Lamps in the bathroom

One of the more specific locations in each home is the bathroom. In this article we will examine the requirements for lighting fixtures for bathroom and how to define themselves what, where and how we can use. In this room are combined mandatory sanitary accessories, and the possibility of adding his own style and uniqueness, and why not – even luxury. It is good, the colors in the bathroom which is equipped to continue their line and decorative coating of the lamp. The most commonly used coatings are chrome and stainless steel / Satie, because their natural protection from corrosion, but are not exclusive and plated or brass items. Advantage of the chrome mirror elements shine when it’s intended effect. In combination with the crystal sense of refined luxury is quite achievable. In the glass elements are used opal / white or frosted glass, and sometimes a combination of both. When lighting is built into a mirror – so-called illuminated mirrors – is necessary to provide outlets for powering the lights behind the mirror itself. Improvisation are fully resolved as long as they comply with certain basic safety requirements. Their choice of lighting in bathroom is their protection from water, condensation and any other intrusion into the body where the lamps themselves and conductive parts. For convenience of consumers and producers of lighting standard is established whereby each lamp is marked with two IP numbers – or so-called class of protection.
Check the table with the names of the indexes and their explanation. To avoid tiring consumers with unnecessary technical details, using a hypothetical scheme of a room – bathroom. That sketch is divided into zones, according to the locations of lighting fixtures and protect them from direct contact with water. Depicted are the recommended dimensions of the zones designated by numbers 1, 2 and 3. As can be seen – the highest requirement for zone 1, due to proximity to running water and the danger of direct contact with the lamps. Requiring a minimum standard IP65. In zone 2 the minimum of protection IP44, are most lighting fixtures for bathroom and wet rooms. In zone 3, the requirements are minimal, IP20, this is the area above or beside the mirror where it is located over the sink and there is no danger of spraying water on the lights. Given these conditions for deployment of lighting fixtures in the bathroom and their protection can create an individual style to any bathroom lighting. In recent years the popularity has gained another option for solving the lighting in the bathroom – through the suspended ceiling and spot lighting incorporation or so-called “freckles”. Despite the fact that such lighting can be built through the lamps on mains voltage 220V, it is strongly recommended to choose a variant of a 12V transformer to avoid any possibility of electric shock defeat. Investment except in security will be in the reliability and long service life due to adjusting factors of tension, which will be delivered by the transformer. The prices of these devices are almost symbolic. Halogen bulbs have a power of 20W to 50W and lighting powerful enough, as the sum of their power must be equal to or less than that of the selected transformer. The exhibition center offers SIRIUS is a large selection of moon crystals and those with protection IP44. One disadvantage is that because of the suspended ceiling will have to lower the height of the room by 6.8 cm on the other hand, can realize a general illumination even with a very modern and entering anywhere – LED / LED /.

How to make home waterfall

Our first advice is, if possible, to visit a real waterfall, or at least to trace the images of real waterfalls. You must have a realistic picture of how water flowing over rocks. The design of your waterfall depends on the topographical features of the place you chose the type of pump and the length of the tube, you will use the distance from which water falls and the shape of the pond. It is good to maintain the proportions of the entire facility. Often make mistakes, to be transported large quantities of earth to build one fountain, tall, more than a meter. The effect is that it gets so dramatic appearance that more resembles a volcano that is not in place. Waterfall, about 60 cm high, would cause a very satisfactory effect both visually and audible. If your home waterfall building at the level of the building, with a normal size swimming pool, the amount of dust, you need to filter and cluster around the ridge to build the fountain is just as much and the dust that had to dig a pond, which is quite convenient. If you later decide to enlarge the waterfall, you could add more soil or aggregating large blocks stone and other natural-looking elements. If you are working on sloping terrain, you can place the filter over the pond and thereby create a true cascade of tiny waterfalls. For better visual effect, you could reduce the amount of water so it will run though more slowly, but waterfall will be broader.
And if you build a waterfall a few steps from the pond, you will create the impression of a faster flow of water. It is advisable to use a rubber mat in the pond, which can be supplied just over its edge to return to water splashing back. Once you have finished digging for rocks, and once you are sure that the terrain is flat, arrange the stones on each other. Do not hurry, try different combinations, and observed how water runs down on them. When you think The Fountain is finally built, use the black foam to form the relief, so that water runs down on the stones, rather than under them.
Although the construction of a fountain requires a lot of imagination and patience, this occupation provides pleasure. If you take some time to experiment, you could get a better effect on the outcome. So do it! Soon your home will appreciate at a waterfall for relaxing and peaceful place in your garden.
