Shades like Hunter Douglas Screen Sun Shades offer high quality fabric options to lessen glare, light, sun, and offer UV protection.
Solar Shades are sold based on the amount of UV Rays they let inside your house.
“5% Openness” solar shades means the shade is blocking out 95% of UV Rays. Meanwhile, they also allow 5% percent of UV rays to enter your home. Solar shades are crafted with a specially designed fabric that’s woven just tight enough to protect against UV rays while still giving you a great outdoor view.
Solar shades have an open weave fabric that lets light and air to pass through. During the day you can see out but those walking by can’t see in. But, at night the effect is reversed. If you are not concerned about privacy because you live in a remote area, solar shades might be a good fit for you.
