At Takoy Windows by Design, we serve the Treasure Valley by providing the best window treatments around. It’s easy to rely on drapes and blinds because of their universal functionality, but we believe that solar shades have a lot to offer the Idaho homeowner. Solar shades are an often-overlooked window treatment but have a multitude of benefits to offer. They are woven using high-performance fabric that absorbs the heat and damaging UV rays from the sun. Unlike other window treatments that have opacity options, solar shades have openness options. The more open the weave the more you’ll be able to see through the shade. Partner these with a privacy liner for full blackout coverage, giving you the best of both worlds.
