VELUX Blackout Energy Pleated Blinds

Yes, the VELUX energy blind can also be combined with an awning blind for additional heat protection and an insect screen for an insect free environment. Please note that you cannot combine electrically operated and solar powered blinds.

The VELUX energy blind is made of a double-pleated polyester blackout cloth with an interior aluminium honeycomb structure that effectively blocks out incoming light. It also improves the insulation effect of the window, improving the indoor climate. This, combined with the elegant look and flexible positioning, makes it the ideal solution for bedrooms and living rooms.

VELUX energy blinds combine the elegant look of classic pleated blinds with the insulating power of an aluminium coating. The energy blind provides a light dimming effect and keeps heat in during the winter. It can be positioned anywhere in the window, improves comfort and room temperature, and is a great way to make your home more energy efficient. Energy blinds are very suitable for bedrooms. The energy blind is made specifically for VELUX roof windows.

VELUX electrically operated blinds are a perfect match for VELUX electric roof windows and fit these perfectly. However, if you don't have an electrically operated window, but would like to install an electrically operated blind, you simply need to add a KUX 110 control system to your order as well. As the blind is remote controlled, this kind of blind is great for windows that are out of reach or where you expect to adjust the incoming light often.

Please note that the electrical blind does not come with a remote control of its own. To control the blind, you either use the same remote that you also use for your VELUX window or the remote that is included in the KUX 110 control system.

When thinking about purchasing a non-manual blind, there are a number of factors you may want to consider.

1. Only genuine VELUX blinds are available with remote control operation. All Itzala blinds are manually operated.

2. VELUX blinds are also available in an electrically operated or solar operated version. Both are very practical as they allow you to adjust the blinds placement with ease, putting complete daylight control right at your fingertips. Remote control blinds are highly recommended for windows that are out-of-reach, in an extension or high up in a loft, and for windows where you expect to adjust the position of the blind often.

Electrically operated blinds are only suitable for VELUX INTEGRA® electric roof windows. Solar powered blinds fit all manually operated VELUX roof windows and also all solar powered VELUX INTEGRA® roof windows.

Both types of blinds are remote controlled, but can, apart from the tilting feature on the electrically operated VELUX venetian blind, also be manually operated. The remote control for the electrically operated blind is battery powered. The solar powered blind is powered by an energy-saving, solar-rechargeable battery, which is good for up to 600 operations even if there is no sun for recharging. Electrically operated blinds are also available with io-homecontrol® for intelligent features, such as scheduling.

3. Non manual blinds are available in multiple versions. Blackout blinds and Roller blinds are available in electrically operated or solar powered versions. Venetian blinds only come in manually operated and electrically operated versions. Awning blinds are available in manually operated or solar powered versions. Pleated blinds are only available in a manually operated version. Both blinds are remote controlled, but can, apart from the tilting feature on the electrically operated VELUX venetian blind, also be manually operated.
