Welltherm infrared panel with an illuminated LED frame on a bathroom ceiling

A Welltherm infrared panel with LED lighting brings warmth and light to a shared position in your interior. Combine a suitable panel with a compatible lighting frame, the correct power supply and operation for desired functions. Heating requirements and lighting requirements remain separate choices. We help coordinate the combination with your room, mounting position and everyday usage.

Key points

The panel heats; the LED frame provides light and has its own technical data.
The catalogue describes warm-white 3000 K light and dimmable solutions.
Select the frame using confirmed panel compatibility and exact external dimensions.
Power supply, dimmer and operation are determined for the selected combination.
The LED frame has IP20; assess the complete assembly’s protection rating for its mounting position.

Designing warmth and light as two functions

In this Welltherm solution, the infrared panel is the heat source. Its warm surface emits radiant warmth to people and nearby surfaces. Heated surfaces subsequently transfer warmth to the room, also affecting the air. The LED frame adds lighting around a suitable panel combination. That frame does not change the room’s required heating capacity.

Therefore, start with two questions. Where do you want warmth, and what should the light do there? In a living room, a lighting frame may contribute to general lighting while another light source remains desirable for reading. In a study, the panel may support an occupied area while lighting on the work surface needs assessment. One attractive ceiling position does not automatically answer both questions.

A Welltherm infrared panel with light in your lighting plan

Draw the room with furniture, windows and doors. Add the desired panel position and existing lighting points. You can then see where a shared position is useful and where warmth and light impose different requirements. A cupboard can restrict heat transfer to a seat, while a fixture elsewhere may matter for targeted light. This relationship helps make product selection specific.

The frame also has its own external dimensions. The visible combination is therefore larger than the heating panel alone. Include the complete size when assessing room proportions. With ceiling mounting, consider lines of other fixtures and ceiling surfaces. Wall mounting may create a different impression, for example around a mirror panel.

A Welltherm infrared ceiling panel with light

A Welltherm infrared ceiling panel with light may be interesting when warmth and lighting are desired above the same occupied area. The ceiling leaves walls available for furniture and windows. However, its technical position must also suit height, the supporting structure and requirements for panel and frame. An existing light point prompts investigation rather than automatically confirming suitability.

For heating output, we consider the application and room heat loss. For light, we consider the desired function, distribution and intensity. Both sets of details are brought into the same design. This prevents choosing a panel solely by lamp shape or expecting a lighting frame to replace existing lighting without assessment.

Using light without the same heating requirement

There are times when you want light without extra warmth, and times when daylight is sufficient while heating remains desired. Discuss that usage when selecting power supply and operation. The catalogue describes wired and wireless options. Specific components determine how functions are operated in your installation. A combination with lighting does not automatically mean one shared switching action.

Comparing LED frames and exact dimensions

Our catalogue describes a modular LED frame for compatible metal and glass combinations. It is used with retainers designed for the purpose. Available sets have their own external dimensions, luminous flux and electrical output. Use these details alongside panel data to clarify the complete assembly. A nominal panel-size name alone is insufficient to confirm every model combination.

Light colour is described as warm white, 3000 K. The frame has an aluminium-coloured RAL 9006 finish and protection rating IP20. These properties belong to the lighting accessory, not a general description of the heating panel. If expecting another colour or function, have the possibilities of the actual offered version checked.

The catalogue sets

The following details help compare dimensions and lighting. Nominal panel size is the catalogue designation for which the set is described. Compatibility with the specific panel code and mounting method is confirmed separately before selecting the combination.

LED frame	Nominal panel size	External frame dimensions	Luminous flux	Lighting output
LI060060	60 × 60 cm	61 × 61 cm	4150 lm	53 W
LI090060	60 × 90 cm	61 × 91 cm	5150 lm	66 W
LI120060	60 × 120 cm	61 × 121 cm	6150 lm	80 W
LI150060	60 × 150 cm	61 × 151 cm	7200 lm	93 W
LI120090	90 × 120 cm	91 × 121 cm	7200 lm	96 W

The listed lighting outputs count in the electrical configuration. They differ from the panel’s heating output. Luminous flux also describes the frame and does not completely calculate illumination at every room position. Positioning, the room and chosen lighting function remain part of assessment.

Nominal size and actual panel dimensions

A metal panel generally described around 60 × 120 cm may actually measure 59.2 × 119.2 cm. Other ranges may have different dimensions. Therefore, specify panel and frame codes together. A similar product name or size description alone provides insufficient information about fixing and compatibility.

Measure the complete combination when a recess, wall strip or ceiling surface offers limited space. A 61 × 121 cm frame needs a different visible area from the panel alone. Also include mounting requirements and required clearances from manuals. The product image is then translated into its actual position in your room.

Warm-white light and dimming

Warm-white 3000 K light may suit a living space or another application requiring that light colour. Assess its combination with existing lamps; different light colours together may create another impression. Use actual product data for this choice. Catalogue details do not promise adjustable colour temperature or coloured light generally.

Dimmable options require suitable power supply and operation. State whether you mainly want bright general light or also a lower light setting. The selected dimmer and other components determine implementation. Find more information under Welltherm LED frames for infrared panels.

Positioning for living, working and mirror use

Welltherm infrared panels with LED lighting are selected as a coordinated combination for a specific room. View the room from places where you spend time. Where is the dining table, where do you sit on the sofa and which direction do you face while working? A suitable position brings the lighting appearance and heating function together without overlooking model instructions.

Also consider changes already known. A future cupboard, different table position or lowered ceiling can influence the plan. A fixed ceiling or wall installation stays in its chosen position when furniture moves. Include such plans in the initial enquiry. The combination is then designed for the furnishings you actually intend to use.

Welltherm infrared wall panels with LED lighting

For Welltherm infrared wall panels with LED lighting, assess the wall’s appearance from everyday viewing positions. Mark both panel and frame with their complete external dimensions on the wall. View that shape from the chair, sofa and doorway. This reveals whether the lit surface creates a discreet accent or attracts too much attention beside other lamps.

Then state the lighting role you seek: contributing to general illumination, a visible wall accent or supplementary light at a particular position. Our catalogue frame provides warm-white 3000 K light. The desired role helps discuss positioning and operation, while a separate reading lamp or task light can retain its own function.

Welltherm infrared mirror with lighting

For a Welltherm infrared mirror with lighting, also consider the viewing direction towards the mirror surface. Check where existing lamps and windows appear in the mirror and whether a neighbouring cupboard restricts the combination. Send an overview photograph and available wall dimensions, including frame space, with your enquiry.

Include mirror code, frame code and desired lighting operation together in the proposal. The LED frame has IP20; a different mirror protection rating does not automatically make the combination suitable for every bathroom position. Have the complete design assessed for the specific location. Lighting usage and temperature controls are each selected for their own function.

Living room and dining area

Above a dining area, a suitable combination can be incorporated discreetly into the ceiling. Consider how the frame relates to the table and other light sources. Lighting elsewhere in the room may retain a different role. For heating, assess the occupied area and capacity required for the selected objective.

A panel above the table does not, merely through that position, provide complete heating for every living-room seat. Several areas and large furniture may require different distribution. Therefore, clarify whether the panel adds warmth or must heat the entire room. For primary heating, total output is checked against heat loss. A lighting frame does not change that required assessment.

Study and desk

In a study, lighting can match daily tasks while the heat source supports the occupied workstation. Consider screens and reflections too. A frame appearing discreet from one angle may look different on a screen. Describe desk positioning and your view while working so the location is not selected solely from a product photograph.

For heating, an enclosed desk front or tall cupboard may influence useful warmth. Panel positioning and lighting design are therefore considered together but remain different technical questions. If the workstation is used only on certain days, heating controls may need a different programme from lighting. Discuss desired operation before selecting components.

A mirror with a lighting frame

A compatible LED frame can add light to a suitable mirror version and visually outline its surface. Mirror positioning first follows everyday use. Then assess panel capacity, frame compatibility and connections. A large mirror surface and powerful lighting frame do not replace an output calculation when heating the complete room.

Also view light from where you stand before the mirror. Other fixtures, windows and room layout influence the reflection. Explore the relevant product range through our mirror heating. The combination is ultimately established for each mirror product and mounting position.

Extra attention in a bathroom

The LED frame’s protection rating is IP20. A panel may have a different rating. Therefore, assess the complete assembly for the specific bathroom position, including electrical connections and operation. A heating panel suitable at a particular location does not automatically make an added accessory suitable there too.

Have a qualified professional check positioning relative to water and product requirements. An interior photograph inspires shape and appearance but does not replace assessment of your installation. Provide shower, bath and washbasin positions in your enquiry. Suitability of the desired combination at that location can then be established.

Choosing power supply, mounting and operation

Panel, lighting frame and control components together form an electrical configuration. The catalogue describes a fixed lighting connection and a wireless lighting solution. With the fixed version, lighting and heating provisions are arranged appropriately. The wireless version needs other components to operate lighting. Suitability is determined for the specific project.

Use existing wiring only after electrical installation and load assessment. A nearby lighting point is not automatically a suitable heating connection. The LED frame’s power supply must also suit the frame and selected operation. The complete proposal therefore specifies required connection and control components alongside panel and frame.

The fixed lighting solution

The lighting frame is attached around the compatible panel using prescribed magnets and operates at 24 V direct current through the selected power supply. Transformer and dimmer occupy the positions specified in the lighting-frame manual, outside its indicated warm zone. Have a competent installer make electrical connections. The integrated light source is not separately replaceable; include this when selecting the combination for renovation.

The catalogue lists LI00300 as a dimmable transformer for the fixed lighting solution. Lighting connections and operation use suitable components. Indicate whether an existing light switch is included in the plan and how you want to use the functions. The installing party checks the existing provision and compatible combination.

The heating section also receives its own suitable temperature controls. A light switch does not measure room temperature. Panel controls are therefore aligned with heating requirements. A shared product position may make functions straightforward, but electrical and functional choices remain clear for each component.

The wireless lighting solution

For the wireless solution, the catalogue describes LI00400 with a switch, transformer and dimmer. The switch measures 5 × 5 cm. This is a product option for lighting operation; its exact configuration is confirmed with the selected frame version. Lighting and heating provisions must be connected appropriately according to their respective documentation.

Wireless switching does not automatically mean every combination includes Wi-Fi or app operation. Identify functions you actually want, such as dimmable light or separate operation. Suitable components are selected accordingly. This provides a specific proposal and prevents a general term such as smart from obscuring the technical configuration.

precon and heating operation

The precon connector on a compatible heating panel is a connection component. It is not a complete thermostat on its own. Select panel, receiver and temperature controller as a suitable combination. The sensor is used in a representative position according to its own instructions. That measurement location is not determined solely by where the lighting frame hangs.

A programme may suit a room used at fixed times. Variable use may call for different operation. Discuss the choice using room details and the existing electrical installation. Find a starting point under precon connections and controls and our thermostats.

Fixings and the supporting structure

Mounting must support the panel and relevant accessories correctly. For ceiling mounting, support, fixings and securing arrangements are selected according to the exact manuals. Plasterboard or a loose suspended-ceiling tile is not a general supporting provision for a heating combination. For recess installation, panel, frame and lighting-frame compatibility are checked separately.

Use prescribed retainers and components for the selected combination. The panel surface becomes warm and can become hot; maintain required clearances and do not cover it. Cables and power supplies must also stay in suitable positions. Include component access before finally finishing the ceiling or wall.

Assessing the complete combination and costs

A complete enquiry describes the room, desired heating function and lighting usage. Send dimensions, ceiling height and several overview photographs. Include furniture, windows, existing lighting points and connection possibilities. State whether you want dimming and light and warmth at different times. This helps select the combination specifically.

HeatXL supports Welltherm in the Benelux with product selection and application coordination. For available-product prices and ordering options, go to Visit the infraroodpaneel.nl webshop ↗ (Opens in a new tab). Through a quotation request, receive a proposal for a complete combination. Check panel code, frame code, power supply, operation and required mounting accessories together in it.

Calculating lighting output separately

The LED frame uses its own electricity. According to the catalogue, LI120060 has an electrical output of 80 watts. During one full hour switched on, that is 0.08 kWh; four such hours use 0.32 kWh. Dimming and actual usage can change the situation. For a cost estimate, use actual consumption and your electricity tariff.

Add the heating panel’s separate electricity consumption when using both functions. Heating requirements depend on heat loss, temperature and operating hours. The time lighting is on does not automatically equal heating at full output. A clear distinction between both functions makes a calculation easier to assess.

Coordinating operation with the daily routine

In your enquiry, consider several ordinary room activities. Daylight may be sufficient during the day while you still want warmth at the workstation. In the evening, light may be wanted while the room is already at temperature. Cleaning may need another light setting from reading. Describing such situations gives switch and dimmer selection a specific starting point.

If several people use the room, agree who manages the heating programme and how lighting controls remain accessible. The lighting frame and room thermostat have different tasks. Clear operation helps avoid mistaking a light-setting change for a heating change. On completion, have the functions of components in the chosen configuration explained.

For a larger room, also assess which other light sources retain a role alongside the frame. A reading lamp, task light or illumination above another area may still be useful. Therefore, consider the complete lighting design’s function. Discuss the frame’s intended contribution and which existing lighting remains.

After positioning, actual usage times can help refine settings. Record when heating is needed and which light settings you normally use. A different table layout or new screen may prompt reconsideration of lighting appearance. Technical alterations to mounting or electrical configuration always use product details and professional assessment of the specific installation.

An existing lighting point and illumination of your work surface

Would you like a Welltherm infrared panel with light where an existing ceiling lamp is located? Include that connection point, a ceiling photograph and desired operation in your enquiry. We coordinate panel, lighting frame and control components. Then have the installer determine wiring, power supply and fixings required for the selected combination. You know beforehand which work belongs to the proposal.

For illumination, we compare more than lumen figures alone. Lumens describe the frame’s luminous flux; light reaching your table or desk also depends on mounting height, distribution and furnishings. A workstation, reading corner and dining table each need an appropriate lighting effect. Therefore, also include existing lamps and where you read or work in the plan. The warm-white 3000 K frame can support the overall appearance while targeted task lighting retains its own function.

Choosing a Welltherm IR panel with lighting during renovation

Renovation lets you incorporate warmth and light immediately into the same ceiling layout. Welltherm infrared heating with lighting can leave wall space available and reduce visible elements above an occupied area. First draw desired furniture, the complete frame size and other lighting. Then assess a shared position fitting both perceived warmth and light on the table or desk. The combination gains a clear place in the new interior while, for example, a reading lamp retains its own function.

Include this overview in the quotation: panel code, frame code, operation, connection points and required fixings. Our warm-white 3000 K LED frame has IP20; suitability of the complete assembly is assessed for the specific mounting position. Keep the confirmed configuration with renovation records. During later interior changes, you can discuss specifically which existing components remain and which need reselection.

Before closing a lowered ceiling, discuss how the power supply, dimmer, receiver and connections remain accessible. Have the installer coordinate components and cable routes with the selected configuration, and document how later inspection or replacement can follow product documentation. A discreet ceiling finish is thus combined with a practical plan for technical components.

Welltherm infrared panel with lighting: checking your proposal

Check whether the complete combination’s external dimensions fit the room. Have panel compatibility and desired mounting confirmed and verify that power supply and dimmer belong with the frame. Ask which temperature controls are selected for the panel. In a bathroom or unusual ceiling structure, corresponding positioning questions must also be resolved.

Keep confirmed product details and manuals. They help if you later want to adjust operation or ask about a component. A later available frame with approximately the same external dimensions is not automatically interchangeable. The original configuration and model documentation remain the starting point for reassessment.

Warranty and use

Applicable heating panels have a five-year warranty subject to conditions. An LED frame and other accessories may have different coverage. Consult our warranty conditions for selected products. Use and cleaning follow the panel and lighting-accessory instructions.

A suitable combination gives the room a clear design for warmth and light. Panel output, illumination, mounting and operation are each chosen deliberately. View our LED frames and share your room details to make possibilities specific.

From selection to a suitable proposal

Choose a Welltherm infrared panel with lighting by discussing heating and lighting requirements together and assessing them technically separately. Have panel/frame compatibility, mounting, power supply and operation confirmed. Request a proposal for your Welltherm infrared panel with LED lighting and receive a suitable complete configuration for your room.

Frequently asked questions

Can I operate warmth and light separately?

Desired operation is selected with specific power supply and control components. The catalogue describes fixed and wireless lighting solutions. State when you want light without warmth so the combination can be coordinated with those functions.

What light colour do the LED frames have?

The catalogue describes warm-white 3000 K light. Use those details for the selected version. Adjustable colour temperature or coloured light does not automatically follow from the description dimmable LED lighting.

Does a lighting frame fit every Welltherm panel?

Have panel code, frame code and mounting method checked together. Nominal sizes help initial selection but do not promise universal compatibility. Exact external dimensions and prescribed fixings remain important.

How much additional output does an LED frame require?

According to the catalogue, listed sets use 53, 66, 80, 93 or 96 watts depending on version. This is lighting output in addition to heating output. Calculate both functions using their own actual operating hours.

Is the combination suitable for every bathroom location?

The LED frame has IP20 and may have a different protection rating from the panel. Have the complete assembly assessed for the specific position, connections and distance to water. A suitable panel does not automatically make every accessory suitable.

Does wireless mean I get an app as standard?

Available functions depend on selected components. Wireless lighting switching is not a general promise of Wi-Fi or app operation. State the desired function and have the suitable combination confirmed.

Can I mount a combination directly on plasterboard?

The supporting structure must support the panel/accessory combination according to requirements. Visible plasterboard alone provides insufficient information. Have support, fixings and securing arrangements established using the exact manuals.

Where do I request the price of a complete combination?

Use the quotation request with room dimensions, mounting position, heating function and lighting preferences. We select suitable panels, frames, power supply and operation and provide the price of that configuration. Any unknown mounting details are identified beforehand.
