WAC Lighting WAC-WS-65118 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the WAC Museo WS-65118 vanity light be mounted vertically beside a mirror, or only horizontally above it?
Both. The Museo 18 inch LED vanity is a wall-mount fixture that can go horizontally above the mirror or vertically alongside it, and it throws light up and down from etched diffusers at the top and bottom. The backplate is 18 inches by 5 inches, so plan your stud or junction box location and mirror clearance around that footprint either way.
2) Will the Museo WS-65118 run on 277V commercial power, or is it 120V only?
It runs on either. The driver is universal voltage, 120V, 240V and 277V, and it sits inside the canopy so there is no remote driver to find a home for. That makes it usable in a 277V commercial corridor or restroom as well as a 120V residential bath, on the same part number.
3) What dimmer works with the WAC Museo LED vanity light? Will my standard incandescent dimmer work?
Use an electronic low voltage (ELV) or TRIAC dimmer. A TRIAC dimmer is the common forward-phase wall dimmer, so many existing dimmers will work, but a true incandescent-only rheostat style or a 0-10V control is not the right match. Pairing it with an ELV dimmer gives the smoothest low-end control on a 17W load.
4) Is the Museo WS-65118 rated for a shower area or an outdoor covered entry?
It is damp location rated with an IP44 rating, so it is fine in a bathroom outside the shower enclosure and under a covered exterior area such as a porch ceiling overhang. It is not a wet location fixture, so keep it out of direct spray and off uncovered exterior walls.
5) Does the WAC Museo vanity light meet California Title 24 and ADA requirements for a commercial restroom?
Yes on both counts. The Museo is listed ADA compliant and meets Title 24 as well as Title 20, and it carries ETL and cETL listings for US and Canadian jurisdictions. It is not an Energy Star listed fixture, which matters only if a rebate program specifically requires that.
6) How bright is the 18 inch Museo, and is one enough over a single vanity?
It puts out 1769 lumens at 17 watts in a warm 3000K with a flood distribution, lighting up and down rather than in a tight beam. That is a workable single-fixture solution over a standard single-sink vanity mirror. Over a wide double vanity, most designers run a pair of them or step up to the 28 inch Museo.
7) Can the LED be replaced in the WAC Museo WS-65118 when it burns out?
No. The LEDs are integrated behind the faux alabaster resin and etched diffusers, so there is no socket and no lamp to change. It is rated for 54,000 average hours, which is why WAC sells it as maintenance free. For an MRO spec where staff must relamp in the field, choose a socketed fixture instead.
8) Is the Museo alabaster shade real stone, and how does it hold up in a rental or high traffic restroom?
It is a faux alabaster acrylic resin, not quarried stone, so you get the stone look without the fragility or the weight of real alabaster. The body is aluminum. For property managers, that combination handles a turnover or a public corridor better than a glass shade that chips on the edges.
9) How far does the Museo WS-65118 stick out from the wall, and will it clear a medicine cabinet door?
The fixture measures 18 inches wide and 5 inches high, mounting to an 18 by 5 inch backplate. Check that height against the swing of a medicine cabinet door or the top of a framed mirror before you set the box location, since the light throws both up and down and needs open wall above it to do that.
10) Is the WAC WS-65118 hardwired, and does it come with the light source?
Hardwired to a standard wall junction box, no plug or cord, so it needs an electrician or a licensed trade in most commercial jobs. The integrated LED module ships with the fixture, so there is nothing else to buy for light output beyond a compatible ELV or TRIAC dimmer if you want it dimmed.
11) What finish and color temperature does the 18 inch Museo come in?
One configuration: White finish at 3000K, ordered as WS-65118-WT. There is no tunable or field-selectable CCT switch on it, so if a project calls for 2700K or 4000K across the building, this fixture will not match that spec.
