 For many types of windows, controlling the sun's heat and glare on
the interior is the most practical way. While slightly less effective than exterior
shading, interior sun control methods allow a variety of ways to control the sun and light
while, at the same time, enhancing even the most sophisticated of interior decorating
schemes. Phifer's interior shading fabrics, described here, offer exciting new
alternatives to ordinary window fabrics. Phifer interior shading fabrics are durable, meet
or exceed requirements for flame retardancy and are virtually maintenance free. |
The most effective way to control the sun's heat
and glare is to stop it before it enters your window. Once the sun's rays enter they are
absorbed and begin to radiate throughout the room in the form of heat. Much like a big
shade tree, exterior shading will help reduce your cooling costs, can reduce the load on
your air conditioning and will help reduce glare and fading.
