Flush fitting bathroom light fitting question

[ScottV]

I'm new to this forum and am not sure on etiquette about asking questions, so please excuse me if this isn't the way to do it...

I've recently fitted a flush fitting ceiling light in my bathroom. The light works fine but there is a 1mm gap around parts of the fitting between the top and the ceiling. I'm just wondering if this is a problem with steam getting in etc?

Can you help?

Many thanks

what's the IP rating of the fitting.? should say on the box.

 

[ScottV]

It's 44

 

[telectrix]

be fine then. IP44 is suitable for both zone 1 and zone 2 ( zone 1 being above bath/shower ).

 

[ScottV]

It's above the center of the bathroom, not above the bath/shower.

Thanks very much!
