    Solar Shade on studio style sunroom by Betterliving of Pittsburgh

    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. Fabric is available in a wide variety of colors, weaves, and styles. Motorized options allow flexibility of controlling multiple units with one remote, and to set the amount of window opening.

    Solar Shades

    Horizontal Shades are unique shading solutions that are pulled from the side to create retractable privacy and sun protection. While most shade products protect from the overhead sun, these side shades block the harsh rays of the angled morning or evening sun. They'll also block a slight breeze.

    Canopies and pergola picture by betterliving of pittsburgh

    Ideal to cover verandas, terraces and roof gardens, retractable canopies can provide shade around your pool and provide the atmosphere you need for outdoor entertaining. These unique structures can be installed free standing or mounted to a home, pool house or other outdoor structure. Get more from your existing pergola – with a canopy system from Betterliving. Adding an under-pergola canopy greatly increases the shade they provide.

    Patio covers picture by betterliving of pittsburgh

    Enjoy added living space filled with fresh air underneath an insulated porch or patio cover. Sudden showers won’t spoil your picnics, the heat of the sun won’t drive you back  inside, and snow and rain won’t ruin your outdoor furnitur.

    When placed over your driveway, the same insulated cover can be used as a carport to  shelter your vehicle from the elements and protect you and your family. Carports are an economical alternative to a garage addition.
