While solar shades are beloved for their unique ability to both block sun and glare while still letting you see through to your view outside, they can sometimes lack in designer appeal. Introducing our Premium Textured Solar Shades collection to give you more decorative options while keeping all the energy efficient functionality solar shades are known for.  The 3% openness rating of all the fabrics in this assortment provide the perfect balance of light blocking and visibility through the shade. We also incorporated a variety of lift options depending on your needs and preference, including a premium cordless option – unlike other roller style shades that need a slight pull downward before raising the shade, this cordless system just glides up or down with no fuss. You'll love the look and your view – without the bright sun!

Get to know this shade:

• Solar screen shade fabric is 100% polyester (no PVC), and all styles have a 3% openness factor (blocking 97% of light and UV rays)
• Three convenient lift options to choose from – beaded chain loop, cordless, or motorized operation
• Brackets, hem bar and other hardware come in one of three colors coordinated to the fabric color (beaded chain will be one of eight colors)

Why you'll love this shade:

• 3% fabric "openness" blocks 97% of light and UV rays to reduce heat gain from direct sun and protect your furnishings from fading
• Cordless lift option is certified Best for Kids™ for safe usage with small children and easily raises with no special pulling or fiddling
• One 30" operating pole is sent with every cordless shades order to help reach shades in taller windows
• Add an optional 4 1/2" fabric-wrapped fascia valance for a "complete" look and to cover the roller tube and brackets

Key considerations:

• Solar shades do not provide nighttime privacy – a lit room is visible through the shade from the outside
• Pair with curtains or another window treatment if nighttime privacy is needed
• The fabric width will be up to 1 1/2" narrower (3/4" on each side) than ordered width due to the brackets and operating mechanisms at the top of the shade
