Operable Louvre Roofs for Energy Efficiency and Comfort

Operable louvre roofs are a popular choice for buildings that require both energy efficiency and comfort. They can be used in various settings, including residential and commercial buildings.

Operable louvre roofs allow for natural ventilation, which can reduce the need for air conditioning and mechanical ventilation. This can lead to significant energy savings.

In hot climates, operable louvre roofs can be used to prevent overheating by allowing hot air to escape. This can be especially beneficial in regions with high temperatures and humidity.

Operable louvre roofs can also be designed to provide shade, reducing the amount of direct sunlight that enters a building. This can help to prevent overheating and improve overall comfort.

Our operable louvre roof systems come with some amazing key features that make them perfect for any outdoor space. One of the standout features is the ability to open and rotate the blades up to 135 degrees when used as an overhead opening roof system. This allows for maximum ventilation and flexibility.

The Retract Roof feature is also a game-changer, where the roof blades stack neatly away leaving approximately 75% open space to enjoy the sky above. This is perfect for those sunny days when you want to soak up the rays.

You can also extend the roof blades back in place when shelter is required, providing a comfortable haven from the elements. This is especially useful on windy or rainy days.

Louvretec's Retractable Opening Roof provides the features of an original opening roof with the added ability to retract the louvres back, allowing users to enjoy the sky above. This is a huge advantage over traditional fixed roofs.

The Retract Roof system comes in three distinctive options: the 220 Original Retract Roof, the 220/40 Slimline Retract Roof, and the 220/30 Slimline Retract Roof. Each of these options offers a unique combination of features and configurations.

The roof's louvres can be adjusted to provide varying levels of ventilation and lighting, with some systems allowing for up to 90% of the roof to be opened. This flexibility makes the operable louvre roof an ideal solution for buildings with changing climate and lighting needs.

Operable louvre roofs are designed to be energy-efficient, reducing heating and cooling costs by up to 30% compared to traditional roofing systems. This is achieved through the use of insulation and the ability to control ventilation and lighting.

Operable louvre roofs are incredibly versatile and can be tailored to fit a variety of design spaces. The Sun Louvre Collection, for example, offers both fixed and operable louvres that can be customized to suit different installations.

The material used for the roof system is extruded aluminium, which boasts rust resistance, strength, and ease of recycling. This makes it a popular choice for manufacturers worldwide.

The louvre blades can open and rotate up to 135 degrees, allowing for maximum airflow and natural light. The Retract Roof system, on the other hand, enables the blades to stack neatly away, leaving approximately 75% open space to enjoy the sky above.
