Sunroom Window Treatments

Sunny rooms with lots of light are one of the most attractive features of a home. They’re the ideal flexible space, whether you need an extra sitting room, a home office, a playroom, or even a yoga studio. You and your plants can enjoy all the benefits of sunlight for your health with all the advantages of staying inside. However, sunrooms can present a challenge when it comes to selecting window treatments. You don’t want to lose the sunlight that drew you to the room in the first place, but you do need to preserve your home’s privacy and energy efficiency at times. That’s why we’ve put together a handy guide to selecting the best window treatments for your sunroom.

1. Keep the Light

Sunlight is vital for your mood and overall health, so a sunroom can greatly benefit a home. You don’t want to lose your access to natural light, but there are many reasons you might need to temper it with a window treatment, including energy efficiency and UV protection. That makes Silhouette® Window Shadings from Hunter Douglas an ideal sunroom window treatment. The sheer fabric filters up to 88% of UV rays so you can enjoy the sunlight, and the floating s-shaped vanes provide privacy and temperature control as needed.

2. Block the Heat

With a lot of sunrooms, temperature control is a primary concern. Broad expanses of glass allow in excessive heat in the summer and cold during the winter. For these rooms, a window treatment adds an essential layer of insulation. The best window treatment for insulation is Hunter Douglas Duette® Honeycomb Shades. Their honeycomb structure traps pockets of air that block exterior air temperatures from entering your home, keeping your sunroom more comfortable year-round.

3. Privacy When You Need It

If a combination of privacy and natural light is your primary concern, Designer Banded Shades from Hunter Douglas are an excellent choice. These minimalist roller shades are crafted from two layers of alternating sheer and opaque fabric bands that can be aligned or offset to create the lighting and privacy you desire. The horizontal stripes make for an eye-catching modern design feature in your space.

4. Automatically Easier

It can be annoying to adjust all the window treatments in a sunroom multiple times a day, leading homeowners toward under-utilizing them. When you keep your sunroom window treatments open or closed all the time, you aren’t getting the full benefit of your investment. That’s where adding PowerView® Automation can help. Control all your window treatments with a remote or with the PowerView® App and set schedules to have your shades adjust automatically. PowerView® works great on hard-to-reach upper windows and skylights, as well.
