Lighting & Electrical

Light switch located near the entrance to the bathroom.

Consider replacing the existing switch with a "glow switch" that can be seen in the dark.

Is there adequate lighting in the right place(s) for your bathroom activities (shaving, make-up application, reading)?

Are all the electrical outlets protected with Ground Fault Circuit lnterrupters to prevent electric shock?
