Hi, is this item rated for wet location?

Meaning an outdoor location? We use it on our back stoop, which is under a small roof and doesn't get wet.

I do not know. It is on my porch and I live in AZ. So in a very dry location.

I don't know. Mine is installed in the ceiling of my enclosed porch. I also own the wall mounted version and it is mounted outside in the weather. It was mounted last fall and has survived the winter. I have not had any problems with it.

Yes. It is rated for wet locations. I currently have this wrapped around a pipe and partially buried in dirt. Just the plug needs to be protected.

Its supposed to be. Haven't tested it on hard rain. Is at least water resistant.

Mine has not been soaked, but it has withstood rain just fine.But, if you have any doubt I would go ahead and treat it with a water protector.

Hello,Thank you for your inquiry. This item is not listed as water resistant by the manufacturer. Please let me know if you need any further assistance.

I don't think our environment is particularly wet, although maybe summer will be damp enough to cause some rust. Ours doesn't actually get water on it. It looks fine and holds the few towels we need, but it might rust if left out in a garage or used in a damp basement.

My has never really got wet. I have been caught in the rain.... with no damage to the contents of my backpack. However the marerial does seem like it would be at minimum resistant. Hope that helps.

Any indication that this fixture is suitable for wet locations would be a mistake. The unit is only for dry locations.

I don't think it would instantly get wet, but I wouldn't say it's overly waterproof..if that makes sense.

No it's not supposed to be for wet areas. The company told me it shouldn't even be outside, it will void warranty. I bring mine in if not in use but sometimes I forget:). I'm sure a few sprinkles have hit it and it seems ok.

Mine gets the surrounding area pretty wet if it's run in anything other than extreme high or extreme low. I put it on a towel.

Wet things will be fine, It has a cloth like filter that can be washed. but don't try to pick up liquids, that won't work.

I think it is good for wet weather. It is IP68 rated, which means it is completely sealed and can run while continuously submerged in water. I have had mine for 7 months, in Hawaii where it rains very often, and so far have not seen any rust or signs of trouble.

To be honest, in the description it does say weather resistant.......I would imagine that might include moisture to a lesser extent, but I wouldn't let it get to wet from splashing. I'm not an authority on this subject but it's usually prudent to keep it as dry as possible. I wish I could be more helpful.

Paula, yes it does the job. I have not had any problems with it getting wet when it rains. However, it does not cover the entire unit down to ground. The cover stops just above the legs. I hope that helps you.

I've never had it get wet, but I think it would be ok as long as you allowed it to dry before folding & storing it.
