Enjoy the Sun with New Shades for Sunrooms

There are so many wonderful things that sunlight can do, from boosting our moods to strengthening our bones. It’s an excellent natural resource, and the benefits can be brought home for those lucky enough to have a sunroom. But for all its tremendous qualities, there are also negative attributes to natural sunlight, like UV that can cause sun damage and glare that can make interiors uncomfortable. A thoughtful understanding of the different types of shades for sunrooms can help homeowners craft a custom window fashion that protects them against the negative aspect of sunlight but preserves the things they love about their sunroom, like a warm, welcoming ambiance and a spectacular view out. So come along as we explore our favorite shades for sunrooms, including solar screen shades, banded shades, vinyl shutters, and motorized shades.

Solar Screen Shades

The semi-opaque textiles used in solar screen shades for sunrooms can be both UV protective and see-through. Their fabrics filter out the harmful UV but don’t block the view making them ideal for sunrooms or any sunny room in the home. Designer Solar Shades come in five different fabric opacities plus 130 fabric/color choices allowing homeowners to customize their shades for sunrooms to match their style and meet their requirements when it comes to the amount of light versus the amount of privacy.

Banded Shades

What do you get when you marry a roller shade and a sheer shade? Banded shades are ideal for sunrooms with opaque and semi-transparent fabrics in alternating bands rotating around a streamlined roller unit. Designer Banded Shades by Hunter Douglas allow homeowners to easily capitalize on the view or block it completely and have either small, medium, or large band height for tailored features to suit the individual home decor better.

Vinyl Shutters

Shutters and sunrooms go together like avocados and toast. The louvers on plantation-style shutters tilt with nuanced precision to block direct sunlight but not airflow, the view, or natural illumination. So though protected, sunrooms still feel open and airy even when the shutters are partially closed. Plus, vinyl shutters like Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters have the additional benefit of being engineered to be UV resistant, ensuring the window covering will be able to stand up to prolonged sun exposure without suffering damage.

Motorized Shades

A fabulous feature to upgrade to on your next set of sunroom shades is motorization. Motorization makes shades for sunrooms more convenient to use as well as more efficient with programmable options that can be set in time to the solar rotation in your area. PowerView® Automation is one of the latest motorized operating systems by Hunter Douglas available on Designer Solar Shades, Designer Banded Shades, and Palm Beach Vinyl Shutters.
