Overview

The KOV wall light by FARO is a wall lamp designed for outdoor use. It works well at house entrances, façades, terraces, and passageways where directed and controlled lighting is needed. Its compact format takes up little visual space while doing its job effectively: directing light exactly where it is needed.

The light source is integrated and recessed within the body of the wall light, which prevents direct glare. Depending on how it is mounted, it can illuminate in one direction or two, and it can be installed in both vertical and horizontal positions. This provides flexibility to adapt it to different situations without changing the model.

What sets this wall light apart is its internal drainage system, which prevents water from accumulating inside. In areas exposed to sun, rain, or humidity, that detail makes a long-term difference. The 14° angle concentrates the light beam with precision, useful when you want to highlight a specific element or illuminate a path without dispersion.

FARO is a Spanish brand with a track record in both indoor and outdoor lighting. Their products combine careful design with technical solutions built to last.

Installation and specifications

To install this outdoor wall light, a recessed box or a suitable wall bracket is required for mounting. Before installation, make sure the electrical supply is disconnected. It is recommended that the connection be carried out by a qualified electrician, especially in installations exposed to the elements. Check that the existing wiring is compatible with the indicated voltage (220V-240V). The lamp can be mounted in a vertical or horizontal position, depending on the desired orientation of the light beam.

For maintenance, clean the surface of the wall light with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that could damage the white aluminium finish. Do not direct jets of water directly onto the luminaire during cleaning. The LED light source is included and does not require regular replacement, as its lifespan is extended.

Design and use

The KOV wall light has an aluminium body with a white finish. Aluminium is a common material in outdoor luminaires because it does not oxidise easily, withstands temperature changes well, and is lightweight. The white finish gives it a clean, neutral appearance that fits both modern façades and simpler walls.

The COB LED technology incorporated in this lamp concentrates several diodes in a small area, making it possible to obtain a precise beam with an angle of just 14°. This type of light is useful when you want to mark a path, illuminate a specific access area, or highlight an architectural element without the light dispersing. The 3000K colour temperature produces a warm tone, closer to candlelight than to the cold light of an office. Outdoors, that warmth creates a pleasant atmosphere without being intrusive.

The wall light can operate with unidirectional or bidirectional illumination. This means that, depending on how it is configured, the light can come out from one side only or from both. Combined with the possibility of mounting the lamp vertically or horizontally, the result is a fairly versatile piece for different installation needs. At an entrance, for example, it can be placed horizontally on either side of the door. In an outdoor corridor or along the sides of a terrace, the vertical position may work better to visually guide the path.

The integrated drainage system is one of the most practical aspects of this wall light. Outdoors, water can accumulate inside the housing if there is no planned outlet, and that causes problems over time: humidity, internal corrosion, electrical failures. The KOV design prevents that problem from the outset. It is a technical detail that is not visible, but which directly influences the durability of the product.

The size is compact: 108 mm high, 80 mm long and 87 mm deep. It does not protrude too much from the wall or draw excessive attention. This makes it suitable for spaces where effective lighting is sought without adding a very eye-catching decorative element. It works well in gardens that already have other luminaires and where a coherent visual line is desired, or on terraces where the available wall space is limited.

The integrated LED light source consumes only 6W, making it an efficient option to leave on for hours without high energy consumption. Although the wall light itself does not include a motion sensor or solar light sensor, it can be integrated without difficulty into installations that already have such control systems. If the installation has a detector or a timer, this wall light responds like any standard luminaire. For those who already have a motion sensor or solar control system in their garden or on their façade, KOV integrates without complications.

Questions and answers

Does this wall light allow the lamp to be mounted in both vertical and horizontal positions?

Yes. The KOV wall light is designed to be installed in both positions, allowing the direction of the light beam to be adapted to the needs of each installation.

Does the drainage system work in any mounting orientation?

The drainage system is integrated into the design of the aluminium body and performs its function in both vertical and horizontal mounting, preventing water from accumulating inside the wall light.

Is the COB LED light source included or does it need to be purchased separately?

The light source is included. The wall light arrives ready to install, with no need to purchase the bulb separately.
