VELUX & Somfy, for extra thermal comfort!

VELUX and Somfy have been working on improving your everyday home life for over 50 years. Their innovations motorise and connect: electric roller shutters, roller blinds, automatic gates, electric garage doors, smart lighting system, smart heating, home alarm systems and more. All in the name of comfort, security and durability.

Because VELUX windows and Somfy motors work so well together, we recommend that you control them jointly using either a remote control or by using the TaHoma app to full utilise their capabilities and improve your thermal comfort.

Centralised control of your house

From bay windows to roof windows, the partnership between Somfy and VELUX offers you possibility of installing motorised sun protection on all the windows in your home. This allows you to maximise the functionality of your windows each and every day.

You can then enjoy the comfort of smart control centralisation by integrating VELUX products into your Somfy remote control. Doing the rounds of the windows in your home? This is ancient history now you can group together all Somfy and Velux io-homecontrol motorised blinds and motorised window shutters. And hey presto, one click on your remote control and all the motorised sun protection in the house opens or closes!

Ready for the summer season!

When summer season arrives and the first hot spell sets in, you need to be prepared so your house doesn't turn into an oven! This is where the compatibility of Velux windows products with the TaHoma smart home automation box comes to the fore, to protect you from the heat.

The use of a solar sensor means the opening and closing of motorised sun protection becomes automatic! In effect, VELUX and Somfy motorised shutters of the windows the most exposed to the sun will close automatically -during the hottest hours of the day. And you can combine it with the motorised terrace awning to add an additional barrier against the heat!

So, with the automation of the VELUX and Somfy solutions, your home stays cool without you having to do anything, even when you are not there!

You optimise the interior temperature for extra comfort, while limiting the use of your air conditioning... This is as significant for your electricity bill as it is for the planet.

Take it further with voice control

With smart speaker it is possible to control the opening and closing of your Velux electric roller blinds, and to control your smart devices by voice. This is of course a very practical solution for closing the shutters of the sometimes inaccessible roof Velux windows, without having to move.

It's even more convenient when you go to bed. Just launch a scenario that closes all the electric shutters and switches off the lights, meaning you don't need to go walking around your house. Just say "Ok Google, activate good night!" to your Google speaker, from your bed for example, to control your equipment in incomparable comfort! Tempting, isn't it?
