Solar shading
Screens for your windows and awnings for your patio, keeping the heat out before it gets in.
Stopping it outside works, inside it's too late
A curtain or venetian blind sits on the inside of the glass. By then the sun's rays are already through, and the heat they bring stays trapped in the room. External solar shading intercepts them before they hit the glass, and that's the whole difference between a pleasant room and a stifling one.
For windows you do that with screens: a tautly tensioned fabric in front of the glass that blocks the sun but largely keeps the view outside. For a patio or a large south-facing window, an awning is the better choice, because it lays shade over the space itself.
- Heat stopped before the glass
- View outside remains
- Air conditioning becomes unnecessary
The fabric that retracts itself when the wind picks up
Solar shading you have to operate by hand tends to be used too late. That's why our screens and awnings work electrically, and you can link sensors to them. A sun sensor lowers the fabric when the sun reaches the façade; a wind sensor retracts it in a gust, even when you're not at home.
If there's no power near the window, both come in a solar-powered version. For the screens that's SolarFix; for the awnings, LinaSolar and LumiSolar.
