I have windows that get pounded by the sun (we live in TX) and the temp of the room goes up because of it. I love the idea of the solar windows & realize you can see through them, but how much of the heat do that block out when being hit with direct sunlight? Can you feel a difference?
Asked by Connie S ·
Thank you so much for your interest! Solar shades are specifically designed to block the light, glare and heat/cold transfer from outside. The amount blocked is a direct result of the openness selected. 1% blocks 99% of light/glare and a proportionate amount of heat, 3% blocks 97%, etc. The big advantage is that they block glare, light & heat but still allow you to maintain your view. If you don't need to maintain your view then there are other products that do a little better job of blocking heat/cold. Please call one of our sales agents at 888-256-8672, option 1 for sales.

Do solar shades provide air flow? Or do you need to raise them to get a breeze? We were planning to put them in a sunroom .
Asked by Karen ·
Thank you so much for your interest! There will be a slight air flow. You will need to raise them to get a breeze.

have you ever installed the cordless version of these upside down, with some sort of added cord or something, so that you can oull these closed from the bottom up (but don't need them to ever pull closed from the top down)
Asked by Niki ·
Thank you for your interest! Unfortunately, I don't believe the cordless mechanism would work upside down even if you could figure out a way to raise it. There is a mechanism that allows this on the market but I don't have a factory that does it. You would need to go to a commercial specialist to find the option. Please call one of our sales associates at 888-256-8672, option 1 for sales for more information.
