Are you thinking of installing shades in your home and are considering order Solar Shades?
Here are some interesting information that you may not have known about these unique blinds. 

1. THEY CAN PROTECT YOUR FURNITURE

Over time, UV rays can damage your furniture, hardwood floors and even carpets, causing them to fade. Solar shades filter UV light, protecting your furniture and flooring by blocking harmful UV rays while letting in natural light. These blinds will keep your home looking fresh and prolong the investment in your homes appearance. 

2. THEY ARE ANTIMICROBIAL

These blinds are made with high quality polyester and PVC, and aren’t treated with any harsh chemicals so they wont emit chemical smells into your home. The high quality of the fabrics offers protection against odours, stains and mould. This antimicrobial technology helps keep your blinds looking great for longer and reduces the transmission of germs in your home - something that's more important to us today than ever before.

3. COMPLETE CONTROL OVER PASSAGE OF LIGHT

You can control exactly how much light you want to let into your room by choosing the light factor of your fabrics. Shades with a factor of 1% will block the most UV rays and let in the least light. But you can also opt for a 10% light factor to let in more light while still blocking out a large proportion of harmful UV rays.

4. SOLAR SHADES ELIMINATE GLARE

How many times have you had to deal with sun glare on your TV or computer screen? When using their screens, most people simply block out all the light in the room. But thanks to solar blankets, this isn't necessary. You can continue to enjoy natural light while eliminating reflections on your screens because they block out excessively bright light and UV rays.

5. VERSATILE FABRICS AND PRIVACY SCREENS

Whatever the style of your room, you're sure to find the right colour and texture from our collection. From basic neutrals to deep shades, there's something for every style and design choice. Solar shades are unique in that they are daytime privacy screens that allow those inside the home to see outside while maintaining privacy. However the effect is reversed at night, something to keep in mind for windows where night time privacy is a must. 

6. COMPATIBLE WITH MOTORIZATION

All of our solar shades can be fitted with a motorized lift control. Not only are motorized blinds safer for children and pets, they're also much easier to operate if they're fitted to hard-to-reach windows. You can choose between a remote-controlled mechanism or our Smart Wifi Controller system, which uses the latest voice-activation technology.

7. THEY REDUCE HEAT

If you have cathedral-style windows, you know about all the light they let into your home. It also means a lot of heat in the hottest months of the year... and the need to run your air conditioning at full blast. Instead of wasting so much energy, you can use this type of shade to let in a little light while blocking out excessive heat and UV rays. Since they block Uv rays so effectively Solar shades are great for reducing the heat from hot sunny days.
