Keep the view, lose the glare
Solar screen is a woven fabric with tiny openings. From inside, you can still see out. The fabric cuts the glare on your TV and screens and softens the harsh afternoon sun.
Made for hot afternoons
Summer afternoons in the San Gabriel Valley regularly top 90 degrees, and west-facing windows take the worst of it. A solar shade stops much of that sun at the glass, before it reaches your floors and furniture.
Pick how see-through you want it
Solar fabrics come in different openness levels. A more open weave gives a clearer view; a tighter weave gives more privacy and blocks more sun. We bring samples so you can compare them in your own light.

Solar Shades: questions
Can people see in at night?+
At night, when your lights are on, solar shades are see-through from outside. For rooms that need night privacy, many homeowners pick light-filtering or blackout fabric instead, or use each in different rooms.
Do solar shades lower my cooling bill?+
They stop much of the sun’s heat before it enters the room, which helps the room stay cooler. How much you save depends on your home, so we do not promise a number.
How much do solar shades cost?+
They fall in our roller range of about $430 to $650 per window, installed.
