Awning Motors

Enjoy Automatic Climate Control all around your home, even when you're away from home, with retractable awnings powered by SOMFY. Maximize your awning enjoyment and insist on a SOMFY motor for your awning. A push button motor makes your awning so easy to use. At the simple flick of a switch your awning will extend or retract automatically. Simply touch the switch and walk away. Your awning will automatically stop.

All motors are warranted for 5 years. Manual override motors with a gear/motor combination are available which enables you to operate your awning in case of power failure and the electricity is cut off during a thunder storm (see below left).

We recommend the new Somfy RTS motor for Sunair Sunstar and Sunair model lateral arm awnings up to 26' long and all retractable window awnings. This revolutionary motor comes with a 12' cord that has a 110v plug already installed. No electrician is needed! All you have to do is plug it into a regular outlet and you're ready to enjoy the comfort and convenience of a motorized awning. And that's not all! This motor option includes a remote control. Control up to 4 awnings from the comfort of your chair or install a wireless wall switch. Shade control has never been easier or more convenient.


The SOMFY Compact Manual Override is your guarantee of total control over your retractable awnings at all times, even in cases of power failure.

Eliminate an electrician with SOMFY Outdoor Plug-In System! All you need is an outdoor receptacle to connect the UL-approved, weatherproof components.

With a simple flick of this Decorator Toggle Switch your awnings will extend or retract automatically. You can walk away as your awning will automatically stop.

Automatic Sun and Wind Control
For the ultimate in awning convenience install the Somfy sun and wind controls. The automatic controls analyzes the sun and the wind which triggers your awning system even when you are away. When the sun comes out so does the awning to protect the home from scorching sunlight. When a storm or strong breeze threatens, in comes the awning, safe from the damaging effects of the wind or rain. You can adjust the controls to the sun and wind levels that you prefer. As a bonus, all sun and wind controls now include a wireless remote control. Control your awning from the comfort of your chair.
 

 

Soliris Sensor
Soliris Sensor is a wireless sun and wind device that controls your awnings automatically, providing shading when needed and retracting them when strong winds are threatening. Even while you are out, the exterior sensor is constantly watching over your awnings, communicating directly with the wireless motor inside the awning. A simple connection to the receiver is all that the motor and sensor require with no complex cabling or disturbing the interior
decor or external facade of your home.

For your own convenience, you can choose between automatic and manual operation with the selector button on the remote. You can also operate the awning manually with the up, down and stop buttons. For the security of your installation, the wind function cannot be cancelled (in case of strong wind, the awnings will always be retracted automatically.)

  Eolis
Eolis is an automatic radio wind control for awnings. Consisting of a small weatherproof receiver and a discrete wind sensor, it is installed outside near the motorised awning and controlled from the Centralis  switch or the remote control. Eolis will detect strong winds and automatically retract the awning. It can be installed anywhere in the home without disturbing the decor, as they do not require any wiring between the control box and the switch.

Any of our standard and CMO motors can have remote control added with the Somfy remote receiver unit.

All remote sun, wind, and remote control kits include a plug and cable that gives you the option to wire your motor direct or plug into an existing outlet. These control packages practically pay for themselves because you don't need an electrician to wire the motor!

 

SOMFY warrants its motors for 5 years.
