The energy efficiency of buildings plays a central role in the context of sustainability and climate neutrality, as the majority of the energy required in Germany is used to provide heat. Cooling in summer with the help of air conditioning units and heat pumps is also becoming increasingly popular. External solar shading systems can save a considerable amount of energy and significantly improve the energy efficiency of the building. In winter, solar radiation is used to increase the energy input into the building and thus minimize heating costs. The air between the window and the lowered solar shading acts as additional insulation and keeps the heat inside the building. In summer, rooms without sun protection can quickly overheat. External textile sun protection reflects and absorbs the sun's rays before they reach the window pane, preventing the interior from heating up quickly. If the room has air conditioning, further potential savings are possible as the need for cooling is significantly reduced. The heroal textile screens are equipped with a motor as standard. This gives you the option of fitting an additional timer or weather sensor to reduce energy consumption as much as possible.
