Skylight Manufacturer VELUX Introduces Incentive on Solar-Powered Blinds
Oakville, ON (PRWEB) July 01, 2011
Skylight manufacturer VELUX is revolutionizing the relationship between residential skylights and energy efficiency. Now passive solar heating and energy savings are easier than ever with solar-powered blinds and attractive roller-shades that open and close with the touch of a button. To make things even more appealing, VELUX has announced a limited-time price reduction of $100 on all solar blind systems for fixed curb-mounted skylights and required accessories beginning July 1, 2011.
The solar-powered blind system from VELUX is available with energy-efficient blackout shades and permeable roller-blinds that allow diffused sunlight to pass through while preserving the blind’s energy-efficient attributes. Thermo-reflective coatings and the special light-blocking weave of the cloth roller blinds create a heat-resistant barrier that can reduce heating and cooling expenses for each room by 20 percent. The deluxe blackout shades from VELUX allow less than two percent of available light to pass through.
Each solar-powered roller shade contains a battery that is naturally charged by the sun. This innovative system stores enough power to operate on the cloudiest days and at night too. VELUX estimates that tens of thousands of curb-mounted skylights are installed across Canada yet most are not operating as efficiently as possible. Solar-powered roller blinds are easy to install and can solve several problems at once.
By filtering available light, VELUX blinds eliminate glares on computer screens and electronic devices while allowing homeowners to control how the sun heats interior spaces. Solar-powered blinds are easy to install on new and existing skylights. The innovative blind system from VELUX is operated by a wireless controller. Because the VELUX system is wireless, installation is fast and easy. No additional wiring is required.
In winter and summer, controllable solar blinds can reduce energy consumption while keeping climate-controlled living spaces more comfortable. The VELUX solar-powered blinds are aesthetically pleasing and designed to complement a variety of interior styles from traditional to contemporary. Saving energy has never looked or felt this good, and now it’s easier and more affordable, too.
"Now is a great time to take advantage of this limited-time incentive on the stylish and energy-efficient solar-powered blind system from VELUX. This special offer for $100 off recommended retail prices is a great way to enjoy even more savings. Homeowners can save when they buy and reduce energy bills in the future.
