Led Tubes for Bathrooms

LED tubes for bathrooms are the simplest way to get powerful, even, moisture-resistant light in one of the most demanding rooms in the house. At GreenIce we offer tubes and waterproof fittings designed to replace old fluorescent lights with far lower consumption and without the typical flicker at start-up.

Types of LED tubes you can use in the bathroom

  • Waterproof fittings with integrated LED tube: IP65 fixtures in 60, 120 and 150 cm (9 W, 18 W and 23 W) in warm 2700K or cool 6000K light. They are the safest option near the shower, because the whole unit is sealed against steam.
  • Linkable CCT waterproof fittings: models from 20 to 60 W with color temperature adjustable between 3000K and 6500K.
  • Glass T8 LED tubes: in 60, 120 and 150 cm (9 W, 18 W and 22 W) with single-ended connection, to upgrade existing fluorescent fixtures.
  • 2G11 LED tubes: compact 9 to 22 W format that replaces the PL fluorescent lamps found in many bathroom ceiling and wall lights.

Where to place LED tubes in the bathroom

In a bathroom, it's best to combine general ceiling light with task lighting next to the mirror. A waterproof fitting on the ceiling spreads light evenly and avoids dark areas in the shower; a 60 cm tube above the sink provides comfortable frontal lighting for shaving or doing your makeup. If you want something more decorative for that area, complement it with our LED bathroom mirrors.

In changing rooms or large bathrooms, 120 or 150 cm waterproof fittings light a large area with just a few light points. More ideas in bathroom lighting.

How to choose LED tubes for the bathroom

IP rating

The bathroom is a damp space: near the shower or bathtub, always choose IP65 fittings, protected against water jets and steam. IP20 tubes should only be installed inside closed fixtures away from splash zones.

Color temperature

Neutral light (around 4000K) or adjustable light is the most practical in front of the mirror. Warm 2700K light creates a more relaxing atmosphere, while cool 6000K light suits heavily used restrooms.

Length and wattage

Measure the fixture or available space: 60 cm is usually enough for small bathrooms or above the sink; 120 and 150 cm for the ceilings of larger bathrooms. The longer the tube, the more lumens: the 18 W tubes in our catalog reach around 1800 lumens.

Installation

If you are replacing a fluorescent tube, single-ended tubes require bypassing the ballast; with a complete waterproof fitting you skip this step. See the full range in LED tubes and LED waterproof fittings.

At GreenIce you get fast shipping, a 3-year warranty on GreenIce products and a technical support team to help you choose the right fixture for your bathroom.
