Solar powered Deck Mounted Skylight FVS

FAKRO FVS solar powered deck mounted skylights are the autonomous products which do not require connection to the mains. Energy generated by photovoltaic panel is stored by an integrated battery.

FVS skylights are ideal solutions for out of reach applications. While providing natural light their venting feature brings in a fresh air.

FVS residential skylights are equipped with rain sensors which are not active when the skylight is closed and are activated with a few seconds delay only after opening the skylight.
