Hi folks,
I am in the middle of a substantial house renovation and have hit a problem.
Architect specified floor to ceiling windows onto the garden from the living room, and the builder made the appropriate holes in the wall. When my significant other was meeting the Windows Supplier, they where conspiring to put frame breaks and openings into the floor to ceiling windows, to allow "air in on hot days".
I was aghast - going to all the expense of putting in a floor to ceiling window - to look at a window frame, no way. So I half-begged/half-told them, that we could solve that problem by motorizing the roof windows that where to go into the vaulted ceiling, they relented, and windows where ordered.
Problem was that the builder later told me that the roof windows had already been ordered without motors, he fitted the same windows the following day. So now I have no motors and no openable windows in the living room, which will be drenched with sunlight as it is south-facing.
The roof windows are keylights, any ideas how I can solve this particular conundrum? is there any way to motorize them after-installation?
