Somfy TaHoma Smart Hub for Home Automation
The Somfy TaHoma Hub is what brings your motorised blinds to life.
While electric blinds can be operated with a remote control, the TaHoma Hub takes things a step further — connecting your blinds to your home, your phone, and your daily routine.
It acts as the bridge between your blinds and your smart devices, allowing you to control them remotely, automate them, and integrate them into a wider smart home system.

What Does a Smart Hub Actually Do?
A smart hub is the central point that allows different devices in your home to communicate with each other.
The TaHoma Hub connects to your internet using Wi-Fi and communicates with your blinds using secure wireless signals.
This means you can:
- Control your blinds from your phone or tablet
- Operate them even when you’re not at home
- Use voice commands through smart speakers
- Set automatic schedules and routines
Without a hub, your blinds are controlled individually. With a hub, they become part of a connected system.
A Home That Works Around You
Imagine leaving the house and realising the sun is now shining directly into your kitchen.
With the TaHoma Hub, you can simply open the app and lower your blinds remotely — wherever you are.
Or picture your morning routine:
Your bedroom blinds gently rise at the same time each day. The kitchen blinds lift before you come downstairs. In the evening, your blinds close automatically to give you privacy.
No rushing. No remembering. Everything just happens when it should.
This is what a smart hub makes possible — not just control, but convenience.
What Can the TaHoma Hub Do?
- Control blinds from anywhere using your smartphone
- Set schedules based on your daily routine
- Create “scenes” for different times of day
- Operate multiple blinds together
- Integrate with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant
For example, you might create a simple “Good Morning” scene that raises blinds throughout your home, or an “Evening” scene that closes everything for privacy.
More Than Just Blinds
The TaHoma Hub is part of a wider smart home system.
It can connect with a large range of compatible products, including lighting, heating, alarms, and more — allowing your home to work together as one.
Using technologies such as io-homecontrol, RTS and Zigbee, the hub can support hundreds of connected devices across multiple leading brands.
This makes it a great starting point if you’re looking to build a smarter, more connected home over time.
Simple Setup, Powerful Control
The TaHoma Hub is compact, discreet, and easy to install.
- Connects via Wi-Fi to your home network
- Plug-in power via USB
- Control via a simple, user-friendly app
It can manage multiple blinds and devices across your home, allowing you to group them by room, function, or routine.
Whether you’re controlling a single room or an entire house, the system is designed to grow with you.
