First-time Exhibitor Introduces Mirage, Freedom, and EOS Patio & Window Awnings at Denver Convention Center, September 5-7
Broomfield, CO - July 31, 2024 – Sol-Lux, a subsidiary of Carefree of Colorado (the global leader in RV awnings) with over 50 years of awning manufacturing experience, is excited to announce its first-time exhibition at the 2024 CEDIA Expo, taking place at the Denver Convention Center in Denver, CO on September 5th - 7th, 2024. Sol-Lux will showcase its complete product suite, including the stylish and intelligent Mirage and Freedom patio awnings, and the innovative, fully autonomous EOS window awning.
Sol-Lux’s Mirage and Freedom patio awnings utilize Somfy® motorization, which can function as standalone awnings using the Somfy Situo Remote or integrate seamlessly with third-party home automation systems when adding the Somfy Tahoma Hub. Their flagship Mirage patio awning is enhanced with dimmable LED lighting, available in 2700K or 6000K, adding ambient lighting to any outdoor space. These patio awnings span up to 21’ widths and offer up to 12’ of sun protection coverage, depending on the model selected.
The EOS window awning requires zero user interaction, operating autonomously by adjusting based on sun exposure, wind, and temperature sensitivities set at configuration. It is solar-powered and battery-operated, promoting energy efficiency. Manual operation and setup can be managed through the Sol-Lux app. The EOS awning is available in widths up to 120” with a 45º angle pitch, effectively blocking the sun when needed most without compromising the exterior view. By blocking the sun during peak hours, the EOS awning helps maintain interior temperatures, reducing the run time of a home’s HVAC system and further improving overall energy efficiency.
All Sol-Lux awnings feature advanced integrated sensors that offer additional protection by safely retracting the awnings during extreme winds or inclement weather. Both patio and window awnings are customizable in size, motor location (patio awnings only), cassette colors, and Sunbrella® or Recasens® (Mirage and Freedom only) marine-grade acrylic textile color options, enhancing their stylish aesthetic. The battery-operated Freedom and EOS models do not require an electrician, making installation and servicing straightforward and efficient for installers.
