Is this the general consensus of the forum? If you were faced with locating
sidewall sprinklers in a bathroom wall, do you avoid the wall with the bar
type lights? Is this based on any code or past experience? I would
appreciate more opinions.

Subject: Re: Distance to light fixtures

I'd stay away from locating a sprinkler above the bar type bathroom lights.
They can put out quite a lot of heat, and we all know what goes up...
This sounds like a residential fixture, if so, the bulbs may be replaced
later with a higher wattage creating more heat.
