A balcony wall, a wall next to a patio door, or a pergola post is more suitable than an inaccessible upper wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGeneral installation rule: keep it between 1.50 and 1.80 m above the ground so the foliage remains within easy reach. Also consider how watering may cause water to run down the wall below.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterial, finish and maintenance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe metal body provides structural support, while the acrylic shade diffuses the light. Acrylic is sensitive to solvents and abrasive sponges, which can leave a permanent cloudy film. Wash it with warm soapy water, and empty the receptacle before a thorough cleaning to avoid staining the black finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBulb and installation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe light source is an SMD LED supplied with the fixture; no separate bulb is required. Assembly is required before fixing it in place. If you choose the wired version, the electrical supply must be protected and connected by an electrician, in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. The solar version eliminates this requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat plant should I put in the body of the wall light?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer does not specify a maximum volume or weight for the receptacle. When in doubt, choose a lightweight plant that does not require much soil, such as a succulent or trailing ivy, rather than a heavy plant. An independent plant pot placed inside the cavity makes it easier to remove for cleaning or repotting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes watering pose a risk to the electrical components?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wall light has an IP65 rating, so it is designed for rain and water splashes. Controlled watering should therefore not pose any particular problem. Simply avoid flooding the cavity: standing water will eventually leave limescale marks on the metal and may run down the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the model suitable for a pergola or open shelter?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, provided the support can accommodate secure fixings, as the receptacle adds weight when filled. A wooden pergola post or metal post is suitable. With the solar version, make sure the panel is not placed under a solid cover that would deprive it of light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs warm light suitable for a garden?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is specified as warm light, with a hue similar to that of a filament bulb. Outdoors, this tone complements wood, stone, and foliage, and is less noticeable than cool white. However, a more neutral hue would be preferable for highly visible security lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFor more options\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse the facade lights in \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/applique-murale\"\u003eour wall light catalogue\u003c\/a\u003e.
