A: Since 2000, Teal Products Ltd have been a leading provider across the UK of manual and electric window control systems, covering all areas including: natural ventilation, smoke control, window automation and manual window control.
A. A window opener is also known as window actuator. An actuator is a component responsible for achieving physical movements or controlling a mechanism/system. As a result, this converts energy, manual or electrical, into linear or rotary motion to open and close a window.

A. Manual window openers enable hard to reach individual or multiple windows, to be opened or closed from a single operating mechanism. Manual window openers are determined by the fact these actuators require a manual and physical motion from a fixed point to open and close a window. Our range of manual window openers have been fundamental applications in commercial settings such as museums, schools and libraries.
A. Suited for high level, difficult to access windows, manual window actuators are controlled by a cable driven system operating a chain or screwjack opener and is controlled by a fixed rotating handle in a convenient location so you can easily open and close the window. The connecting cable will be covered in conduit to hide wiring and can be placed around obstacles and pillars to provide full flexibility on the positioning of your handle.
A. Electric window openers are similar to manual window openers however they are distinguished by the fact they are operated remotely. A sensor, button or pre-set configuration activates the motor which powers the opening mechanism of the actuator. These actuators vary from the setting they are used in and you can find more information on the functions of electric window openers in this handy blog post
A. Electric window openers can be operated via remote controls to avoid the need to manually operate an actuator. This can be achieved via a remote control or programmed on timers which be set to open and close the high-level vents at desired times of day to provide ventilation to your building.
In addition to this, electric window openers can be operated by a range of inputs such as rain, wind and CO2 sensors which are linked up to control units for full automation purposes and added peace of mind.
