Hello everyone!
Unfortunately, I couldn’t find anything suitable using the search function.
There is one topic I’m really curious about:
We are still quite early in the house-building process and have differing opinions regarding shutters and air drafts.
From your experience, can you say that manually operated shutters let in cold air, while electric ones do not?
Some people swear by electric shutters because manual ones let cold air through in winter, but I’ve also heard that electric shutters can have a short lifespan. Our home advisor says both types have their pros and cons.
I would love to hear about your experiences.
Thank you very much!

Regarding durability: In the past, my father regularly replaced belts due to wear. Currently, my brother still occasionally gets annoyed by the old and quite worn crank handle drives on his roller shutters. By now, my father has converted most of his roller shutters to electric drives. He has even replaced a motor once – after about 10 years of service.
