Remote Control Skylights?
Skylights are frequent additions when homeowners rennovate because they allow for the entry of natural light into a room. You also get a convenient window to the sky. Heat gain can be a problem with skylights, however, since some of them are exposed to the sun all day. Manufacturers like Velux have considered this problem and come up with motorized skylights that can be opened to let out the heat that naturally rises to the ceiling. Also, Velux offers Venetian blinds and roller shades for their skylights, which you can operate manually, via remote control, or through a wall-mounted keypad.
