Solar Shades
Sheer shades allow light to pass through them while also providing a view. They are available in multiple opacities with the most common being 5%, 3%, and 1%. These percentages refer to the amount of space left between the weaves. Keep in mind however that 5% means you’ll have 95% of the view blocked by the shade. 3% means you’ll have 97% blocked, and 1% means you’ll have 99% blocked. Sometimes people call sheers “solar shades,” but this doesn’t mean they’re powered by solar energy. It just refers to the fact that they allow light to pass through them while providing UV, heat and light protection.
