FAQ's

  • What are the electrical requirements for Awaken?

    The lighting, projection, and shade operation on Awaken units are powered by 120VAC, and the installation procedures are subject to local electrical code requirements.


  • Do I need an electrician to install and replace an Awaken Skylight?

    Yes. In order to install an Awaken skylight you’ll need an electrician to wire 120V AC power to the unit. This will be converted to 24V DC within the unit which is low voltage so all components within the unit can be replaced without an electrician in most states. Just note that some states require low voltage certification for replacement of low voltage components.


  • Do I have to use the Marvin Home app?

    You don’t need to use the Marvin Home app; however, you will be missing out if you don’t! You can control your Awaken skylight by using the physical control switch which will allow you to: open/close the skylight, control LED brightness, and open/close the shades. The app will provide you with more fine-tuning control, such as LED color temperature adjustment, access to preset Modes and ability to automate your skylight to fit your daily schedule.


  • How do I add users to my Home?

    You’ll be able to add users to your Home during the app set-up. Once you are logged in, you’ll also be able to do that by tapping on the + Add button at the top of the home screen or by navigating to the Settings > Household section.

    Go to Settings>Edit Household in order to add or remove users from your Home. Only admins can access or edit other household members and there can only be 1 admin per home. If preferred, as an admin you can also transfer ownership of a home to another user.
