Awnings are a decorative aesthetic element used to add value to the external areas of homes, in addition to being an effective tool for protecting interiors from excessive exposure to sunlight. This allows homeowners to reduce indoor temperatures and reduce the amount of energy used to cool rooms, mainly during summer. In other cases, the use of an awning makes outdoor spaces like terraces or gardens more comfortable, and therefore more usable.
There are several types of awnings on the market, all made with resistant fabrics able to effectively block sunlight and differentiate depending on the context or use. Along with the model, however, it is also important to take time to choose solutions for moving these objects. What are the advantages of automating blinds?
COMFORT AND CONTROL
Automation systems make it possible to open and close one or more blinds or shutters, simply and quickly with a transmitter, a wall-mounted keypad or a smartphone or tablet.
ENERGY SAVINGS
Connecting automation devices to light sensors makes it possible to set automatic opening and closing actions, thus optimising sun exposure of the room even if there is no one home.
SAFETY
Connect the automation device to rain or wind sensors enables it to close the awning to prevent possible damage to its structure.
