Sun Stoppers · Charlotte, NC · Since 2006

Solar shades and blinds are window treatments designed to filter sunlight rather than block it entirely. Like sunglasses for your windows, solar screen fabrics reduce glare and heat while maintaining clear outward views and preserving the natural feel of a room.
Unlike standard blinds or blackout curtains, solar shades allow you to control the amount of light entering a space without creating a closed-in feeling. High-quality solar screen fabrics can block up to 97% of harmful UVA and UVB rays, protecting your family, your furnishings, and your flooring from sun damage while keeping your home comfortable and energy-efficient.
Sun Stoppers installs Insolroll solar screen shades and Timber Blinds products, premium manufacturers known for fabric quality, durability, and design range.
Charlotte’s intense summer sun drives up heat, fades furnishings, and creates uncomfortable glare, all without you having to close your blinds and lose the view. Solar shades address all of these problems simultaneously.
Like sunglasses for your windows, solar screen fabrics reduce glare to a comfortable level without requiring you to close your blinds entirely.

Regular blinds use slats that can be opened or closed to control light. Solar shades use a continuous fabric that filters light without opening and closing. Solar shades generally provide better glare control, UV protection, and view preservation than standard slatted blinds, while regular blinds offer more flexibility in adjusting exact light levels.
Yes, solar shades can reduce energy bills by limiting heat entering through windows. They reduce solar heat gain, which lowers indoor temperatures and decreases air conditioning use, especially in south- and west-facing rooms common in Charlotte homes.
Yes, solar shades provide daytime privacy by allowing you to see out while preventing others from seeing in. This one-way effect works when it’s brighter outside than inside. At night, visibility reverses, so adding blackout shades or dual-layer systems is recommended for full privacy.
Yes, motorized blinds are worth it for convenience, safety, and smart home integration. They eliminate cords, make large or hard-to-reach windows easy to control, and connect with systems like Alexa, Google Home, Lutron, and Control4. They’re especially useful in modern or high-window homes.
Most solar shade installations are completed in a single visit. Larger homes or commercial projects may take longer, depending on the number of windows and system complexity. A precise timeline is provided during your in-home consultation.
Yes, outdoor solar shades are available for patios, porches, and exterior spaces. These weather-resistant shades block heat before it enters your home, making them more effective for cooling than interior options.
