ROMA and Somfy TaHoma: Smart solution for automated sun shading
With ROMA and Somfy TaHoma, you can easily control your sun shading via app, voice command or automatically. Somfy, the French specialist for drive and control technology, is active in over 60 countries and is one of the world's leading providers in the field of building and home automation. With the TaHoma Smart Home system, almost all areas of your home can be networked wirelessly - from Roller Shutters and External Venetian Blinds to Textile Screens and Garage Doors.
The TaHoma box enables the automation of regularly recurring tasks or convenient control. The sun shading system can also be easily combined with weather sensors, lighting or heating. In this way, your home takes over many processes automatically - and you gain time for the important things in life.
ROMA Somfy TaHoma configuration: modern control with TaHoma Switch
The TaHoma Switch is the latest generation of smart control systems from Somfy. It serves as the central control unit for your connected home—from automated roller shutter control to the integration of lighting, heating, and sensors. It’s easy to operate using scenario buttons right on the box, via voice assistants, or on the go using the Somfy app —even when you’re away from home.
Flexible Installation and Intuitive Operation
The Somfy TaHoma Box connects to your router via Wi-Fi, allowing it to be placed anywhere in your home. Commands are sent via the Internet to the TaHoma Switch and are then relayed from there via radio signal to your ROMA sun protection systems or Garage Doors. Thanks to the clearly structured user interface, it’s easy to use even for beginners.
Whether it’s predefined scenarios, schedules, calendar control, or sensor-based automation: Your smart sun protection system can be customized to meet your specific needs.
Ideally, the initial configuration of Somfy TaHoma should be performed by a ROMA specialist partner. However, with the appropriate technical knowledge, you can also install it yourself—especially when retrofitting existing buildings or rental apartments.
ROMA sun protection systems connect to Somfy TaHoma via proven wireless standards such as io-homecontrol or RTS. Wired motors can also be integrated using on-site switching devices.
