Ventilating during the summer heat
The summer of 2025 is making itself felt: the Netherlands is experiencing tropical temperatures of over 35°C, and the National Heat Plan is in force in several provinces. In these conditions, good ventilation is essential — for your comfort, health and home. But how do you ventilate effectively if your home has a flat roof? The answer: with an electric ventilating flat roof window from Intura.
Why ventilation is essential in the summer heat
As soon as it gets warm outside, the temperature and humidity inside also rise. Combined with insufficient air circulation, this leads to:
Build-up of moisture and CO₂
A stuffy indoor climate
Fatigue, loss of concentration and poor sleep
Mould growth in wet areas
In many modern homes — especially in extensions, kitchens and bathrooms with flat roofs — natural ventilation is limited. This is exactly where Intura offers an innovative solution.
The power of an electrically ventilated flat roof window
Intura develops daylight solutions with an eye for design, comfort and functionality. Our electrically ventilated flat roof windows are equipped with a powerful motor, rain sensor and can be optionally connected to smart home automation.
Advantages at a glance:
✔ Smart ventilation, automatically controlled
The window opens and closes based on time, temperature or CO₂ levels – ideal during warm summer nights or cool mornings.
✔ Weatherproof and safe
Thanks to the integrated rain sensor, the window closes automatically when it rains. So you don't have to worry when you're not at home.
✔ More daylight and better air quality
The window not only provides ventilation, but also brings in abundant natural daylight – exactly what Intura stands for.
✔ Perfect for hard-to-reach places
Above a kitchen island or in a high extension, you can easily operate the window with a remote control or app.
Practical ventilation tips for hot days
Make the most of natural ventilation without heating up your home:
Time | Action with flat roof window | Objective |
|---|---|---|
| Early morning | Open for fresh air | Actively cool the house |
| Midday | Keep closed, use sun blinds | Keep the heat out |
| Late in the evening | Ventilate briefly | Disperse heat, refresh the air |
Intura's flat roof windows are designed to make this ventilation process as efficient and comfortable as possible.
