The varieties of blinds and shades are endless. Even when two products look the same, they could be completely different. Most of us aren’t well-versed in window coverings…
At the most basic definition, roller shades are simple window coverings, whereas, instead of having slats or veins like blinds, a solid sheet of material covers the window and is brought down with a roller function.
Roller Shades are simple & budget friendly. You may either choose a neutral, solid color and fabric to tie together a space, or make the shade an accent to the room and choose a bold, attention-getting color or pattern. The material used for roller shades is solid, and cannot be seen through.
If you’re in need of a shade that is budget friendly and stylish, a roller shade might be the choice.
Solar shades are also fairly simple window coverings. Like roller shades, they do not have slats or veins, and when pulled down, a sheet of material covers the window, propelled by a roller and tube function.
The ultimate goal of solar shades is to block the number of harsh UV Rays coming into your home. This function is designed to allow you to regulate the temperature in your home in the end.
When you see “14 Percent Openness” solar shades, that means the shade is blocking out 86 percent of UV Rays, while allowing 14 percent of UV rays in your home. Blindster’s solar shades are defined in 1-, 3-, 5-, 7-, 10- and 14- openness. The higher the number, the more transparent the shade.Similarities
