Accessibility
Operate the Powerlouver System when installed up high more frequently or automatically in anticipation of needs, not in response to them. This removes the need for awkward map rods to operate manual handles in out-of-reach locations.
Aesthetics
The Altair Powerlouver System boasts superior aesthetics, with no visible external rods or automated devices. The low voltage motors are concealed within the frame, making for a clean and modern appearance. A stylish and elegant option for contemporary residential or commercial building designs.
Convenience
Imagine walking into a home that has been programmed to open your Powerlouvers to cool the house naturally before arriving home from work or relaxing on the couch and operating your Powerlouvers with a smartphone. All this is available when using a Building Management System.
Maximising Natural Ventilation with the PowerlouverTM System
The Powerlouver Window has been developed to reach heights up to 8′ 6-3/4″ and quietly opens to 87.5 degrees, automatically stopping at the fully open and fully closed positions or can be stopped in any intermediate position throughout the open/close cycle.
When fully open, the Powerlouver allows 90% natural ventilation through the entire window opening which helps keep the building at a comfortable temperature without the need for artificial cooling systems. This is in comparison to common powered awning windows that only provide between 12% – 30% air depending on the wind direction.
Powerlouver Windows are ideal for out-of-reach locations to allow hot air to escape quickly with a simple press of a button. No fine motor skills or large control rods are required, encouraging occupants to operate the windows more frequently to ventilate the building. Powerlouvers also make for great floor-to-ceiling feature windows to help improve the quality of indoor air so building occupants can be left feeling fresh and healthy.
