External awning blind for vertical window VMU Z-Wave Solar

The VMU Z-Wave Solar awning blind is an effective sunshade that works perfectly on large glazed surfaces. Its greatest advantage is its installation method– the fabric is placed on the outside, protecting windows from heating up, significantly reducing indoor temperature rise. As a result, a pleasant climate is maintained in the living room or office, even in full sunlight. The fabric darkens the interior, but does not deprive it of natural light. It allows you to still enjoy the view outside the window, creating a subtle filter that protects the privacy of the household and promotes everyday comfort.

Energy from the sun – convenience without wires

The VMU Z-Wave Solar is a solar-powered awning blind – no wires, no need to chisel walls or alter the façade. The built-in photovoltaic panel charges the battery, allowing you to use the awning blind even on cloudy days. This product is ideal for hard-to-reach places where traditional installation is difficult. It is controlled via a remote control or a wall-mounted button, as well as via a smartphone as part of the Smart Home system. The awning blind can automatically respond to weather conditions, providing convenience without the need for intervention – just program it once to enjoy comfort all season long.

Stylowa ochrona bez kompromisów

Stylish protection without compromise

The VMU Z-Wave Solar flush-mounted awning blind system allows most of the structural elements to be hidden behind the building's façade, without compromising its aesthetics. Side guide rails and a ZIP lock keep the fabric taut, preventing it from billowing in the wind. The awning blind fabric is made of durable fabric that is resistant to weather conditions, UV radiation and mechanical damage. The available colours allow you to match the awning blind to the style of your home, whether it is a modernist villa or a contemporary office building.

Cassette

The VMU Z-Wave Solar flush-mounted awning blind cassette has been designed with modern façades in mind. Installed under the façade, it remains almost invisible when the fabric is rolled up. Made of durable aluminium, it effectively protects the mechanism from adverse weather conditions – rain, dust and snow. The minimalist form of the cassette blends in perfectly with the building's façade, emphasising its clean, architectural lines.

Guide rails

The VMU Z-Wave Solar aluminium side guide rails integrated into the façade ensure stable and quiet fabric guidance. The ZIP system tensions the fabric along its entire length, eliminating the effect of waving even in strong winds. Discreetly concealed in the façade, the guide rails do not affect the appearance of the building, and their durability ensures long-term and trouble-free operation.

Fabric

The fabric of the VMU Z-Wave Solar awning blind is made of durable material that is resistant to UV radiation, wind, rain and mechanical damage. Its structure reduces interior heat while allowing pleasant, diffused light to pass through. The fabric is available in subdued colours that blend in perfectly with modern architecture.

Solar panel

The VMU Z-Wave Solar awning blind comes with an integrated photovoltaic panel mounted under the awning, which powers the battery and enables wireless operation of the system. This eco-friendly and convenient solution eliminates the need for electrical wiring. The awning blind also works on cloudy days – the built-in battery stores energy and powers the motor, ensuring reliable operation throughout the season.

 

Solar awnings should be installed in locations where the solar panel will be exposed to direct sunlight. It is recommended to install solar awnings on the south, west, and east sides. Installing them on the north side may result in battery discharge and the awning becoming inoperable.

 

Characteristic features

Our products stand out for what truly matters. Discover the features that make them reliable and exceptional in everyday use.

Fabric placed outside the window

In all FAKRO vertical roll-up awning models, the fabric is mounted on the outside of the glazing, which allows it to block sunlight before it reaches the glazing, eliminating the hot greenhouse effect. As a result, roll-up awnings effectively reduce interior heating by up to 10°C, ensuring thermal comfort without the need for air conditioning.

UV radiation reduction and interior protection

FAKRO vertical roll-up awnings block up to 90% of UV radiation, protecting furniture, floors and decorative elements from fading and degradation. In addition, the fabric is available in various transparency degrees, allowing for comfortable interior lighting without annoying glare.

Privacy and insect screen function

When rolled down, the vertical roll-up awning provides privacy during the day, limiting visibility from the outside while maintaining contact with the surroundings. Many models also function as a mosquito screen, allowing for ventilation without worrying about insects.
