Solar Shades

The most efficient way to block the heat of the sun is from the outside – before it has a chance to heat the window glass! Solar shades can block the sun’s heat while still providing visibility to the outside. They pay for themselves year after year in reduced energy costs and protect your furnishings from harmful UV rays that may cause fading. Solar shades are the perfect solution for your sunroom to block heat or add privacy. Fabric is available in a variety of colors weaves and styles.
