Did you do anything different for the cove section above the bathtub? Any issue with moisture affecting the led's?

Hello and excellent question. When selecting LED lighting for your shower/tub area, it is important to specify a wet-location rated LED fixture. We specified Luminii’ s LineLED Wet strip Fixture (LL20WET) in the shower cove due to the high-moisture (steam) potential. The paint inside this cove is a Benjamin Moore’s spa and bath paint on cement board. We hope this helps, and good luck with your project!
