Current Luxury Helux™ Solar Motorized Market Umbrella

Control Your Shade from Anywhere with This Solar-Powered Motorized Umbrella

Running outside every time the wind picks up gets old fast. The Helux™ Solar Motorized Umbrella handles weather changes automatically while you control everything from your phone, voice assistant, or the built-in button—no cords, no cranking, no outlets needed.

Picture your poolside service area on a busy afternoon. Dark clouds roll in from nowhere. Before you even notice, your umbrellas have already closed themselves. Once the squall passes ten minutes later, you reopen all five umbrellas from your phone inside the office without interrupting service or sending staff outside.

That's the difference between traditional manual umbrellas and a system designed for real-world property management.

Who Benefits Most from a Motorized Umbrella System

How Solar Power Eliminates Traditional Motorized Umbrella Hassles

Traditional motorized patio umbrellas require either constant battery replacements or permanent electrical wiring that limits where you can place them.

The Helux™ system uses integrated solar panels in the canopy hub to continuously charge a lithium-ion battery throughout daylight hours. This patented solar technology powers both the motor and the LED lighting system without external charging under normal use.

The battery stores enough energy to operate the umbrella even on overcast days, with the option to use the included AC adapter during extended periods of limited sunlight. We recommend 6-8 hours of charging time when using the AC adapter to ensure complete battery replenishment.

The WiFi-enabled motor connects to your property network, giving you multiple control options:

• Push the button on the motor housing — Immediate response for staff or guests at the umbrella
• Use the Current Luxury app — Remote access from anywhere on your property or around the world
• Integrate with Alexa or Google Home — Voice control for hands-free operation
• Connect to third-party automation systems — Coordinated property management for multiple umbrellas
• Remote control included — Alternative to app-based control for those who prefer physical remotes

Smart Weather Protection That Works Without You

High winds represent the most common cause of umbrella damage.

The Helux™ auto-close system monitors wind conditions and closes the canopy automatically when it detects inclement weather patterns. This means your umbrella protects itself even when you're away from the property or occupied with other tasks.

The system's wind sensors work in the background, so you don't need to monitor weather forecasts or rush outside when conditions change. Once weather stabilizes, you can reopen the umbrella from your phone without going outside.

Integrated LED Lighting Extends Usable Hours into Evening

The LED lights are fully integrated with the solar recharging system for power. Your Helux includes a light pod and light shroud. To operate, you must first open your umbrella, then press on the light shroud to control the lights.

There are five light levels to find the perfect light source. The lighting system includes an automatic function—if left on for 3.5 hours, it will turn off to preserve the battery life. Where longer lighting needs are necessary, we recommend purchasing additional battery modules.

The system offers both upper and lower LED lighting for comprehensive illumination, and you can control the LED lighting through the app just like you control the umbrella opening and closing.

Features That Make Every Outdoor Hour More Comfortable

• 12 OUTDURA® fabric colors or 7 yarn-dyed polyester options — Find the exact shade to match your property's aesthetic

Installation and Base Requirements for Motorized Umbrellas

The Helux™ motorized umbrella requires a separate base for stability. Current Luxury offers bases in 28-pound, 55-pound, and 110-pound configurations to match your umbrella size and wind conditions.

The umbrella can be installed through a compatible table using the included table support hardware, or used with a freestanding base anywhere on your property. Setup typically takes under an hour with basic tools.

Installation Process:

1. The fine-thread base pole screws into the base clockwise until secure
2. The coarse-thread canopy pole connects to the base pole via a pin-and-slot system
3. Lock the assembly together using the included hardware

The included installation guide provides step-by-step instructions, and the Resorts Depot support team at (888) 883-7568 can answer technical questions during installation.

Proof of Commercial-Grade Engineering

• Designed and manufactured in Pensacola, Florida, USA — Current Luxury maintains quality control throughout the production process
• 3-year warranty — Covers all internal mechanisms and components against defects in materials and workmanship
• 10-year warranty on OUTDURA® fabric — Solution-dyed acrylic carries a 10-year warranty against UV damage and fading
• 5-year warranty on yarn-dyed polyester option — Extended coverage reflects durability standards required for commercial hospitality applications

These warranty terms back up the engineering with real protection. The ½-inch diameter fiberglass ribs provide enhanced wind resistance compared to standard aluminum or fiberglass alternatives. This construction method is the same used in commercial-grade beach umbrellas and resort installations where reliability cannot be compromised.

Frequently Asked Questions About Motorized Umbrellas

How long does the battery last on a full charge?

Under normal use with adequate sunlight exposure, the solar panels continuously recharge the battery throughout the day, providing power for daily opening and closing operations plus LED lighting in the evening. During extended periods of limited sunlight, you can use the included AC adapter to charge the battery module. Current Luxury recommends 6-8 hours of charging time when using the AC adapter.

Will the auto-close system damage the umbrella or close too frequently?

The wind detection system is calibrated to respond to genuinely hazardous conditions, not every breeze. The system monitors sustained wind patterns rather than momentary gusts, closing only when conditions could actually damage the umbrella or create safety concerns. You can reopen the umbrella from your phone or the motor button once conditions stabilize.

Can I control multiple umbrellas together through the app?

The Current Luxury app allows you to add multiple devices to your account and control them individually or group them together for synchronized operation. This makes it practical to manage several umbrellas across a large property or commercial installation from a single interface. The app also integrates with third-party automation systems for properties using centralized building management platforms.

What happens if the WiFi connection is lost?

The umbrella continues to function through the manual button on the motor housing even without WiFi connectivity. The auto-close weather detection system operates independently of the network connection, protecting the umbrella regardless of your internet status. Once WiFi is restored, app control and smart home integration resume automatically without requiring any reset procedures.

How difficult is it to replace the canopy fabric when needed?

The canopy fabric is designed for eventual replacement after years of use, though the 10-year warranty on OUTDURA® fabric means replacement is typically unnecessary for a decade in residential applications. When replacement becomes necessary, the process involves disconnecting the canopy from the rib assembly and installing new fabric. Current Luxury can provide replacement canopies and guidance for the replacement process, or you can work with a local installer familiar with commercial umbrella systems.

Does this umbrella work with tables not made by Current Luxury?

The umbrella can be installed through compatible tables using the included table support hardware. However, the warranty does not cover chafing of the umbrella rod when inserted in a non-Current Luxury table. For optimal performance and full warranty coverage, we recommend using a Current Luxury Helux Table, which is specifically designed to integrate seamlessly with the umbrella's pedestal design.
