[ LEGAL / DISCLAIMER ]

READ THIS BEFORE YOU WIRE ANYTHING.

What our content is, what it is not, and where the limits are.

LAST UPDATED — AUGUST 10, 2026

1. INFORMATIONAL PURPOSE ONLY

All content published on wowwithlighting.com is provided for general informational and educational purposes only. It does not constitute professional, electrical, construction, legal, or financial advice, and it is not a substitute for consultation with a qualified professional who can assess your specific situation.

2. ELECTRICAL SAFETY — THE IMPORTANT ONE

WORKING WITH MAINS ELECTRICITY CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY, ELECTROCUTION, FIRE, PROPERTY DAMAGE, AND DEATH. IF YOU ARE NOT COMPETENT AND CONFIDENT, HIRE A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN.

Our installation, wiring, and DIY content describes general procedures written for a typical scenario. It cannot account for the specific conditions in your home. In particular it does not account for:

  • The age, condition, and configuration of your existing wiring, including undocumented or non-standard work by previous owners.
  • Your circuit capacity, breaker sizing, load calculations, and whether the circuit is already near capacity.
  • Grounding and bonding arrangements, and whether an existing junction box is rated for the weight or heat of a new fixture.
  • Local electrical codes, permit requirements, inspection requirements, and rules governing wet, damp, and outdoor locations, all of which vary by country, state, and municipality.
  • Whether the work you are attempting is legally permitted to be carried out by a non-licensed person where you live.

Always isolate power at the breaker and verify with a tester before touching any fixture, switch, or junction box. Where our guides state that a task requires a licensed electrician, treat that as instruction rather than suggestion. Any work you undertake is done entirely at your own risk, and Wow With Lighting accepts no liability for the outcome.

3. HOW OUR RECOMMENDATIONS ARE MADE

OUR CONTENT IS RESEARCH-BASED, NOT TESTING-BASED. We do not conduct hands-on laboratory testing, photometric measurement, or long-term durability trials, and we do not claim to have personally used every product we cover.

Our recommendations are built from three sources. Published manufacturer specifications, including lumen output, correlated colour temperature, colour rendering index, ingress protection rating, operating voltage, materials, and certifications. Published documentation, including installation manuals, wiring diagrams, safety listings, warranty terms, and dimmer compatibility charts. Verified owner reviews, read in volume and assessed for patterns that repeat across many buyers rather than for individual opinions.

Where a manufacturer does not publish a specification, we state that it is not published rather than estimating it. Any statement on this site that appears to describe hands-on testing should be reported to us at hello@wowwithlighting.com so we can correct it.

4. ACCURACY AND CURRENCY

We make reasonable efforts to ensure information is accurate at the time of publication. We make no representation or warranty that it is complete, current, or free of error. Manufacturers revise products without changing model names, specifications are updated without notice, listings are discontinued, and prices and availability change constantly.

Always verify critical specifications — particularly wet or damp location ratings, voltage, wattage limits, fitter and mounting dimensions, and dimmer compatibility — directly with the manufacturer or seller before you buy or install.

5. AFFILIATE DISCLAIMER

This website contains affiliate links. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. If you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you. Commission rates do not determine which products we recommend or how they are ranked. See our Affiliate Disclosure for the full statement.

6. NO GUARANTEE OF RESULTS

Lighting outcomes depend on variables we cannot see: ceiling height, room dimensions, wall and floor colour and reflectance, natural light, fixture placement, shade material, and personal preference. A fixture that suits one room may be wrong for another with identical dimensions. Nothing on this site guarantees a particular visual result, energy saving, or level of satisfaction.

7. EXTERNAL LINKS AND THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS

We link to third-party websites, retailers, and manufacturers. We do not control and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, pricing, availability, privacy practices, or products. We are an independent publisher. We do not manufacture, sell, ship, warrant, or service any product mentioned on this site. Warranty claims, returns, defects, and order problems must be taken up with the seller or manufacturer.

8. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Wow With Lighting and its owners and contributors accept no liability for any loss or damage, whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or otherwise, arising from your use of this website or your reliance on any information contained on it. This includes, without limitation, personal injury, electrical accident, fire, property damage, financial loss, and dissatisfaction with a purchased product.
