An LED frame does not need to be built into the ceiling: the Welltherm LED frame LI150060 can be mounted on the wall or ceiling. Welltherm LED frames are available for various panel sizes, allowing you to match the size to the heating system and the available space. The right choice therefore starts with the dimensions and the mounting method.
A sleek frame gives infrared heating a light, finished look, but installation requires more than just the right size. Check in advance how much space the frame occupies, which material and finish match the panel, and where the power supply and controls will be located. This prevents the frame from not fitting the wall or ceiling.
In this article, you will read which Welltherm frame sizes are available and how the dimensions relate to the heating panel. You will also discover what to look for regarding materials, clearance, fixings, and mounting to the wall or ceiling. This allows you to compare the options effectively and determine which solution suits the space and desired finish.
The Welltherm LED frame LI150060 can be mounted on the wall or ceiling. It is not a recessed frame, so you attach it to the surface. This difference determines how you prepare the location: take into account the visible edge and the space around the panel. Measure the available wall or ceiling space before choosing a mounting location. Compare this measurement with the outer dimensions of the frame, not just the panel size. This prevents a protruding edge from hitting a cabinet, door, or ceiling molding.
Next, plan the power supply and controls. The light frame operates on 24 V DC via the appropriate power supply. The Welltherm transformer connects to 230 V AC. The mounting illustration shows the radio dimmer and transformer at a distance of approximately 70 mm. Maintain a minimum distance of 50 mm from the control unit, as indicated in the mounting options. Before installation, check where cables can run and where the controls remain accessible. For example: for ceiling mounting, the chosen location must leave space for the frame, power supply, and controls.
The lighting can be controlled with a Welltherm radio dimmer. According to Welltherm, the optional wall switch for the LED frame has dimensions of 55 × 55 mm. Select the control before determining the mounting location so that the switch remains accessible and the power supply can be neatly positioned.
Treat the LED frame and the heating panel as separate components. The integrated light source is not separately replaceable. A carefully chosen location also prevents the lighting from unintentionally obstructing your line of sight. In the case of distance purchases, consumers may notify the European Union within 14 days of receipt that they wish to withdraw from the purchase.
Additional installation conditions may apply to other Welltherm products. The Welltherm set 14170 is intended for ceiling mounting of round glass heaters. This is a different application than attaching this LED frame; therefore, check whether the selected set and the product are compatible before preparing for installation. A ceiling solution for a round glass heater is not automatically suitable for a rectangular light frame. Also, take into account the substrate and the available space so that the product can be positioned as intended.
For the Welltherm BP bathroom panel, there is a specific point to consider for vertical mounting: the top 75 centimeters must remain free of textiles across the full width. Therefore, keep this zone free of towels or other fabrics when determining the position. This condition applies to the specific bathroom panel and is not a general rule for every Welltherm frame. During preparation, check which product you are installing and follow the corresponding installation conditions. This will prevent you from applying instructions for a different type of heating to the LED frame.
Finding a suitable frame starts with the size of the infrared panel. Welltherm uses different codes for different panel sizes. The code LI060060 corresponds to a 60 × 60 cm panel. The frame itself measures 61 × 61 cm and has a power output of 53 W. That difference between the panel size and the outer dimensions is important. Therefore, do not use only the nominal panel size when measuring. The outer edge also takes up space.
Suitable sizes are also available for elongated panels. The LI090060 is intended for a 60 × 90 cm panel. Its outer dimensions are 61 × 91 cm. The LI120060 fits 60 × 120 cm and measures 61 × 121 cm. For a 60 × 150 cm panel, there is the LI150060, with outer dimensions of 61 × 151 cm. The LI120090 fits a 90 × 120 cm panel. This frame measures 91 × 121 cm. Always check both sides and the full outer dimensions.
Also pay attention to the size of the panel itself. A panel labeled as approximately 60 × 120 cm may actually measure 59.2 × 119.2 cm. Therefore, accurately measure the existing panel and compare those dimensions with the intended panel size of the frame. This prevents a similar product name from leading to an incorrect combination. The model code provides an additional check alongside the dimensions.
The costs of Welltherm LED frames vary by size and version. Therefore, only compare frames with the same intended panel size and check what is included with the chosen version. A 2-year warranty applies to the LI150060. The integrated light source is not separately replaceable. Warranty and lifespan are different things: the former indicates the warranty period, while usage and conditions influence how long the lighting lasts.
Before making your choice, perform a quick size check: note the panel code, measure the width and height, and compare both with the corresponding frame code. For example, a 90 × 120 cm panel corresponds to the LI120090, not a frame for 60 × 120 cm. View the Welltherm LED frame sizes to compare the models.
When comparing, also pay attention to how the size is specified: product dimensions and the size of the matching panel are not automatically the same. The Welltherm LED frame has dimensions of 120 × 60 × 2 cm. Additionally, the Welltherm LED Frame is 62 cm high and 62 cm wide, with a depth of 2.5 cm. Use this data as an additional check alongside the panel size and model code, not as a replacement for that check. This way, you account for the space the frame itself occupies and prevent different size specifications from getting mixed up.
For the LI150060, the profile width is also relevant: the Welltherm LED frame LI150060 has a profile width of 2.6 cm. This profile dimension can be a factor when checking how much space the frame occupies and how it fits around the panel. Therefore, do not just compare the intended panel size with the model code, but also pay attention to the specified external dimensions and the width of the profile. By always taking the size into account, you make a more careful choice regarding the available space.

Welltherm manufactures the LED frame from anodized aluminum. The finish has the aluminum color RAL 9006. This gives the frame a metallic finish around the heating panel. The frame and the panel are separate parts. You therefore select them as two components that must fit together. Before installation, check whether the frame code corresponds to the panel size. This prevents you from selecting based solely on color or shape.
The distinction from other LED light frames lies in the specific design. Compare material, finish, suitable panel sizes, and the method of frame mounting. For Welltherm, the specified characteristics are anodized aluminum and RAL 9006. Other frames may have different constructions or finishes. Therefore, compare product details per model, not just the general designation 'LED frame'.
The light source is also part of the modular consideration. Welltherm LED frames provide warm white light with a color temperature of 3,000 K. This is relevant for maintenance: the frame contains both the surround and the lighting, while the heating panel remains a separate component. View this structure as a single light module alongside a single heating module.
The mounting uses rotatable magnets. Depending on the version, 2 or 3 magnets are rotatable. Before installation, check how these magnets relate to the panel and the desired mounting position. A frame must not only fit in terms of external dimensions; the mounting method must also match the chosen panel combination.
Suitability for damp rooms cannot be determined from the LED frame alone. The frame does not inherit the protection rating of the heating panel. Therefore, assess the protection rating of the panel separately and do not attribute it to the frame. For commercial applications, use the same practical check: look at panel size, frame design, lighting requirements, and mounting location. The product data does not indicate general commercial certification.
Use this check when comparing a Welltherm frame with another light frame:
The comparison clarifies which properties are fixed and which vary per alternative. Therefore, do not choose based solely on appearance. Match the material, panel combination, and installation to the space. This way, you evaluate the complete system without attributing frame characteristics to the heating panel.
Start at the mounting location, not at the drill holes. Measure the clearance on the wall or ceiling and compare it to the outer dimensions of the chosen frame. Temporarily mark the outline with painter's tape. This way, you can see how the edge relates to a cabinet, door frame, ceiling molding, or light fixture. Also check the sightlines from where you sit or work. A frame that fits on paper may still obstruct the view in the room.
Next, examine the surface. Note whether you are mounting to masonry, wood, or another structure: the surface determines which fasteners are suitable. When planning the layout, also consider the cable routing and power supply. Mark where the connection exits and ensure the cable does not disappear behind an inaccessible spot. Additionally, reserve space for the controls so that the components do not block each other.
For ceiling mounting, the position of the fixing is particularly important. The Welltherm HP ceiling bracket 14214 measures 9.5 × 30.0 cm and weighs 0.4 kg. Use this information to mark the location on the ceiling and weigh the bracket as a separate component. Compare the bracket position with the frame and panel positions. An aligned installation looks neater and clearly indicates where the fixing points will be located.
Before assembly, go through this check in order:
For example: for a ceiling with a visible beam, first check that the frame position remains clear. Then mark out the 9.5 × 30.0 cm bracket and determine whether the mounting zone rests on the beam or on the surrounding ceiling. Repeat the same check on a wall next to a door frame. This way, you identify space conflicts before drilling holes.
Complete the check by reviewing all dimensions and selected positions together. Compare the markings with the panel, the bracket, and the connection route. This ensures the mounting forms one coherent plan, not a series of isolated decisions. Only begin mounting when the frame, substrate, and cable location align logically.
Welltherm offers frames for various panel shapes. The models range from square to elongated versions. For a square panel, there is the LI060060, intended for 60 × 60 cm. The LI090060 fits 60 × 90 cm. The LI120060 and LI150060 are intended for a longer, narrow shape. These fit panels of 60 × 120 cm and 60 × 150 cm, respectively. The LI120090 is designed for a 90 × 120 cm panel.
The panel size first helps you choose the correct model group. Next, you compare the power of the lighting. The LI060060 has a power of 53 W, while the LI090060 uses 66 W. The LI120060 comes in at 80 W. For the LI150060, that is 93 W; the LI120090 has 96 W. So, the power does not only increase with length. The width and design also play a role.
Use the code as the first point of reference, not as the sole size check. The numbers refer to panel sizes, but the edge extends beyond the panel. For example, a frame for 60 × 150 cm measures 61 × 151 cm. For the LI120090, the outer dimensions are 91 × 121 cm. Take this extra space into account when marking out a location. This prevents a long molding, cabinet, or ceiling edge from hindering installation.
A simple selection sequence makes comparison clear. First, note the panel size and then choose the corresponding code. Next, compare the size with the available wall or ceiling area. Finally, assess whether the shape suits the space: a LI060060 appears more compact, while the LI150060 forms a larger, elongated surface. However, the size does not tell the whole story regarding the desired lighting effect. Also consider where you need the light, for example, above a workspace or along a long wall.
Avoid choosing based solely on a rounded product name. A panel labeled approximately 60 × 120 cm may actually measure 59.2 × 119.2 cm. Therefore, compare the panel, the model code, and the external dimensions side by side. This way, you accurately match the available Welltherm sizes to your existing heating system and the room.
