Sunroom Window Treatments That Tame Dallas Sun
Depending on the direction of where your glass-walled Dallas sunroom faces the sun, light doesn’t exactly ease in: It floods the space for hours. While some sun is lovely, too much canbake your cushions, bleach hardwood, and make it too hot or sunny to enjoy the space.
But our experts at Covered Creations know Hunter Douglas solutions to solve those problems beautifully, so you can relax in comfort.
Ready to tame that Dallas sun and start making the most of your sunroom? First, we’ll look at our top choice: solar shades.
Known as Screen Shades, Solar Shades Cut Glare Without Losing the View
Hunter Douglas Designer Solar Shades are built for rooms that get excessive light and where you still want to enjoy your views out—sunrooms fit the bill. Also known as screen shades, they are made with a fabric mesh that sits close to the frame and leaving minimal light gaps even when the sun drops low in late afternoon.
The built-in UV protection is a key feature here; it prevents upholstery, rugs, and wood flooring from bleaching out after months of direct sun exposure. Arched and bay windows, common in new and old Dallas homes, are covered, too, since Designer Solar Shades come in specialty shapes.
Five fabric opacities give Designer Solar Shades room to work in multiple spots in a sunroom. For instance, a lighter weave preserves the outdoor view for a reading nook, while a denser weave blocks more heat on a wall facing west, where afternoon sun hits hardest. With more than 180 fabric and color combinations available, matching a shade to your decor is simple. And homeowners who care about sustainability can choose the Eco Collection, with luxurious fabrics crafted from recovered shoreline plastic or recycled yarns.
Faux Wood Blinds for Sunrooms
We can’t deny the appeal of genuine hardwood blinds, but excessive sun, heat, and moisture can damage the material. That’s why we recommend their faux wood cousins for Dallas sunrooms.
Hunter Douglas EverWood® Faux Wood Blinds resist fading, yellowing, warping, and bowing, which matters in a room where light conditions shift throughout the day. More than 50 color choices make it easy to match your existing trim or cabinetry; Performance Plus™ Protection backs every blind, guaranteeing no fading, discoloring, warping, or bowing for the life of the product.
Taking the Sheer Approach to Sunroom Light
Modern sheers also suit sunrooms well, since they diffuse hard light into a radiant glow without cutting off the outdoor views.
- Silhouette® Sheer Shades have adjustable S-shaped vanes between two light-diffusing sheer panels, gently scattering light rather than letting it cut straight across the room.
- Luminette® Sheer Panels pair a light-diffusing vertical sheer fabric with fully integrated vertical vanes, a stunning match for sliding doors or oversized glass walls.
- Pirouette® Sheer Shades combine adjustable, softly contoured fabric vanes with a light-diffusing back panel, giving windows a rounder, more textured look than a flat shade.
