FAQs

How is the Velux Electric Integra Roof Window powered?

It is powered via a wired electrical connection that needs to be connected to your home's mains power supply. A wall switch is required for operation.

Can I install this window myself?

Due to the electrical components and the nature of roof installations, professional installation by a certified VELUX installer is highly recommended for safety and optimal performance.

What is the purpose of the rain sensor?

The rain sensor detects moisture and automatically triggers the window to close, protecting your home's interior from water damage during unexpected rain showers.

Is this window suitable for very wet areas like bathrooms?

Yes, the moisture-resistant finish on the timber frame makes it suitable for installation in kitchens, bathrooms, and other high-humidity environments.

How do I clean the exterior of the window?

The centre-pivot mechanism allows you to rotate the window 180 degrees, enabling you to clean the exterior glass from the inside of your home using a soft cloth and water.

What is the warranty period for this roof window?

VELUX typically offers a warranty on their roof windows. Please refer to the specific warranty documentation provided with your product or on the VELUX website for exact terms and duration.

Can I control this window with a remote control or smartphone app?

This specific model operates via a wired wall switch. VELUX may offer alternative smart home integrated systems or accessories that allow for app or remote control, which would need to be purchased separately.

Troubleshooting

Window does not operate

Check the electrical connection to the wall switch and ensure power is supplied to the circuit. Verify the wall switch is functioning correctly. Consult the installation manual for specific wiring diagrams.

Window closes automatically during dry weather

The rain sensor may be overly sensitive or obstructed. Gently clean the sensor surface with a soft, dry cloth. If the issue persists, check for any obstructions in the sensor's path or contact customer support.

Motor is noisy

Ensure the window is fully closed and the motor mechanism is not obstructed. If noise persists, there might be an internal issue with the motor; contact customer support.

Condensation on the exterior glass

This is normal in certain weather conditions and indicates the window is performing well by maintaining an insulated internal temperature. The anti-dew coating helps manage this.

Window is difficult to pivot or clean

Ensure the window is fully opened before attempting to pivot. Check for any obstructions around the pivot points. Refer to the cleaning instructions for the correct procedure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Installation of the Velux Electric Integra Roof Window requires professional expertise due to its electrical nature and integration into the roof structure. It's crucial to follow the manufacturer's detailed installation manual or engage a certified VELUX installer.

Compatibility:

Roof Pitch: Compatible with roof pitches ranging from 15° to 90°.
Operation: Requires a wired electrical connection to a wall switch (sold separately or as part of a system).

Care:

Cleaning the Frame: Wipe the white painted timber frame with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents to maintain the finish.

Motor & Sensor: Ensure the area around the motor housing and rain sensor is kept clear of debris. Periodically check that the rain sensor is free from obstructions.
