With its modular system, the Plaza Viva pergola awning from sun and weather protection expert Weinor meets a wide range of customer requirements – from extended usability via dimmable LED lighting to protection against low-angle sun with side shading. The extendable Valance Plus for sun, privacy and glare protection from the front is a further option and now also available with a practical solar drive, which charges automatically in sunlight.
The use of solar energy plays a key role in contemporary, environmentally friendly power supply for electrically powered systems, making it highly popular among end-users. Weinor addresses this demand with a new solar drive for extendable awning valances. With photovoltaic cells on the front profile of the Plaza Viva, the awning valance can now be extended and retracted independent from the power supply. The Valance Plus is a vertical shading system housed in a second fabric roll in the front profile of the pergola awning and provides valuable service as sun, privacy, and glare protection against low-angle sun.
Practical Control via Remote or Smart Home System
The Plaza Viva Valance Plus can be practically controlled using the Somfy io-homecontrol. Users can choose between remote control or smart home technology. The latter allows control via an app, smartphone or tablet, as well as voice control with Alexa or similar. Moreover, the Valance Plus is still available with a classic crank drive.
Easy to Install and Retrofit
Its advantage for specialist dealers lies in the straightforward handling of the Valance Plus solar drive: it is easy to install wirelessly and can be retrofitted at the customer’s request at a later date.
Enhanced Comfort for Contemporary Outdoor Living
The solar-powered awning valance adds another fundamental element to the modular system for even more patio pleasure. The Plaza Viva pergola awning not only ensures significantly longer usability of the outdoor area due to its capability in light rain, but also provides top comfort for customers.
