Overview

The KOV wall light by FARO is a wall lamp designed for outdoor use. It is mounted directly on the wall and provides light both upward and downward, or in a single direction, depending on how it is positioned. It is an option designed for facades, entrances, terraces, and any outdoor space where clean, well-directed lighting is needed.

What sets this wall light apart is the combination of a compact geometric design with well-resolved technical functionality. The light source is recessed within the body, which prevents direct glare. The result is comfortable light for the eyes, without annoying bright spots. In addition, the integrated drainage system prevents water from accumulating inside, which is important when the lamp is exposed outdoors.

FARO is a Spanish brand with a long history in residential and outdoor lighting. Its products combine technical criteria with careful finishes, and are designed for durable installations.

Installation and specifications

Before installing the wall light, make sure the wall surface is level and free of moisture. The electrical connection must be carried out by a qualified electrician. The wall light supports vertical or horizontal mounting, so it is advisable to decide on the orientation before making the fixings. Check that the existing wiring is compatible with the indicated voltage of 220V-240V.

For maintenance, clean the surface with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that could damage the white aluminium finish. Since it is an outdoor lamp, periodically check that the drainage system is not blocked by dirt or plant debris.

Design and use

The KOV wall light has a square, compact profile that fits well on smooth surfaces. Its body is made of aluminium with a white finish, a material that withstands temperature variations and prolonged sun exposure well. It does not accumulate rust and maintains its appearance with little maintenance. The rectangular format of 212 mm in height and 80 mm in length allows it to integrate without taking up too much visual space on the facade.

One of the most useful features of this lamp is the ability to choose the light emission angle. It can be configured at 23º or 34º at each output point, allowing the beam aperture to be adjusted according to the surface to be illuminated. If installed in bidirectional mode, the light exits both upward and downward. If a more concentrated focus is preferred, it can be directed in a single direction. This flexibility makes it suitable both for highlighting a wall texture and for visually marking a path or an entrance.

The colour temperature of 3000K produces a warm light, similar to that of a gentle afternoon sun. This type of lighting is neither cold nor clinical, but rather adds warmth to the surroundings and makes natural materials such as stone, wood, or concrete look better. On a terrace or in a garden, that tone helps to create a pleasant atmosphere during the night-time hours.

The wall light operates with COB LED technology, which integrates several light points into a single chip. This configuration allows the light source to be kept inside the body of the wall light without protruding, ensuring good visual comfort. The power of 2x6W is sufficient to illuminate entrances, outdoor pathways, or facade areas without generating high energy consumption.

Regarding installation, the design allows it to be mounted in both vertical and horizontal positions. This provides flexibility to adapt it to different types of walls or compositions. It can accompany other luminaires from the same series to create a continuous line on a facade or next to a garden door. It also works well as a standalone element in a courtyard or at the entrance of a home.

The drainage system incorporated in this wall light solves a common problem in outdoor luminaires: water accumulation. When it rains heavily or there is condensation, moisture can become trapped if the lamp is not designed to drain water. In this case, the design anticipates that situation without requiring any intervention from the user.

Although it is a wall light designed primarily for outdoor use, its clean, unadorned aesthetic also fits in transitional spaces such as covered porches, garages, or semi-covered entrances. The white colour of the body makes it easy to integrate with light-coloured cladding, whitewashed facades, or modern concrete structures. It does not need to be the centre of visual attention; it works well as part of a whole.

For those renovating or equipping the exterior of a home, this wall light meets the need for functional lighting well, without a motion sensor, with angle control, and without installation complications.

Questions and answers

Is it possible to install the KOV wall light in a horizontal position instead of vertical?

Yes. This wall light is designed to be mounted in both vertical and horizontal positions. The choice depends on the orientation that best suits the wall and the lighting effect desired.

What is the difference between choosing the 23º angle and the 34º angle?

The 23º angle produces a narrower, more concentrated beam of light, useful for highlighting a specific point. The 34º angle offers a wider aperture, distributing the light over a larger surface. Each wall light allows a different angle to be configured at the upper and lower output.

Does the wall light include the light source or does it need to be purchased separately?

The COB LED light source is included. No additional components need to be purchased for the lighting.
