POWERVIEW® AUTOMATION
Experience light exactly when you want it. Completely redesigned in 2022, PowerView Automation gives you precise and convenient control of your Hunter Douglas window treatments. Shades operate independently, moving only when you choose to schedule them.
Programming your window treatments is simple. Operate them from home with the Pebble® Remote Control or through voice activation when PowerView is integrated with smart-home systems such as Amazon Alexa, Siri® on your Apple device, or Google Assistant. For ultimate convenience, the PowerView App is a perfect way to manage your shades when you’re home or away.
Why Smart Shades?
Added Convenience
Easily automatically control shades with the press of a button press, tap of your mobile device, or even a voice command when integrated with a compatible smart-home systems.
Increased Privacy and Security
Schedule shades to automatically open/close whenever you want. Easily give your home a lived-in look while you're away.
Better Energy Efficiency
Modify the schedule for shades to raise and lower strategically. This helps to block harsh summer rays, preventing interior heat buildup, and can also minimize heat loss during the winter.
Safer for Children
Smart shades lack lift cords, making them a safer option than shades with exposed cords.
Easy and Accurate Shade Control
Thanks to Bluetooth technology, which allows for real-time, two-way communication between your shades and the PowerView system, your PowerView shades will always be exactly where you want them.
Get the App
Use the PowerView App to control your shades with the touch of a finger. Easily activate pre-set or customized Scenes that move each of your shades to your preferred positions, then schedule those scenes to operate on their own throughout the day. You can even schedule scenes to move with the sunrise or sunset.
The App is compatible with Apple and Android smartphones and tablets.
Powerview Pebble® Remote
The handheld Pebble Remote is the modern answer to clunky remote controls of the past. It easily operates up to six groups of window treatments, provides on-demand control, and comes in a range of colors. If you're worried about misplacing it, go for the wall-mounted remote. PowerView also offers additional control options and accessories that fit your every need.
Battery Power Makes it Easy
For easy installation, operation and maintenance, most PowerView systems are battery-powered, and can include our environmentally friendly Rechargeable Battery Wand.

HOME AUTOMATION
Want to save energy on hot, sunny days? A home-automation system can detect a temperature increase with your thermostat. In response, the system will close your shades and switch the lights off to keep heat out and save energy.
Want an added level of security? The same system can close your shades, lock the doors, and arm the security system when you say, “Alexa, it’s bedtime.”
Because each home-automation system is different, we’ve detailed the specific guidelines and requirements below to make syncing with PowerView straightforward and stress-free.
VOICE CONTROL
Operating your PowerView shades just got even easier. Use Siri on your iPhone, iPad or HomePod™ to operate individual shades or Scenes hands-free. Voice-activate your Scenes using Amazon Alexa or the Google Assistant. Keep reading to learn how:
Activate PowerView shades or scenes with a simple voice command. Try saying, “Alexa, open Bedroom Left,” or “Alexa, close Living Room.”
Enable this feature directly in the PowerView App. Please note: A PowerView Gateway is required to integrate with Amazon Alexa.
Apple Home compatibility is on the way, stay tuned!
Google Assistant, powered by Google Home, makes it easy to control shades individually or through scenes. Plus, Google Home distinguishes your voice from others in your home, creating an even more personalized experience. Try saying, “ Google, tilt sun room to 25 percent,” “ Google, open bedroom left,” or “Hey, Google, close the shades.” Please note: In order to enable Google Assistant, you'll need a PowerView Gateway and a device enabled with the Google Assistant connected to your Google account.

"EcoNize was great value for the price, fast and had great customer service. Meg, AJ, Steve and the rest of the team were so responsive, got creative with a nonstandard space and made sure the unit looked great from all angles. We love our new built-ins!”
