01/03/2023

If you're thinking of buying a new awning and don't know if it's worth motorizing it or cranking it all your life, this article will help you decide.

We live in a constantly evolving world and there is more and more automation in our lives. Therefore, it is important to adapt to the comfort it brings us.

Awnings are constantly evolving and are increasingly demanding to be motorized. Especially when they are large awnings.

The main advantage of having a motorized awning is the fact that with a simple "click" you can open or close it quickly. You save having to go outside every time the sun dazzles you to watch TV or to be eating quietly in the dining room of your home.

It is clear that a 2 mt awning is not the same. width x 2 mts. exit, than one that is 5 mts. wide x 3.00 mts. departure Manually operating such a large awning can become a big hassle. Not to mention all the time it takes to do the whole route. If one day it suddenly starts to rain and you need to close the awning, doing it from the remote will only be a matter of seconds.

One of the key points of having an engine is that it allows you to link automations, such as sun, wind or rain sensors, which make the process even more automated.

Another advantage is the control of the awning from your Smartphone using external applications, such as Somfy's Tahoma Switch, for example. These applications offer a wide range of possibilities to improve the use of your awning. An example would be the possibility of programming a schedule according to your needs, indicating that the awning opens or closes at the time you decide.

In summary, the advantages are as follows:

  • Less effort, more comfort
  • Possibility to install automations
  • Remote control from remote control or Smartphone
  • In case of emergency, closing it is very fast
  • You can operate the awning from anywhere in your home
