What color is Behr Burning Coals?
Behr Burning Coals P200-5 is a warm, medium-light coral with a clear peach-orange cast. Its rosy warmth keeps it from reading as a simple orange, giving walls a lively but still grounded wash of color. In bright daylight, Burning Coals appears sunnier and more peach-forward; under warm evening bulbs, its coral notes become richer and slightly softer. It suits a dining nook, powder room, or bedroom accent wall where a warm hue can carry the room without becoming too dark. Pair it with creamy off-whites, pale sand, natural oak, woven textures, or muted blue-green accents for contrast.

LRV of Burning Coals
Burning Coals has an LRV of 45.14% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 45.14%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
