PowerView® Motorization

Hunter Douglas PowerView® transforms your window treatments into intelligent home automation.

No more walking room-to-room adjusting blinds—PowerView® handles it all, beautifully and silently.

PowerView® Motorization

The Future of Window Treatments

PowerView® is Hunter Douglas's premium motorization system, designed specifically for window treatments. Unlike generic motors retrofitted to shades, PowerView® is engineered from the ground up for precise, quiet, reliable operation. Every component—motors, batteries, hubs, and software—is optimized to work together seamlessly.

But PowerView® is more than motors. It's a complete automation platform that integrates with your smart home. Create scenes that adjust multiple shades with one command. Schedule shades to rise with sunrise and lower at sunset. Control everything from anywhere through the PowerView® app—whether you're on the couch or across the world.

  • Whisper-quiet motor operation
  • PowerView® app for iOS and Android
  • Voice control via Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, Siri
  • Scheduled scenes and sunrise/sunset automation
  • Rechargeable battery packs or hardwired power
  • Works with virtually all Hunter Douglas products

The Future of Window Treatments

Multiple Ways to Control Your Shades

PowerView® gives you flexibility in how you control your shades. Use the free app for detailed control and scheduling. Ask Alexa or Google to adjust shades by voice. Tap a Pebble® remote on your nightstand. Press a wall-mounted scene controller. Or let scheduled automations handle everything hands-free.

Many customers use all these methods depending on the situation—voice commands when your hands are full, the app for detailed adjustments, physical remotes for guests, and schedules for daily routines. PowerView® accommodates your lifestyle rather than forcing you to adapt.

Multiple Ways to Control Your Shades

Scenes and Scheduled Automation

PowerView® scenes let you save shade positions and recall them instantly. Create a "Morning" scene that raises bedroom shades and lowers living room shades against eastern sun. Create an "Evening" scene that lowers all shades for privacy at dusk. Activate scenes with one tap, one voice command, or automatically on schedule.

Scheduled automation is where PowerView® truly shines. Set shades to adjust based on time of day, sunrise, or sunset. The system automatically calculates sunrise/sunset times for your location and adjusts throughout the year. You can even set shades to make random adjustments while you're on vacation for a lived-in appearance.

  • Unlimited custom scenes with any shade positions
  • Sunrise and sunset scheduling that adjusts seasonally
  • Time-based schedules by day of week
  • Vacation mode for random occupied-home appearance
  • Room and zone grouping for easy management
  • Scene activation via app, voice, or remote

Common Questions

Typical use (2-3 adjustments per day) yields 6-12 months between charges. Heavy use or very large shades may require more frequent charging. The app monitors battery levels and alerts you when it's time to recharge. Recharging takes about 6 hours.
Some existing Hunter Douglas shades can be retrofitted with PowerView® motors. However, many shades—especially older models—require replacement to add motorization. During your consultation, we'll assess your existing shades and recommend the best path forward.
Yes—the PowerView® Hub is required for app control, scheduling, and smart home integration. Without the hub, motorized shades can still be controlled via Pebble® remote or wall switch, but you won't have access to smart features. The hub connects to your home WiFi router via Ethernet cable.
Hardwired power eliminates battery maintenance and provides unlimited operational power. It's highly recommended for hard-to-reach shades, skylights, large or heavy shades that drain batteries faster, and new construction where wiring is easy. For accessible shades in existing homes, rechargeable batteries work well.
Yes—PowerView® operates locally on your home network. Scheduled scenes continue running even without internet. However, remote access (controlling shades when away from home) and voice assistant integration require internet connectivity.
