I am installing 3 [5-0/1-6 Milgard vinyl windows 25 ft. up in a clerestory. I need to get a remote opener and I do not know what to buy. Can anyone recommend a brand that is reliable?
Generally I think you remove the crank and fit a remote activated motor on the crank gear base. This is operated by a remote switch.
This system can be simple, nothing fancy needed. It can be hardwired to a switch and can be 110 powered. I don’t need rain sensors or thermostats.

I have a system from http://www.wintrol.com/ on Pozzi awning windows that use the Truth sash lock mechanisim in a 6 window clerestory. It is their basic system, LC-II Control Switch that has two motorized locks. It was rather expensive, $600, but has been reliable for the two years that it has been installed.
