EXTERIOR SHADES*
A first for the window industry, Marvin® Windows and Doors now offers an automated exterior shading system that’s fully
integrated, fully retractable and fully concealed for both Passive and non-Passive product selections.
Automated Exterior Shades offers convenience and energy efficiency benefits of a motorized shading system. Unlike current
exterior shading systems, Marvin’s new patent-pending shading solution uses no bulky add-ons that ruin the line of the windows
from outside and block the view from inside.
Choose from a retractable louvered screen for solar control and natural ventilation, or the more traditional shade with slats to
match your desires for solar control, performance and privacy.
Shades can be programmed to the right amount of light 24 hours a day. Let in the sun to warm your home naturally during cool
weather — then program the system to close the shades when you want to keep the sun out, or simply desire complete privacy.
The quiet, low-voltage integrated motor is controlled electronically.
