Overview

The KOV wall light by FARO is a wall lamp designed for outdoor use. It works well at house entrances, facades, covered terraces, or any outdoor area where clean, controlled lighting is needed. Its square format and white finish blend effortlessly into spaces with simple, orderly lines.

What sets this wall light apart is the ability to direct the light at two different angles: 34° or 14°. This allows the beam spread to be adjusted according to need, whether to wash a wide surface or concentrate the light on a more precise point. The light source is recessed, which reduces direct glare and makes the visual experience more comfortable.

FARO is a Spanish brand with decades of experience in designing luminaires for outdoor and indoor use. Its catalogue combines technical criteria with a functional aesthetic, designed for both residential and larger-scale projects.

Installation and specifications

For installation, a suitable in-wall back box matching the size of the wall light is required. Since this is an outdoor lamp, the wiring must be protected against moisture and comply with current electrical regulations. It is recommended that installation be carried out by a qualified electrician. Before mounting the wall light, ensure the wall surface is level and clean.

For maintenance, simply clean the housing with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid the use of abrasive products or solvents that could damage the aluminium finish. Do not handle the lamp while the installation is connected to the power supply.

Design and use

The KOV wall light by FARO is made from aluminium, a material that combines lightness with resistance to outdoor conditions. The white finish gives it a neutral appearance that integrates well with both light-coloured walls and darker-toned facades. It does not impose a specific style, making it a valid option for different types of architecture: from recently built homes with straight lines to renovations of more classical buildings.

The lamp features COB LED technology, which concentrates several diodes in a small area to deliver a uniform and stable light output. The colour temperature of 3000K produces a warm white light, closer to the tone of traditional incandescent bulbs than to cool white. This is pleasant in spaces where people spend time, such as a terrace or the entrance to a home, and does not create the cold feeling that more technical outdoor lights sometimes produce.

One of the most practical features of this wall light is its integrated drainage system. In outdoor installations, water can accumulate if the design does not account for it. KOV incorporates a solution to prevent this pooling, which helps extend the product's service life without requiring any intervention from the user.

The ability to choose between two beam angles, 34° and 14°, provides flexibility to adapt the installation to its surroundings. A 34° beam is suitable when the goal is to illuminate a wide surface, such as the side of a facade or a garden wall. The 14° angle works better when the aim is to concentrate the light on a specific point, such as a house number, a decorative element, or a door lock. The light source is recessed into the body of the wall light, so it is not directly visible or exposed to the impact of rain.

The format is compact: 212 mm high, 80 mm wide and 87 mm deep. This makes it suitable for spaces with little lateral clearance, such as narrow outdoor corridors or areas where several luminaires are installed in a row. Its weight of 1.23 kg presents no problem for standard wall mounting.

In terms of integration into the environment, the KOV wall light works well alongside other outdoor lighting elements: garden bollards, in-ground projectors, or post luminaires. It does not need to be the sole light source to fulfil its function, but it can also be used as the main fixture if the space is small. On terraces, its low profile and warm light help create a pleasant atmosphere without visually overloading the wall. On facades, it adds presence without being excessive.

Questions and answers

Does the KOV wall light allow the light source to be installed facing both upward and downward?

Yes. The wall light's design allows it to be mounted so that the light is directed upward or downward, depending on the installation requirements. This provides flexibility to adapt the lighting effect to each specific situation.

What is the practical difference between the 34° and 14° beam angles available in this model?

The 34° angle distributes the light over a wider surface, which is useful for illuminating walkways or walls of a certain size. The 14° angle concentrates the beam over a smaller area, suitable for highlighting a specific element or illuminating with greater precision.

Is the COB LED lamp included with the wall light or does it need to be purchased separately?

The COB LED light source is included with the wall light. It does not need to be purchased separately, nor is any additional action required before installation.
