The slats can be rotated to provide natural ventilation, and when fully closed, they offer protection against rain. Some models also offer an open sky by retracting the slats to one side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Nasil_Calisir\"><\/span>How does it work?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The slats rotate between 0-135 degrees with the help of a motor. They are controlled by remote control or smart home systems; automatic positioning can be done with rain and wind sensors. LED lighting and zip blind integration are popular options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bioclimatic_Pergola_Avantajlari\"><\/span>Bioclimatic Pergola Advantages<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Solar control:<\/strong> Shadow and light are adjusted by the angle of the slats.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rain protection:<\/strong> It is waterproof when closed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Natural ventilation:<\/strong> It releases hot air.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Energy-saving:<\/strong> Shading reduces the cooling load.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Durability:<\/strong> Aluminum structures are long-lasting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Nerelerde_Kullanilir\"><\/span>Where is it used?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is commonly applied in cafe and restaurant gardens, hotel terraces, villa and detached house gardens.
