WAC Lighting WAC-WS-69826 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the WAC Esprit WS-69826 vanity light be mounted vertically beside a mirror, or only horizontally above it?
Both. The 26 inch Esprit WS-69826 is built to mount either vertically or horizontally on the wall, so you can run it across the top of a mirror or flank the mirror in pairs. The backplate is 4.5 inches and the fixture body is 4.5 inches on its short dimension, 26 inches long.
2) Will the WS-69826 Esprit vanity light work on 277V in a commercial building?
Yes. The driver is universal voltage, rated 120-240-277V, so the same fixture works on residential 120V and on 277V commercial lighting circuits. The driver module measures 2.76 x 1.26 x 1.18 inches and installs inside the junction box, so no external driver enclosure is needed.
3) What dimmer do I need for the WAC Esprit LED vanity light?
Use an electronic low voltage (ELV) dimmer or a 0-10V control. Those are the two dimming protocols this fixture supports. A standard incandescent/TRIAC forward-phase dimmer is not the right control here, so if you are replacing an old incandescent vanity bar, plan on swapping the wall control at the same time.
4) Can the WS-69826 be installed over a shower or tub, or in a covered outdoor entry?
It carries a Damp location rating with an IP44 rating, which covers a bathroom including near a tub and covered exterior locations such as a porch ceiling or recessed entry. It is not rated for wet locations, so do not put it inside a shower enclosure or anywhere exposed to direct rain.
5) Does the Esprit WS-69826 meet ADA requirements for a hotel or multi-family bathroom?
Yes, it is listed as ADA compliant, which matters for hotel guest baths, healthcare, and accessible units where wall-mounted fixtures in a circulation path have projection limits. It is also ETL and cETL listed for US and Canadian installs.
6) Does the WAC Esprit WS-69826 qualify for California Title 24?
It is Title 20 compliant but not Title 24 compliant. If you are on a California permitted job where the bathroom fixture has to count as high-efficacy under Title 24, this one will not satisfy that line item and you'll need a JA8-listed alternative. For projects outside California, or where the fixture is on a controlled circuit that meets the requirement another way, Title 20 registration is the relevant hurdle and it clears that.
7) How bright is the 26 inch WAC Esprit vanity light and what color is the light?
1784 lumens at 20 watts, in a 3000K warm white. That is enough for a single-sink or double-sink vanity used as the primary face-lighting source, and 3000K is the tone most often specified for residential and hospitality baths. LED modules sit close to the etched acrylic diffuser, which spreads the output rather than pooling it.
8) Do I need to buy bulbs for the WAC WS-69826, and can the LED be replaced later?
No bulbs to buy. The LED is integrated into the fixture and included, rated for an average 50,000 hours. There is no lamp socket, so there is nothing to relamp; at end of life the fixture is replaced rather than re-bulbed. For MRO planning, 50,000 hours is why these get spec'd in hotels and offices where changing lamps means a ladder and a room out of service.
9) Is the WS-69826 hardwired, and does it need a special junction box?
Hardwired, and it mounts to a standard wall junction box. The universal voltage driver is compact enough (2.76 x 1.26 x 1.18 inches) to sit inside the box, so you are not hunting for a remote driver location above the ceiling or inside the wall cavity. A 4.5 inch backplate covers the box.
10) What is the WAC Esprit vanity light actually made of, and will it hold up in a high-traffic hotel bathroom?
Solid aluminum body with an etched white acrylic diffuser. Aluminum handles the humidity of a bath better than a plated pot-metal housing, and the acrylic diffuser won't shatter the way a glass shade will if a housekeeping cart clips it. The IP44 rating backs up the splash resistance.
