perception of a specific room.

Basic requirements for lighting devices

• Enhanced moisture protection. It is recommended to purchase luminaires marked IP65/66, which provide protection for lighting equipment even from direct water flow.
• The tightness of the lighting device. The connecting sections of the housing must be as tight as possible in order to completely prevent the ingress of not only moisture, but also dirt into the lighting device. Otherwise, its electronic mechanisms will quickly fail.
• Resistance of lighting equipment to temperature changes. This indicator must be taken into account when the bathroom is combined with a bath.

Important! When connecting a ceiling chandelier on your own, it is important to prevent contact electrical wiring and water.

Backlight levels

Before choosing lighting equipment for the toilet, you must first decide on the backlight level option. There are several for this space.

Top ceiling lighting

This option involves the use of ceiling lamps, of which there are a lot of models on the modern market. Therefore, when choosing, it is worth considering the main requirements for organizing lighting systems in wet rooms. It is also necessary to provide for the height of the ceiling.

Note! Ceiling placement of light sources will provide an opportunity to avoid reducing the space of the toilet from the side of the walls. This is ideal for a small room.

wall lighting

This variant of the organization of the lighting system is suitable for toilet rooms with low ceilings. The main nuance in this case is the correct location of the lighting fixtures on the wall. They should not interfere with entry / exit to / from the premises.

Bottom floor lighting

This option for organizing the lighting system involves the use of flexible light sources or point lighting fixtures built into the floor base.

As a rule, such systems are used quite rarely when compared with the first two options, and most often for spacious toilet rooms in private houses, country cottages or combined bathrooms with a bathroom. It can be additional decorative lighting.

Note! Any presented option for organizing lighting systems in the toilet and bathroom can be done independently.

Choice of lighting equipment

Properly selected illuminators are the basis for organizing effective illumination of a small room. Model and appearance lighting equipment will depend on the selected backlight level.

ceiling type

• When choosing a small-sized chandelier, one light source is sufficient, placed in the center of the ceiling surface.
• You will need several spotlights, depending on their power. They are evenly distributed over the entire area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe ceiling.

Important! Spot-type lighting devices are only suitable for suspended ceiling structures.

wall type

In this situation, it is possible to use wall sconces. For a small bathroom with low ceilings, there is no better option. But it is important to give preference to flat models. wall lamps which will take up the least amount of space. Otherwise, they will constantly interfere when moving around the room.

floor type

When designing a floor lighting system, you can use point models of illuminators. There are versions of luminaires with a high-strength body, built directly into the floor base and into the walls (as a rule, they are placed below). You can also use flexible neon or a strip with LED elements.

Note! The required number of light sources is calculated based on the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe room and the illumination standards according to SNiP.

Benefits of using LED spotlights

• Saving electrical energy . Even though the light in the toilet is turned on very rarely and for a short time, everyone wants to save as much as possible. LED light sources for this most suitable option, especially for the elderly, who may well forget to turn off the light, and it will stay on all day.
• Pretty bright light, not straining the organs of vision. Even a few lighting devices installed in the corners of the room, which will create a soft all-encompassing glow, will not adversely affect the eyes.
• Ease of installation of lighting equipment. Compact LED luminaires can be easily installed by yourself, without the involvement of specialists.
• High degree of equipment protection against moisture. Even though the air space in the toilet is not as saturated with moisture as in the bathroom, an extra precaution does not hurt. But for a combined bathroom, this criterion is quite important.

Lamps installed in the toilet

Installation of the lighting system

Connecting the fixtures installed in the toilet is a rather important step. repair work. The duration of its operational period will depend on the quality of the installation and connection of the lighting device.

Important! When performing electrical work yourself, you must comply with safety requirements so as not to injure yourself.

Installation of the illuminator itself is given in the instructions that are included in its package. But with the correct connection of the electrical wiring must be carefully dealt with.

Wiring diagram

• First you need to draw a plan for the location of lighting fixtures, if several of them will be used.
• Next, the surface is marked where the wires will pass.
• Before starting electrical work, the room or the entire apartment is disconnected from electricity.
• On the drawn lines, using a perforator, it is necessary to make channels (strobes). Electrical wiring will be hidden directly in them.
• Now you can lay the wires (this must be done from the box to the switch). Separate wire for each lighting device.

Important! Wiring in the toilet and bathroom should run at a distance of one and a half meters from the floor.

• After laying the cable, it is necessary to insulate all connecting sections. To do this, you need a special insulating PVC tape.

Important! The ends of the wires before connecting them are carefully stripped of insulation by 1-2 cm.

• Fixing the wiring in the channels is carried out using special dowels - clamps.
• Upon completion of the work performed, the strobes are smeared with a special putty that is resistant to moisture.

Conclusion! Observing the safety requirements when performing electrical work and clearly guided by the installation instructions for the lamp, the electrical wiring diagram, the installation of the lighting system can be done independently, without the involvement of a master.

Fixtures for bathrooms and toilets- this is a whole separate category of luminaires designed for wet rooms, which simply need special lighting. Just imagine what the lamp endures, for example, in bathrooms: steam, high humidity, splashing water. For such premises, there are bathroom lamps, with the so-called IP protection. As a general rule, this value should be IP 44.

Ceiling lamp for bathrooms and toilets must be waterproof!

What are bathroom fixtures marked IP 44? They are sealed, made in such a way that not even the smallest drop of water gets on the lamp or cartridge. The visible outer part of such luminaires – this is a one-piece design without any holes (unlike their counterparts - ordinary spotlights, which are a decorative rim with a hole where you can easily get to the lamp).

In luminaires for wet rooms, access to the lamp is closed with transparent or most often frosted glass. By the way, they are made according to the same principle. For greater tightness, all collapsible parts bathroom fixtures completed with silicone gaskets. The light source in these lamps can be either in the form of a good old lamp with a reflector (MR 16), where you are free to choose which lamp to put in energy-saving or halogen, or with a built-in LED part. The latter, having a low build-in height, we highly recommend in rooms where the distance between the main and the draft ceiling is minimal.

We kindly ask you to use in all rooms with a humid environment only a lamp with moisture protection, which will serve you faithfully much longer than lamps for ordinary rooms, and most importantly – without risk to your property and health. Modern market bathroom fixtures has a wide enough choice for classic interior Your bathroom, and for the modern.

By the way, a small addition: in bathrooms that are not combined with a bathroom, where there is practically no high humidity and the risk of moisture ingress, you CAN use ordinary spotlights without moisture protection. But this is only in those cases when you are really convinced of the absence of moisture. In bathrooms, we recommend using ONLY waterproof special luminaires, which you will find in this section.

Buy lamps for bathrooms and toilets in Chelyabinsk you can in our store. A large assortment waterproof spotlights for bathrooms and toilets is waiting for your attention, and our site - for your orders.

To feel comfortable in own house(apartment), consider the smallest details and trifles, including lighting in the toilet, bathroom and storage room. Only in this way the room will meet the requirements placed on it, the conditions necessary for rest and work will be created.

The importance of lighting in the restroom

One of the main differences between the toilet and other living quarters is the lack of natural light. Even during the day it is dark and gloomy. The choice of lamps and lighting fixtures is closely related to the wall, ceiling and floor finishes used. Focus on the dimensions of the room, which is usually extremely small.

For example, in the toilets of "Khrushchev" you need to use brighter appliances. If the luminous flux is low, the walls of such a room will “squeeze on the sides”.

The choice of lighting fixtures and materials for finishing the toilet should be carried out in parallel. Without one, there can be no other!

Lighting on floors, walls and ceilings

Before choosing lighting fixtures for the restroom, decide on the level of illumination. The light flux can come from different levels:

1. Ceiling - overhead lighting. If the lamp meets the requirements for the restroom, the device can be anything. This is a standard solution for small toilets, but the choice depends on the height of the ceilings.
2. Wall appliances - an option for rooms with low ceilings. When choosing a place to place sconces or lamps in the form of a candle, make sure that they do not interfere with free movement.
3. Floor - bottom lighting. There are two options - flexible LED strips are installed along the plinth, spotlights are mounted on the floor. This solution is less common than the others, and if applied, exclusively in conjunction with one of the two previous methods. An original and non-standard approach that slightly increases the brightness of the lighting. The main purpose is to decorate the room.

Lamp selection

Choosing a luminaire is a process that does not require a serious approach. Another thing is the purchase of the necessary light bulbs, direct light sources. Consider their varieties and determine what are the operating conditions in the restroom.

Incandescent lamps

The principle of operation of electrical products is based on a spiral (often made of tungsten). The current flowing in the spiral creates friction, which leads to the formation of a glow. The cavity is filled with inert gases or is in a deep vacuum. This makes it possible to exclude oxidation and rupture of the spiral when an electric current is applied. If you carefully break the light bulb, the coil may not crack, but as soon as electricity is supplied, it will burn out.

The power of incandescent lamps ranges from 15 to 1000 watts. In the restroom, use lighting devices with a power of no more than 40 watts. The heating temperature of products of higher power can reach 200 ° C, which is very dangerous if products are built into plastic wall panels and stretch ceilings.

Lamps powered directly from electrical network, are available with a permissible voltage from 220 to 240 V. It is much safer to use luminaires with a step-down transformer for lamps of 12, 24 or 36 V. The level of illumination remains the same.

When operating lamps with voltages below 220 V (for example, 180 V), be sure to install a step-down transformer, which will reduce the physical parameters to the desired value and protect the product from premature burnout due to power surges.

When choosing a transformer, add together the power of the lamps used and increase the resulting value by 10%. The result will be the required power of the transformer. Make a parallel connection, make sure equal to the length all wires. The latter is necessary so that the lamps burn the same way. Light bulbs located farther from the transformer will be dimmer, which looks ugly in chandeliers.

Halogen lamps

The advantages of halogen lamps are obvious:

• moisture protection;
• compactness;
• glow efficiency;
• minimum power consumption.

Far from a budget option, since most halogen lamps require step-down transformers to operate at a voltage of 12 V. Such transformers are very expensive, but saving will not lead to anything good. Cheap lamps and transformers are designed and manufactured in China. The first ones quickly fail and consume electricity more than the declared value, the second ones make noise during operation.

A high-quality transformer is durable, reliable and silent. Presentable appearance allows you to use it as a decorative ornament.

Halogens are of two types:

• built-in - placed in suspended ceilings from any materials or ceilings;
• open.

In most cases, the toilet uses spotlights with the ability to change the direction of the light flux.

Note! In stores you can find halogen lamps with a voltage of 220 V.

The principle of operation of these lamps is built around a flask filled with mercury vapor under pressure. When the lighting device is turned on, under the influence of electrical discharges on mercury vapor, radiation is formed, accompanied by a glow. Despite the apparent insecurity (the use of toxic mercury), if mechanical stress is avoided, such lamps will last longer than conventional and halogen lamps.

Housekeepers have other advantages - increased light output and light temperature threshold. Transformers are not needed in the electrical circuit, since energy-saving lamps contain a built-in ballast (ballast) that performs their functions.

It is allowed to use fluorescent lamps of daylight, in the designation of which the capital letter "D" is used.

LED lamp

Lighting devices include many LEDs located on lamps of various shapes. Luminous efficiency is ten times higher than incandescent lamps. The indicator can reach 150 lm / W. Add to that a long service life.

Have LED lamps and its shortcomings - the negative impact of white light on the visual apparatus. On the other hand, not much time is spent in the restroom, so if this is true, the impact is negligible. Look great LED lights and in terms of design.

Check out the table performance characteristics for all types of lamps. Here is the approximate cost of each:

Toilet lighting automation

One of best solutions for small latrines, three to five spotlights will be used.

After choosing the level of illumination, fixtures and lamps, proceed to the next step - considering the possibility of organizing automatic lighting.

Benefits of automating toilet lighting:

• significant savings in electrical energy - although the time spent in the toilet is short, situations are inevitable when, after relieving the need, they forget to turn off the light;
• ease of operation - no switches, no need to press the button or look for it in the dark at night, reach for the switches, which is important for small family members.

The latter will also avoid unpleasant situations when one of the cohabitants turns off the light outside, and you cannot “shout” to him while inside. At night, you do not have to look for a switch in the dark.

Varieties of sensors

When arranging automatic lighting systems in the toilet, three types of sensors are used - sound, ultrasonic and infrared.

To activate the first, sound is used, and its sensitivity is in the range from 40 to 50 dB (clapping hands). The sensor housing is equipped with two regulators. With the help of one, the noise level is set for closing the contact, and the second - the duration of the glow after the lamp is turned on. There are many variations, and the cost is at least 350 rubles.

The advantages of sound sensors are the flexibility of settings, turning off by sound (clap your hands a second time, it will become dark in the room).

Disadvantages - a small area of ​​\u200b\u200baction, but since the toilet is small, this is irrelevant. The use of hypersensitive models will lead to an increase in the number of false positives.

Ultrasonic sensors are characterized by small dimensions, they are easy to disguise, they respond faster. The principle of operation is based on the propagation of ultrasonic waves from 20 to 50 kHz. When crossing through the sensor, these waves cause a circuit closure - the Doppler effect. The cost of such products starts from 350 rubles.

There is only one drawback - periodic movement is required, otherwise the lamp will go out. If you linger in the toilet while sitting on the toilet, you will occasionally have to wave your arms.

Infrared sensors are equipped with lenses that focus infrared radiation and direct it to a special sensor. At a certain intensity of radiation (the appearance of a person in the controlled area), the circuit is closed. The duration of the circuit is adjusted using the regulator on the sensor housing. Motion sensors are more expensive than others - their minimum cost is 600 rubles.

Flaws infrared sensors- Numerous false positives due to the temperature difference associated with the proximity of hot water pipes or air conditioning.

Select the appropriate sensor and then turn it on electrical circuit so that it is between the power source and the lighting fixtures.

Conclusion

When lighting the toilet, you can use any of the options considered - a matter of taste. On the other hand, it is recommended to operate lamps with minimum voltage and installed transformers.

The ideal option is point devices with LEDs located on the ceiling or walls. Floor lighting is a decorative solution that does not affect the light output.

Reading time ≈ 3 minutes

Making repairs in the toilet, many people do not attach importance to the lighting in this room at all, believing that one not too bright and low-power light bulb may be enough. And they do it in vain, since usually no one stays in this room for a long time, so there can be no talk of any energy savings here. But if the lighting in the toilet is too weak, then only some discomfort can be felt.

The importance of lighting in the toilet

Even with the most stylish and well-chosen finishing material of this room, the walls and floor will look faded and ugly, if you do not think about lighting. As in any other room, every person in this small room should feel comfort and coziness. But when making lighting in this room, it is necessary to take into account the dimensions and total area this room. For example, if it is necessary to light the toilet in Khrushchev, then it should be brighter, since the area here is very small and, with dim lighting, the walls will seem to be squeezed on the sides.

The approach to lighting in this room should be completely different than in all other rooms. The thing is that there is natural light, which in the daytime fills the rooms with light, bringing warmth with it. And in a closed small space only a brighter light can drive away darkness and gloom. But the right material for finishing walls, floors, and also the ceiling will be of great importance.

Used fixtures

If you look at the photos of lighting in the toilet that are attached to this article, you can understand what lamps can be used here and how they can be positioned. Here, both luxurious sconces on the walls and spotlights on the ceiling are suitable. When choosing fixtures, it is worth considering which walls are in the toilet, what color they are and what material was used for decoration.

In a small room, it is better that the walls are light in color. This applies to both wallpaper and tiles. The floor can be darker, contrasting. If the walls are light and the lamps burn brightly, then this will help to visually expand the space. When choosing fixtures, it is necessary to take into account the design style of the toilet room. In this case, the ceiling should in no case be darker than the walls.

Spotlights can be installed both on the ceiling and on the walls. If possible, it is better to combine them with

Lighting plays an important role in creating an attractive modern bathroom interior. Good light in a closed room creates a comfortable environment. A variety of fixtures in the bathroom and toilet is necessary for proper lighting work surfaces and space zoning. In addition, we must not forget about safety, since high humidity and frequent temperature changes impose special requirements on lighting in the bathroom and toilet. Let's look at these issues in more detail, and learn how to install fixtures in the bathroom on our own according to the European standard and our own needs.

Bathroom lighting can be divided into three types: overhead lighting, decorative lighting and local lighting.

All fixtures are not often used separately, as a rule, they are combined. Together, they give the most successful light, making the room cozy and functional. Each type of lighting is divided into subspecies: chandeliers, perimeter lighting, built-in ceiling, lamps.

Design match of light and bathroom style

Do not forget about the design matching of fixtures and the style of your bathroom. The choice of a lamp should also be based on the stylistic decision of the room. For example, metal lamps of strict forms will look silly in a bathroom in Japanese style where the emphasis is on soothing warm tones. And in a bathroom with an ultra-modern design, lighting fixtures with clear lines in the form of geometric shapes will harmoniously fit in. It is here that the material can be metal, plastic or chrome.

The ratio of the size of the lamp and the area of ​​​​the bathroom

The size of the lighting device determines the area of ​​​​the room. The hanging model is not installed on low ceiling, in this case, choose a spherical lamp or a ceiling lamp - a plate. Do not choose models with a body made of plastic or colored glass, they distort the light, and therefore a closed-type shade made of transparent or matte white material will be the best solution.

Illumination level: calculation by bathroom area

When mounting the light in the bathroom or toilet, adhere to the norms of illumination, they will save your eyes. To place a bathroom according to the European standard, the illumination norm is 200 lux: if one lux is equal to one lumen (direct luminous flux per 1 sq. M area), then for a bathroom with an area of ​​5 sq. m. m need 1000lm (lumens). Now let's convert these numbers to watts. The flow of light in the bathroom will always be direct and the ratio of 200lx=200lm/m2 is ideal. Consider several types of lighting fixtures, for example, a 75W incandescent lamp creates a luminous flux of 935lm, which is enough for a 5m2 room according to ISO 8995. Here are a few more examples:

• halogen incandescent lamp 230V 42W -900 lumens;
• induction lamp 40W -2800 lumens;
• LED lamp 230V 10W - 860 lumens;
• LED from 40 to 80W - 6000 lumens;
• sunlight - 3.63 × 10 28 lumens.

If light colors predominate in the decoration of the bathroom, choose the minimum indicators, the maximum - with a dark finish.

Now you just select the fixtures you need and in the quantity you need to properly illuminate your room. .

Bathroom lighting safety

GOST prescribes to divide the bathroom into special security zones. At the same time, each of them has its own requirements for laying wiring and arranging lighting.

Scheme according to the requirements for lamps, depending on the distance from water sources.

Zone 0 - type of protection IPx6 - these are areas located in the bath and under the shower. It is allowed to use electrical appliances with a power of no more than 12 volts. Zone 1 - type of protection IPx4 - it starts from the top edge of the shower or bath and extends to the ceiling. Here you can install more complex devices, for example, water heaters. But provided that they have good waterproofing. Zone 2 - type of protection IPx4 - this zone is located within a radius of half a meter from the first. Less protected devices and lamps are installed here. Zone 3 - type of protection IPx0 - sockets and lamps of the usual type can be installed here without special protection. It is located at a distance of at least 2 m from the bath or shower.

Install a humidistat that will start the fan in time and dry the room to prevent an accident.

Rules for the operation of electricity in the bathroom

Remember that electrical boxes, branch wires and distributors are prohibited in all areas. When wiring, use an RCD. Then, in case of moisture getting inside the devices or on the wiring, there will be no short circuit. All electrical appliances installed in the bathroom must be equipped with an anti-drip coating, it is designed to protect against leaks. The use of tees and extension cords in the bathroom is prohibited and this must be taken into account when placing lamps in it - the appliance must be connected directly to the outlet, and it must be waterproof.

Bathroom socket with safety shutter

It is impossible to install a sconce over the bath - the lamp may explode due to contact with water of a heated ceiling.

There is a way out, and it depends on the size of the room. If the ceilings in your bathroom are high, then install spotlights at a great distance from the water. This is the case when you can use products with a small degree of protection. In the event of a short circuit, the transformer will turn off, blocking the flow of current to the problem area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe wiring and preventing ignition.

Installation of electrical wiring in the bathroom: basic principles

So, lighting fixtures are selected according to the level of illumination and safety. It remains to mount them. Let's say you not only decided to buy a couple of new lamps for your bathroom, but you want to completely change the entire lighting scheme, or, in other words, to make overhaul in the bathroom. Here are a few simple tips, which will help you do it yourself with high quality and safely. Perhaps the tips will be useful to those who want to track the work of electricians for reliability.

Rules for laying electrical wiring in the bathroom

Types of bathroom cable

Before proceeding with the replacement of electrical wiring, it is necessary to disconnect the existing cables from the current in the junction box. It is necessary to make sure that all electrical appliances are de-energized using an indicator. It is necessary to complete the gating of the ceiling and walls to the required points where it is planned to install one or another electrical appliance for the installation of a new power line. You can lay the cable using corrugations, and so that the wire does not fall out, it is fixed with plaster. Special clamps are also suitable for the basis of fasteners, which are pre-mounted in strobes, and then a corrugation with a cable is inserted into them. After this stage is completed, the wires in the junction box are connected.

It is better to place the junction box in a room adjacent to the bathroom in order to avoid moisture getting inside it. If all the work is carried out correctly and there are no short circuits, the strobe is sealed.

Installation of cable in strobes

The wires to the electrical appliance are brought out in the place where it will be located, and an end about 25–30 cm long is left. We do the same with the lamps that will be on the floor.

If several lamps will be turned on by one switch, connect them in series, instead of pulling a separate wire from each of them.

For convenience on phase wires lamps, you can write and hang the name of the cable, so as not to get confused later. Then all electrical appliances are attached. We examined the features of the installation of the main type of electrical wiring - hidden. But if you decide to lay the cable open way- protect it with corrugation.

Installing fixtures in the bath: video installation guide and photo ideas

We begin to fix the lamps in the bathroom from the ceiling. The first option is shades or plates. On a concrete ceiling, this device is strengthened with hardware, which usually comes with a lighting device. If the ceiling is wooden, then everything is simpler - we fix it with screws or self-tapping screws. The sequence of work is as follows:

1. turn off the power
2. we clean the ends of the wires and attach them to the terminals of the ceiling - when twisting, the wires are clamped.
3. after we fix the base of the ceiling and screw the lamp
4. we check the connection and mount the decorative cap of the ceiling.

If you have spotlights, then study the video material, and you can easily mount this type of light in your bathroom or toilet.

This kind of bathroom and toilet lighting is very popular, versatile and safe.

LEDs in the bathroom: installation of LED strip, photo ideas

LED ceiling lights for the bathroom and toilet are the most economical. They almost do not heat up, but because of their positive qualities have a fairly high cost. However, they are in demand because their effectiveness justifies the costs. Shops offer a truly huge selection of ceiling LEDs.

Bathroom LED Lights

Not only decorative lighting, but also local lighting of mirrors, washbasins, showers, wardrobes can become LED Strip Light. Its installation is not complicated and anyone can master it.

Halogen lamps

This type of lamp has undeniable advantages: they are not afraid of moisture, they are very compact with an effective glow and consume little electricity. However, it is not always easy to use them. Often there are products that operate exclusively at 12 volts. Therefore, installing them in the bathroom will require the installation of a special transformer. Above, we have already cited the use of this device as an example. But this is an expensive pleasure. We do not recommend saving, as cheap transformers are very noisy and quickly fail.

Halogen lamps

Zoning the light of the bathroom

Of course, the ideal option is a spacious bathroom with big window outside. Such a bathroom will give its owners the least worries in choosing lighting. Artificial light in such a room is also necessary, but it is designed only for the dark time of the day. Basically, you can limit yourself ceiling lights and illumination of work areas.

Bathroom with natural light from the window and illuminated work areas

Bathrooms with a window are not common, unfortunately, in standard houses we have to be content with very cramped rooms. They require high-quality and bright lighting. But whatever bathroom you get, it needs a variety of lighting products in terms of brightness and design.
