In indoor pools and spas the air is warm, humid and contains chlorine compounds. Electrically opened windows help to remove moisture and heat, especially in spring, autumn and at night. For the drives to last, the right selection and installation are essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In brief:<\/strong> Window drives in indoor pools should be placed outside the direct splash and condensation zone, have an adequate protection class and be serviced regularly. Window ventilation supplements the ventilation system but does not replace it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chain drives are suitable for bottom-hung and top-hung windows in the fa\u00e7ade. For heavy rooflights and glass roofs above the pool, linear or rack and pinion drives are the better choice. You can calculate the required force with the Window actuator calculator<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Usually not. Indoor pools need a ventilation system for dehumidification. Electrically opened windows supplement it, for example for night cooling in summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At least once a year. In humid, chlorinated air a shorter interval is worthwhile so that corrosion is noticed early.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat matters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
