Sun Control: Aerofins

Hunter Douglas Aerofin Systems blend style and functionality, bringing a distinct look to a building’s exterior while providing shade and comfort to the internal spaces.

Aerofin systems feature wing-shaped panel elements, or fins, to combine optimal solar effectiveness with a sleek, futuristic appearance.

.

Design Flexibility

The stylish appearance of the extruded fins and the broad range of sizes provide interesting possibilities and allows the optimal choice for integrating the fins in your building design. As a projected application or used along the elevation, installed as endless horizontal lines or segmented vertical lines to appear on the building.

.

Easy Installation

The adjustable Aerofin systems gives the user the option of setting the fins at any possible angle from 0 to a maximum of 120 degree at any time.

With a motorised system, maximum convenience can be obtained with the optional intelligent control system, which automatically regulates the fins according to the sun path and weather conditions.

The fixed Aerofin systems mounted in a sub-structure have been designed to accommodate any angle between 0° and 180° with increments of 5 degrees.

The fin angle can be set during installation. To create continuous lines some systems can be fitted with V-bracket fixture, available in 0, 30 and 45 degree inclination or a Cup-bracket fixture, available in 0, 30 and 45 degree inclination.
