IP Rated Lights & Outdoor Ceiling Fans

Explore our range of IP rated lighting and outdoor ceiling fans — built to withstand moisture, dust and the harsh Australian outdoors. Whether you're lighting a bathroom, garden, patio or alfresco area, choosing the right IP rating ensures safety, durability and peace of mind. The IP (Ingress Protection) code has two digits: the first rates protection against solids, the second against water.

Popular IP-Rated Types

IP44 fittings suit covered and semi-exposed areas such as verandahs, while IP65 handles direct rain and hose-down cleaning — ideal for exposed walls and eaves. For pool surrounds and jetties, look for IP67 submersible-rated fittings. Browse outdoor wall lights, bollard lights and step lights for landscape and pathway use, plus outdoor ceiling lights for covered spaces. Weather-rated ceiling fans keep patios and coastal homes comfortable year-round.

Choosing the Right IP Rating

Match the rating to the zone: bathroom zones near a shower or bath call for at least IP44, while IP65 is the safe default for anything facing weather. In coastal, salt-air areas choose fittings and fans built with 316 marine-grade stainless steel to resist corrosion. For LED colour, 3000K warm white suits alfresco settings and 4000K cool white gives crisper task light.

Frequently Asked Questions

What IP rating do I need for a bathroom? IP44 is the minimum for splash zones, and IP65 is recommended directly above a shower or bath where water contact is likely.

Can any ceiling fan go outside? No — use only fans rated IP44 or higher for covered patios, and marine-grade or coastal-rated fans for exposed or salt-air locations.
