Hunter Douglas Adds 2 Automated Window Shades for Custom Installation Channel

Hunter Douglas added two installation solutions in its automated window shade line. The PowerView+ is a low-voltage, hardwired shade; the AC-powered PowerView is designed for large windows or banks of windows up to 240 inches wide. Both PowerView+ and PowerView use Hunter Douglas “ultra-quiet motors” and are paired with the company’s PowerView Hub interface for control by third-party systems from Control4, Crestron, Savant, Elan and URC, Scott Stephenson, director-product management, told us Monday. Most of Hunter Douglas’ shade styles can be automated with PowerView, he said.
