Best Window Coverings for Sunrooms
Not all sunrooms are insulated 4-season rooms—and even if they are, they experience some amount of heat gain and loss through the windows. The right window coverings can make your sunroom more comfortable in warm and cool weather, without sacrificing your view.
Even the most insulated 4-seasons room still can face issues like UV damage and glare. The best window coverings from sunrooms add insulation and automation, so you can use your phone, watch a game, enjoy the view, or have a conversation and enjoy your space year-round. Ideally, the best shades offer options to fit all sizes of windows, sliding glass doors or patio doors.
Our Favorite Sunroom Window Shades
Our favorite sunroom window shades let you enjoy the view without sacrificing privacy.
Solar shades are perfect for this because they’re made from a weave that lets you see through them in different levels of opacity. The weave blocks most ultraviolet rays, so your belongings won’t fade, and, depending on the color you select, either absorbs or reflects heat, keeping your sunroom comfortable.
Alustra® Woven Textures® Roller Shades and Roman Shades are also good options. The fabric is made from natural woven materials sourced from around the world. They allow diffused light to pass through, and metal threads cast a golden gleam that adds natural visual interest.
Sheer shades, like the Silhouette® Sheer Shades and Pirouette® Sheer Shaes, use both sheer fabric panels and opaque fabric vanes to control light. The sheer fabrics continuously block UV light and glare, but you can still enjoy the view. You can also adjust the vanes to get the right balance of light and privacy.
Sunroom Curtain Ideas
If you like the idea of framing the windows in your sunroom or having flowing fabric near them, the sunroom curtain ideas could be just the ticket.
Sheer drapes or shades. Luminette® Sheer Panels are vertical window treatments with a drapery-like feel. Twisted one way, they’re sheer and see-through. Twisted the other, they provide privacy and darkness because of the opaque or room-darkening fabric.
Drapery fabric adds color, texture, and layers to your sunroom, and sheep options let you see through them while more opaque options offer coverage and privacy. You can use these on their own or in conjunction with shutters, blinds, or shades for additional light, privacy, and temperature control.
Provenance® Woven Wood Shades bring in a touch of nature, and the fabric filters light. For a drapery-like feel, consider vertical styles rather than horizontal.
