What Exactly Are Solar-Powered Blinds and Shades?  

Our Motorized Blinds and Shades are powered by various technologies, including hardwired motorized, battery-powered motorized, and solar-powered blinds and shades. Therefore, we refer to our battery-powered motorized roller shades, honeycomb shades, or horizontal blinds, including a solar panel recharger, when we say we have “Solar Powered Blinds & Shades.”  A “Solar Powered Blind and Shades” is a motorized shade or blind that is rechargeable and powered by the sun’s renewable energy rather than a standard battery or a hardwired connection to your home’s electrical system.   

How Do Solar-Powered Blinds and Shades Operate?  

Our solar-powered motorized blinds and shades operate similarly to other motorized blinds and shades in that they may be raised or lowered using a remote control. However, it has a small solar panel that continuously recharges the battery of the blind or shade instead of needing a standard battery or hardwired electricity. This implies that you won’t need to buy new batteries and that the energy used to operate your motorized blinds and shades will only come from sustainable sources.  

The solar panel connected to your motorized blinds and shades will be placed behind the blind or shade so that it faces the window. The sun’s rays will reach the solar panel from this position and keep the blind or shade charged.   

Why do I want solar-powered blinds and shades? 

Here are a few justifications for why you might want solar-powered window coverings: Battery replacement can be expensive and time-consuming. Getting to these batteries is challenging because some windows are high and difficult to access. Additionally, many people are seeking ways to reduce their expenses due to the continually rising cost of electricity.  

Regardless of your motivation, New View Blinds and Shutters is here to help you get custom-made solar-powered blinds and shades into your home!   

Where should I put solar-powered blinds and shades?  

You must ensure that your Solar Powered Blind and Shades are placed in a window that receives at least a few hours of sunlight throughout the day because the sun’s rays power these blinds and shades.  

The battery in our solar-powered blinds and shades is large and rechargeable. It can operate generally for around a year, even without recharging (when wholly charged). Therefore, you need not be concerned about no sunlight for a few days. If it is not receiving enough sunshine, we also offer a manual charging wire plugged into the blind or shade to keep it powered.
