Designed with a white, easy-to-clean polyurethane finish and double glazing, it is a practical choice for homes and buildings where moisture resistance, ventilation and remote control are important.\n\nThe window is manufactured from high-quality timber and treated to provide increased resistance to moisture. Three coats of protective polyurethane varnish, together with additional corner guards, help protect the wooden components from humidity. This makes the FTU-V U3 particularly suitable for rooms where moisture levels can be higher, including kitchens and bathrooms. Its clean white finish also makes it suitable for buildings such as hotels and hospitals where an easy-to-maintain appearance is preferred.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eEnergy-Efficient Double Glazing\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe FTU-V U3 Electro features an energy-saving U3 glazing unit with an overall window U-value of 1.3 W\/m²K and a glazing U-value of 1.1 W\/m²K. The double-glazed unit uses argon-filled panes to support its thermal performance and help create a more comfortable indoor environment.\n\nThe toughened external glass provides additional durability, while the glazing also offers an acoustic insulation rating of 32dB. Together, these features make the window suitable for a wide range of residential and commercial applications.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eElectric Operation and Z-Wave Control\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe FTU-V U3 Electro comes factory-fitted with a three-channel control unit, 24V DC power supply and ZC 24 servo motor. These integrated components allow the window to be opened and closed remotely and also enable compatible electrically operated accessories to be controlled using the same remote control.\n\nThe window includes contacts on the frame for easier installation of compatible electrical accessories, including ARF-E and AJP-E internal accessories and the ARZ-E external roller shutter. These accessories can be integrated with the control system and operated conveniently through the same remote control.\n\nThe Z-Wave module provides compatibility with the FAKRO electric accessory system, giving you greater flexibility when creating a remotely controlled roof window setup.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSimple Mains Connection\u003c\/h3\u003e\nDespite its integrated electrical components, installation is designed to remain straightforward. The FTU-V U3 Electro can be connected directly to a standard 230V domestic power supply, meaning there is no need to install a separate power supply system for the window.\n\nThe installation process is similar to that of a standard FAKRO roof window and can be used with standard FAKRO flashings. This makes it easier to incorporate the electrically operated window into a new roof or replacement project.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAutomatic Ventilation and Rain Protection\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe window features an automatic V40P air inlet, which can provide airflow of up to 49m³\/h. This helps introduce fresh air into the room and supports a more comfortable indoor environment without requiring the main sash to remain open.\n\nFor additional convenience, the FTU-V U3 Electro is equipped with a rain sensor. When rain is detected, the sensor automatically closes the sash, helping to protect the interior from unexpected changes in weather.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eEasy Manual Operation and Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\nAlthough the window is designed for convenient remote-controlled operation, it can also be disconnected from the electric actuator when manual operation is required. Turning the handle through 90 degrees disconnects the sash from the actuator.\n\nThe centre pivot design also makes cleaning easier. The sash can be rotated to provide convenient access to the external pane, helping simplify routine maintenance.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSecurity and Installation Flexibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe FTU-V U3 Electro incorporates the TopSafe system, providing increased resistance to burglary. The combination of its robust construction, security features and electric control makes it a versatile option for modern roof spaces.\n\nThe window is suitable for roof pitches between 15 and 90 degrees and can be installed using standard FAKRO flashing systems. This provides flexibility for different roof designs and installation requirements.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCentre pivot electric roof window\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFactory-fitted three-channel control unit\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e24V DC power supply and ZC 24 servo motor\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eZ-Wave module for compatible electric accessories\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRemote-controlled opening and closing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRemote control can also operate compatible electric accessories\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhite, easy-to-clean polyurethane finish\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThree coats of protective varnish\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAdditional corner guards to protect the timber elements\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncreased moisture resistance for humid environments\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSuitable for kitchens, bathrooms, hotels and hospitals\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEnergy-saving U3 double glazing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOverall window U-value of 1.3 W\/m²K\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGlazing U-value of 1.1 W\/m²K\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eArgon-filled glazing unit\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eToughened external glass\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAcoustic insulation rating of 32dB\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAutomatic V40P air inlet with airflow of up to 49m³\/h\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBuilt-in rain sensor for automatic sash closing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFrame contacts for easy connection of electrical accessories\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCompatible with ARF-E and AJP-E internal accessories and ARZ-E external roller shutters\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEasy connection to a standard 230V mains supply\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncreased burglary resistance with TopSafe system\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSuitable for roof pitches from 15 to 90 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e90-degree handle turn disconnects the sash from the actuator\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard FAKRO flashings\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eAvailable Size Variants\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe FAKRO FTU-V U3 Electro Centre Pivot Z-Wave Roof Window is available in 13 different sizes, giving you flexibility when choosing the right option for your roof space.
