Is this fixture weatherproof?

I believe it is weather resistant, the directions advise applying calk around the mount. I only used the included foam-rubber pad between the house and unit as I live in AZ and am not expecting a great deal of moisture. So far very pleased with it.

So far there have been no problems with the weather, but mine is under the soffit.

Yes, it has functioned outside in the elements without issue for over a year.
1687278
Yes. I have two installed at my office under the soffit. Be prepared for a very white LED light.

yes, the fixture is designed for outdoor installation. I installed mine in December and its works great. I would have liked to have a motion sensor on it along with the photo cell.

I don't think it is safe to use outdoors unless you live in a very dry climate and it will be protected from the weather (mostly rain or wet stuff). It is designed as an INDOOR ceiling light with fan. When I assembled the unit, I noted that it is not air (or moisture) tight, and definitely not a sealed unit in any sense of the word. I would not recommend using it outdoors except under very protected conditions (like maybe on a porch where there is no chance of moisture getting on it). Also if you have any winds, I wouldn't even consider it. I hope this helps!

I don't know if these are weather proof. I have mine inside my garage but I do know they sell outdoor boxes to mount timers in.

I have the light mounted to the house just under the soffit. It is slightly protected from weather (not fully exposed). I know rain and snow have contacted it with no problem.

I would say no it is not weatherproof. The material will hold moisture and direct sun light will make it fade. Since the pole is raw wood, in high humidity it may bend over time.

Can this be used outdoors in a mostly enclosed (bottom is slightly open) post fixture?

Mine is being used indoors only, and from what i could see during the installation, this is not exactly weather proof. Mine works well, but it is indoors.

I don' know if they are intended for outdoor use. However, I live near a beach and almost everything reacts to the humid and ocean spray conditions. After about 2 years these fixtures have held up very well.

I don't have any experience with these lights in outdoors fixtures, but they look pretty well sealed and I wouldn't expect a problem in an enclosed fixture.

I have mine outside, they are not a water tight fixture but they are well protected from the elements. I have not had any problems, they have been up for about 3 months. So far so good!!

I purchased this light fixture and mine is mounted outside in my entry way. Works nicely! I would not mount it somewhere that it could get wet.

As long as that your lighting fixture is water proof and the bulb is away from rain or water, then it should be fine. However, completely shielded lighting fixture might shorten the lifespan of a led bulb.

All I can tell you is that in an enclosed outdoor fixture, this bulb works very well. It would be unusual for a bulb to work through the rain in an un-enclosed fixture. Hope this helps!

Sorry, the fixture is mounted in my 2nd home and I won't be there until mid-May, again. I can save your inquiry and get back to you.

It's just a guess, but if the fixture in which it is mounted protects it from direct contact with the elements, I would say it is plausible for use out doors.

No. Its not weather resistant. Plus its so quiet its not worth the purchase..

Any light fixture to be used in the shower has to be wet location rated. I don't believe these fixtures are.
