INSPIRATION

What can you do with electric blinds?

The Benefits of Electric Blinds:

Presence Simulation

When you’re away on holiday, your smart home system can control your electric blinds, opening them during the day and closing them at night to simulate presence. This automated feature helps protect your belongings by making your home appear occupied, giving you added peace of mind.

Daily Cycles

Streamline your morning routine and protect your possessions from harmful UV rays during the brightest parts of the day with your new blinds. They make life easier in ways you never imagined.

Reducing Overheating

Everyone has their own tricks for staying cool during the warmer months, like storing pillowcases in the fridge or setting up fans around the living room. Now, your electric blinds can take it a step further by automatically regulating the temperature, reducing heat by up to 41%.

Energy Saving

Smart Shading Systems can help regulate temperature, lessening the need for heating or air conditioning usage. Having customisable energy savings automation can mean massive cost reduction when it comes to heating, without you having to compromise on your quality of life.
