Solar Shades 101

by Linda Palm August 11, 2022August 11, 2022
written by Linda Palm August 11, 2022August 11, 2022

Want the shade trifecta of UV-protection, daytime privacy, and a view? Solar shades are your answer.

Solar window shades are roller shades crafted with a specially designed fabric that’s woven just tight enough to protect against UV rays while still optimizing your view and reducing heat gain. They’ll also prevent sunlight from damaging your upholstery, carpet, hardwood floors and artwork.

Today’s solar shades are available in a range of designs, colors, and opacities, giving you lots of choices to complement your décor. As you consider your options, keep the following in mind.

Openness: Openness refers to how tightly solar shade fabric is woven. The lower the openness level and the tighter the fabric weave, the better it blocks the sun— but the less you can see through the shades. The higher the openness level, the looser the weave—and the less the fabric blocks the light. However, a higher openness level gives you better visibility to the outdoors.

Privacy: The higher the openness level, the better you can see through the fabric, while maintaining your privacy.

Color: When it comes to solar shades and fabric color, you’ll find that lighter colors better reflect heat and illuminate a room. Dark colors, on the other hand, are excellent at reducing glare and providing better view-through.

If you are considering home renovations or remodeling this summer, make sure to visit Window to Design online at windowtodesign.com to schedule a preliminary one-hour consultation, free of charge, or call Linda Palm at (480) 207-6450.
