We will have a 3-in-1 (light, fan, heater) in our bathrooms. I am now thinking of also adding downlights. Do you think this would be too much?
For those who have downlights in their bathrooms, do you also have a 3-in-1? If not, what do you have?
Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Downlights in bathrooms 14Aug 07, 2010 1:32 pm pleasedontgo seast We have a 3 in 1 light and 2 downlights. We also have a nice fluro type light above the mirror for doing makeup . Really glad we have them all, especially the fluro as it turns out that the light component of the 3 in 1 is cr@p. Pretty much useless. OK if you want a dull glow for midnight trips to the loo but otherwise useless, and the light for the heat is great but too hot if you aren't just out of the shower. Depends on how good the light part of your 3 in 1 is but we are disappointed in ours. It's not the name brand version though..maybe they are better. I love the sound of your bathroom seast! Would you mind showing us a photo? Hope these help. Difficult to get a shot of everything as it is quite a large ensuite. This is the room at night with everything except the heatlight on.

As our shower is recessed we were supposed to have one in the recessed area and bought what we thought was a waterproof one. As it turns out it wasn't so the other downlight is just outside the shower but as it is a gimble one, it points into the shower area.

Would have been VERY unhappy if this was all we had put in. The main bathroom, which is slightly smaller, has a 4 in 1 and a similar type fluro above the mirror. It doesn't have any downlights.
