Prevent Sun Damage with Solar Shades


  


We all know that the sun is pretty intense here in Colorado due to the altitude and new home designs frequently include larger windows so we can enjoy the beautiful views that the Rocky Mountains provide. The combination of intense sun and large windows can wreak havoc on your furniture, floors and walls of your home. Fading and material degradation can happen over time when the sun comes pouring through your windows on a daily basis. You don't want to block out those stunning vistas but the interior of your home is taking a beating. What can you do? Your best bet is to prevent sun damage with solar shades.

Screen Shades

Screen shades provide the most outdoor visibility while protecting your indoor furnishing from harmful UV sun rays. Screen shades are the most sheer protection available. One factor that should be considered however, is the issue of privacy. Screen shades alone do not provide optimum privacy but layered with more opaque window coverings can be a great option for maximum outdoor visibility during the day with added privacy at night.

These screen shades also come with a smart-remote that can be automatically set by your phone to lower and raise according to desired times.

Solar Roller Shades

Another great option are the dual fabric roller shades. The sheer fabric can be used during the day to bring the outside in while protecting your furnishings from UV rays.  The opaque lining can be used for ultimate privacy or to darken a room. A perfect all-in-one shade!

Banded Shades

Another fashionable way to protect your indoor furnishing is with Banded Shades. Banded Shades are very versatile, providing the desired amount of light and view. Banded Shades are both roller shade and sheers, allowing for maximum light/privacy flexibility.
