By considering these factors, homeowners can make an informed decision about whether motorized shades are the right choice for their needs and lifestyle.
Are motorized shades reliable?
At our company, we use only the finest motors from trusted manufacturers such as Somfy and Rollease, which come with a five-year warranty for added peace of mind. It is important to be cautious of companies that offer cheaper, off-brand motors or those imported from China, as they may not meet the same quality standards and could lead to issues in the long term.
Do motorized shades need an outlet?
When it comes to motorized shades, the size and placement of the shades can impact the type of motor needed. For larger or higher shades, it may be necessary to install an outlet for a hardwired motor.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of rechargeable motors and electric motors for shades?
These motors are less expensive than electric motors and eliminate the need for any electrical work, making them an easy and convenient option for most homeowners. Electric motors, on the other hand, are hardwired and require an electrician to run the wiring through the walls, unless you don’t mind visible cords. This makes them a more complex installation and may require additional painting work after the installation is complete. However, electric motors are better suited for very large shades that rechargeable motors may struggle to lift, or for very tall windows that may be out of reach for a rechargeable motor.
It’s important to carefully consider your specific needs and preferences when deciding between rechargeable and electric motors for your motorized shades. Our team of experts can help you make the right choice and ensure a seamless installation process.
How to recharge a rechargeable motor?
Connect the charger to a wall outlet. Locate the motor head, which is typically positioned on the right or left side of the shade tube. You should see a black and white (sometimes white) wire coming out of the motor head.Connect the charger cord to the black and white wire in the motor head, just as you would connect a phone charger. Allow the shades to charge for 6-7 hours or overnight. You can easily find instructional videos on YouTube that demonstrate how to recharge your motorized shade’s built-in battery.
