I am mid way thorough a bathroom refurb, and now looking at electricians to wire it up and do a partial house rewire on the house.
so the question is do i get all the toys and ask him to fit or do i just get the basics installed and retro fit it later ?
any lighting ideas for bathrooms would be welcome pictures etc
Was looking at the smart switches glass , inside the bathroom, but outside Zone 2. but pull cord can be put back.
just signed up for webcore
so fit the dimmer in the lighting circuit and the relay in the fan circuit ?
i did look at those 6 in one sensors.
but its how many lights etc, mood and shaving if you get what i mean
don’t need a football stadium first thing and the wife when having a soak doesn’t either
ahh sensor above the bath area, then a little shelf for the echo. mmm thanks plans are forming
however in the uk i can’t get the plug within 600mm of a water source, but i have space
i have the old boiler cupboard with a lighting feed in it, or could run a USB plug in the loft and mount a usb socket somewhere. low voltage so should be fine i reckon.
If buying and burying a USB extension cable then buy a really high spec cable. Most of the ones on Amazon are crap and have tiny amounts of copper so only work for a short time before dying or charging too slow to be useable.
The Bluetooth volume control I mention in the other thread has USB power and that is what powers my Dot. It doesn’t stay powered when you turn off the volume control though, but no biggie.
we have recessed lighting behind the mirrors and below the floating cabinet on a motion sensor. So outlet receptacle placement is key. Also we have in ceiling speakers so wiring those before drywall was a breeze! The floor heater before floor is also important but the smart switch is easy retrofit. There are outlets in the big cabinets as well for charging. the vanity has 2 dedicated 20 amp for the blow dryer and curling iron lol.
Up north we did leds in the onyx and a tv behind the mirror it looks pretty cool from the shower.
