As the warm weather turns cooler, we tend to spend more and more times at home, indoors. So, make your home interiors more comfortable and practical with solar screen shades so that the increased time spent at home is done so in a comfortable environment. Solar screen shade block glare (making monitors easier to read), help control indoor temperatures (keeping your home comfortable day and night) and create interior illumination that is easy on the eyes and the wallet.

2. Protection

Solar screen shades provide protection for your home from the harmful UV rays in natural sunlight. In rooms like patios or sunrooms that have a high degree of exposure to natural light the danger for damage to items in those room is increased. Furniture, artwork, and décor can suffer warping, cracking, peeling, or discoloration from UV exposure. Solar screen shades provide protection by blocking UV while allowing the less harmful sunrays penetrate the home for soft, safe light. Select styles of Hunter Douglas Designer Screen Shades can block up to 99% of the harmful UV rays trying to enter your home.

3. Energy Control

Widow coverings are a key part of controlling indoor temperatures because exposed windowpanes allow for uncontrolled energy exchange. Solar shades offer versatility allowing homeowners to block sun when days are hot or allow sunlight when days are cooler, optimizing the energy efficiency for the transitional weather of fall. Therefore, solar screen shades help maintain a more comfortable and consistent indoor temperature, so homeowners need to utilize less artificial heating or cooling, adding to the overall energy efficiency of the home.
