Hello
We are currently building with a developer and are getting a roof window.
We want to retrofit a roof window blind later on the roof window. (Not offered by the developer)
All our shutters are electrically operated by a switch.
My question is: How should the roof window blind be optimally connected?
Our roof window will be Roto and we should therefore also use the Roto roof window blind.
By solar and radio or electrically via power connection and switch on the wall.
Our electrician only wants to lay the power connection in a box under the insulation and sealing. That means the insulation and sealing would have to be cut afterwards to get the cable out and resealed again.
The resealing probably creates a weak point in the roof.
Solar:
Advantage: does not require a power connection and the roof covering does not have to be cut.
Disadvantage: you are tied to the remote control and cannot integrate it into smart home systems.
How does the solar function work? Does the battery always get enough power (the roof window is on the north side)?
Electric:
Advantage: always has power, can be connected with the same switches as the other shutters, and can be easily integrated into smart home systems with flush-mounted actuators.
Disadvantage: the power cable must be run through the roof covering.
My question now is what would you recommend to us?
Does anyone know how to make the roof covering 100% watertight again?
