Solar shade questions.
What openness should I choose?
It depends on how much sun you get, how much view you want, and how much privacy you need. 1% to 3% cuts more glare. 5% to 10% keeps more view and brightness. We'll help you decide at your estimate.
Do solar shades give privacy at night?
Not fully. At night, when your lights are brighter than outside, people can see in. For privacy after dark, choose blackout for that room.
Can I have solar and blackout on the same window?
Yes, if your window has room for both. We check the depth when we measure and tell you what fits.
Do they protect floors and furniture?
Yes. Solar fabrics block up to 99% of UV rays, depending on the fabric and openness, which helps slow fading.
Are they good for working from home?
Yes. Cutting screen glare is one of the main reasons NYC customers choose solar shades for home offices.
Inside mount or outside mount?
Inside mount looks clean and built-in when the window has enough depth. Outside mount gives better coverage or works with shallow trim. We'll advise when we measure.
How do I clean them?
Dust regularly with a microfiber duster or a vacuum brush. Spot-clean gently with mild soap and water, and avoid harsh chemicals.
What's included in the free estimate?
A visit to your home, fabric samples, and professional measurements. No obligation.
How does installation work?
After you approve the quote, we schedule a return visit to install. Installation is a flat $189 for up to 10 shades.
