Wind Sensors
Wind sensors as standard
Our years of experience means we have a good understanding of all the safety features required to protect your awning and your property. We use sophisticated technology to allow your new awning to ‘think’ for itself and all our automatic awnings have an exclusive and brand new Thomas Sanderson Mistral wind sensor fitted as standard.
The Mistral wind sensor, only available in the UK from Thomas Sanderson, detects the 3-dimensional movement of theawning during windy conditions. Once the wind reaches an unsafe level, the Mistral sensor will communicate wirelessly to the awning controls and immediately retract the awning preventing damage to you and your property.
After a set period of time once the wind has eased, your awning can automatically extend back out again. That’s safety, Thomas Sanderson style!
