Question:
Is it possible to fit this solar awning blind onto a window which already has a VELUX KSX 100K kit installed?
Answer:
Yes, it is possible to fit a VELUX MSL MK04 Solar Awning Blind to a window that already has a VELUX KSX 100K solar conversion kit installed. However, please note that VELUX specifically states that for windows upgraded with the KSX 100K, the installation of a solar awning blind (MSL-VA/MSL) is only possible when the adaptor plate kit ZOZ 213K is installed. You may need to acquire this adaptor plate kit if it's not already installed on your window. Please reach out to the sales team for further assistance.
Question:
What's the difference between MML and MSL
Answer:
The difference between the MML and MSL variants of the VELUX Awning Blinds lies in their operation. The MML variant is an Electric Awning Blind, which means it's operated using electricity. On the other hand, the MSL variant is a Solar Awning Blind, meaning it's powered by solar energy. Both variants are designed to offer the same functionality and quality, just with different methods of operation. If you need further information or assistance, we recommend contacting our technical team or the supplier directly.
Question:
How are these blinds cleaned and can birds damage them?
Answer:
The VELUX MSL MK04 Solar Awning Blind - Black Net is designed to be durable and withstand different weather conditions. However, like any outdoor product, it could potentially be damaged by birds, though this is not a common issue reported by our customers. In terms of cleaning, it's recommended to gently clean the blind with a soft brush to remove dust or debris. It's important not to use harsh cleaning chemicals or abrasive materials as they can damage the fabric and mechanism of the blind. Please note that for more specific care instructions or concerns about bird damage, it might be best to consult VELUX directly or refer to the product's user guide.
Question:
is this the solar powered blind?
Answer:
Yes, the VELUX MSL SK06 Solar Awning Blind - Black Net (5060) 114cm x 118cm is indeed a solar-powered blind. It operates using solar power which makes it an energy-efficient choice for controlling the amount of sunlight entering your space.
Question:
can these awnings be retrofitted to a compatible velux installation or do they need to be installed during window install?
Answer:
The VELUX MSL MK06 Solar Awning Blind can certainly be retrofitted to a compatible VELUX installation. It doesn't necessarily need to be installed during the window installation. To help with the installation process, you may find the Installation Guide useful. You can access it here: Installation Guide. Please make sure your VELUX window is compatible with the blind before proceeding with the installation.
Question:
What is the structure opening
Answer:
The product you are referring to is the external awning blind, not the window itself.
VELUX guidance for structural openings is:
Width: External frame width + 20–30 mm
Height: External frame height + 45 mm (standard installation) or + 145 mm (for deeper installations)
the structural opening for a VELUX CK04 window does not change when you add an electric external awning
Question:
ARE THESE BLINDS SOLAR POWERED ?
Answer:
Yes they are solar-powered - no need for any wiring
Question:
Hi I sorted out that this should be OK for my Velux GGL 606 3000 on th e Velux site - but the code number of the blind itself has an S on the end - so it is MML SK06 5060S - is this significant or not? Yours Sincerely
Answer:
This Blind is the same one, we just have the S omitted on this listing but if ordered the MML SK06 5060S is what we would be ordering direct from Velux for you.
Question:
Does this come with the control or do you buy it seperate? I have 4 in a exstention Next to each other can I control off one control?
Answer:
These would come with a control each, if you wanted to work off one control you would need to purchase the Velux active kit which allows you to operate the items from an app on your phone.

Question:
Hi - does this product fit with a GGU U08 window?
Answer:
No, for a U08 window you would need an item with the code U08, if you email your requirements into sales@roofingsuperstore.co.uk we can put together a quote for you.
