Protect Your Home from Harsh Sun with Vertical Sunshades

As a proud Washington homeowner, your top priority is ensuring your home’s value increases over time. While you can do many projects and install various products inside your home to accomplish this, protecting your home from damaging sunrays is one of the most effective. You can find sunshades in horizontal and vertical orientations, but the vertical shades benefit those large, picturesque windows and stunning sliding glass and French doors.

Our Eagle Harbor Window Coverings team can discuss the benefits of vertical sunshades, including our most popular choice from Hunter Douglas.

The Benefits of Vertical Sunshades

There are several advantages you and your home can enjoy when you invest in vertical sunshades, including:

  • Protection: Sunshades provide a buffer between the sun and your home, so your furnishings, carpet, and artwork won’t get damaged. Over time, this protection can help you save money because you won’t have to replace your belongings frequently.
  • Insulation: Vertical sunshades offer superior insulating properties for large and multiple small windows in a home. Solar heat is intense, and without sunshades, it enters your home, causing it to overheat, thus increasing your energy consumption.
  • Comfort: Along with protection and insulation, vertical sunshades offer interior comfort by reducing glare and regulating the indoor temperature so you, your family, and your guests are happy and relaxed.
