FAKRO offers smart and energy-efficient thermal blinds

Sunlight naturally illuminates and warms an interior space. In winter, this is a big advantage. In summer, too much warming of the space can lead to overheating. Due to climate change, our summers are getting warmer. This further increases the risk of overheating. FAKRO therefore offers smart and energy-efficient solutions to keep out heat in the house in summer.

The use of screens is an effective way to prevent heating of interior spaces on sunny days. FAKRO offers several types, manual or electric. Screens are placed on the outside of the window. They protect against solar heat up to eight times more effectively than interior blinds. This is because screens reflect sunlight before it reaches the glass. A sustainable alternative to an inefficient air conditioner.

Solar screens for skylights and gable frames

A solar-powered screen combines comfort with renewable energy. The integrated solar panel generates sufficient green power for the remote electric operation. In addition to solar screens for skylights, FAKRO now offers solar screens for facade frames. This allows the entire house to be optimally protected from overheating in the same style.

Smart daylighting solutions

FAKRO's electric roof windows, flat roof windows and blinds can be equipped with the Z-wave communication protocol. This allows the products to be operated electrically via remote control, smartphone or tablet. And can easily exchange data and cooperate with other devices via the Internet. In this way, FAKRO creates smart daylight solutions that think about home comfort and are able to improve the indoor climate.

Home cooling

In summer, for example, a gable frame (that can be opened) can work together with an electric skylight for summer-night cooling. Both products receive at the right time

a signal to open. The resulting natural airflow expels warm air and brings cool air inside. A simple and sustainable way to effectively cool the home.
