Now that summer is right around the corner, the sun might be heating up your house and making you a little uncomfortable. Before you turn up your AC to full blast, you should consider getting solar shades installed by Awning FX, one of the Hudson Valley’s premier awning and shade experts. Here’s why:

Save on energy bills

When your house is hit by direct sunlight, it can greatly increase the temperatures inside your home. Instead of turning the AC on high and paying the price for it, installing solar blinds can help reduce your cooling bills by blocking out the excess light and decrease the temperature inside. 

UV protection

Have you ever noticed that furniture or objects in front of a window can fade over time? Along with cooling your home, installing solar shades can help protect your valuables from sun damage. These shades reduce the incoming UV rays and keep your home décor looking good.

Keep your view

Other types of blinds or curtains can greatly reduce your visibility outside. Solar shades come in a range of opacity, which allows you to see outside even while the shades are down. If you want to keep more sunlight out of your home, go for a high opacity level.  

The knowledgeable team at Awning FX can help you find and install the right solar shades for your home. Don’t hesitate and contact us today!
