Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does the window require a battery backup?

The system includes an integrated battery that is charged by the solar panel, so it remains functional even when the sun is not actively shining.

Can I operate this window manually if I lose power?

The system is designed for automated operation, but in emergency situations, there are manual override procedures provided in the professional installation manual.

How long is the warranty for the motor and solar components?

VELUX provides a comprehensive warranty for the mechanical and electrical components; please refer to your specific purchase documentation for the exact term length.

Can this window be installed on a flat roof?

No, this specific model is designed for roof pitches between 15° and 90°.

Is the white finish prone to yellowing?

The white paint finish is durable and specifically treated to resist yellowing and degradation from UV exposure.

How does the rain sensor work?

The sensor uses conductive contacts; when water bridges these contacts, a signal is sent to the motor to trigger the closing sequence.

Troubleshooting

Window does not respond to the wall switch

Check if the remote switch is paired correctly or if the battery in the switch needs replacing.

Window fails to close when raining

Ensure the rain sensor area on the frame is clean and free from leaves, debris, or bird droppings.

Motor sounds strained or sluggish

Check the window sash for any physical obstructions and ensure there is no ice buildup preventing movement.

  • No complex electrical wiring required for installation
  • Automatic rain sensors prevent accidental water entry
  • Triple glazing offers high energy efficiency and noise insulation
  • Concealed motor maintains a sleek, clean look

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of this window is streamlined because it bypasses the need for an electrician, though it should still be performed by a professional roof window installer to ensure weather-tight seals. It is compatible with roof pitches ranging from 15° to 90°. For maintenance, the easy-to-clean coating on the outer pane minimizes dirt buildup, but you should periodically wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to ensure maximum charging efficiency. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents on the glass or the white-painted frame to maintain the finish over time.
