Will these exterior solar shades stop snow from blowing in?
Asked by Gilbert P ·
Hello Gilbert! It will block some snow, but it will not block all due to the fabric having an openness to it and the fabric is narrower than the tip to tip width. During strong winds and heavy snow, we do not recommend leaving the shades down.

When the shades are down, how much will neighbors be able to see?
Asked by Karen ·
Hi Karen, thank you for your question. Please keep in mind with these solar shades that whatever you are able to see out during the day, that is what a person would be able to see in at night when the lights are on. I would recommend ordering one of our free samples to check out and make sure that this will provide you with the privacy that you are looking for. You will be able to see through these shades to varying degrees depending on the openness you select. Please give us a call at 888-256-8672, option "1" for further details.

I'm located in NJ and need 3 outdoor shades that will attach to the top of my deck's pergola frame. Since we get plenty of rain and snow here, will I be able to easily remove the shades in winter time?
Asked by JoeM ·
Hello Joe, thank you for your question! Yes, I believe that these would be easy enough for you to uninstall for a period in winter. The shade can easily be removed from the brackets, leaving the brackets installed until you are ready to put the shades back up.

what is the best way to clean the shades?
Asked by Ron A ·
Hi Ron, thank you for reaching out! You can dust these shades for light cleaning. Or, to wash your shades, use a cloth, sponge/soft brush, and a mild detergent to clean them. Make sure to use either warm or cold water when washing the shade.

Do these keep out most insects?
Asked by Justin S ·
Hi Justin S., thank you for reaching out! I would definitely say it would help. The fabric on any type of roller shade is going to be narrower than the bracket to bracket width, so that will create a bit of an opening there for them to sneak in.

Do the bottom of the blind have a way to taste then down I'd the bungee is not purchased?
Asked by Rachel ·
Hi Rachel, thank you for your question! Yes, the shade will still stay in the down position without the bungees, it will just not be anchored and may sway some if there is a breeze.
