Overview

The KOV wall light by FARO is a wall lamp designed for outdoor use. Intended for installation on facades, entrances, terraces, and passageways, it combines a clean square shape with a very specific function: providing direct illumination without exposing the light source to view.

The white aluminium body holds up well against outdoor conditions. The integrated COB LED light offers a colour temperature of 3000K, close to warm light, which is comfortable for spaces where people spend time or receive guests. The wall light can be mounted vertically or horizontally, and can also be oriented upward or downward depending on how the light is to be distributed across the wall.

FARO is a Spanish brand with an extensive track record in technical and decorative lighting. Their outdoor products are designed to last and to integrate into different types of environments without losing functionality.

Installation and specifications

For installation, it is recommended to fix the wall light directly onto the wall using anchors appropriate for the surface type: brick, concrete, or exterior cladding. As this is an outdoor lamp, the electrical connection must be carried out by a professional, in compliance with current regulations for facade installations. Before mounting, it is advisable to verify that the installation area is free of accumulated moisture and that the cables are properly protected.

For maintenance of the wall light, simply clean the surface with a slightly damp cloth when necessary. Abrasive products or solvents should not be used on the white finish. It is recommended to periodically check the fixing points to ensure they remain in good condition, especially after periods of heavy rain or strong wind.

Design and use

The KOV wall light has a compact profile that does not take up too much space on the wall. At 212 mm high, 80 mm long, and 87 mm deep, it fits well in both narrow entrances and wide garden or terrace walls. The weight of 1.23 kg makes fixing straightforward and does not require any special support.

The body is made of aluminium, a material that withstands temperature changes and prolonged sun exposure without deforming or losing its finish. The white colour provides a neutral appearance that adapts to different types of facade, from modern cladding to more traditional whitewashed walls.

The COB LED light source is recessed inside the body, which prevents direct glare. The 3000K colour temperature produces a warm light that is not harsh on the eyes and promotes a calm atmosphere in resting or access areas. This wall light does not include a motion sensor or integrated detector, but it can be combined with external control systems if that functionality is desired.

The lamp offers unidirectional or bidirectional illumination depending on how it is mounted. Installed facing upward, it projects light onto the wall creating an interesting visual effect. Oriented downward, it illuminates the floor or access area in a more functional way. This freedom of choice means the same wall light serves different needs without having to change the model.

The technical design includes a drainage system that prevents water from accumulating inside the body. This detail is relevant in areas with frequent rainfall, where water could become trapped and affect the internal components over time. It is not a visible element, but it makes a difference in terms of durability.

The wall light fits well at garage entrances, home access points, garden walls, or the sides of terraces. It can also be installed in covered areas such as porches or pergolas. On facades with several light points, repeating the same model at regular intervals creates a coherent visual line. The white finish facilitates this integration because it does not compete with other decorative elements.

The ability to mount the lamp vertically or horizontally expands the options depending on the orientation of the wall or the effect desired. On a long vertical wall, the horizontal orientation of the wall light can give a more balanced result. On columns or pillars, vertical placement looks more proportionate.

As it operates on the standard 220V-240V mains supply, no transformers or special adaptations are required. The light source is included, so the wall light is ready to install from the outset.

Questions and answers

Can the KOV wall light be mounted in both vertical and horizontal positions on the wall?

Yes. The design of the wall light allows it to be installed in both orientations without affecting the performance or appearance of the product. The choice depends on the type of wall and the lighting effect desired.

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

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

Does the internal drainage system also work in horizontal installations?

The drainage system is designed to prevent water from pooling regardless of the mounting position. It is a design element integrated into the body of the wall light that works in both orientations.
