Window Treatments and UV Protection

Window treatments add another important benefit aside from insulation - UV protection.

The sunlight streaming through your windows may seem beautiful. But keep in mind that it carries with it damaging UV rays that, over time, will damage your home's interior.

Furnishings
You may love your cherry colored wood tables or dark blue couch. We all have favorite pieces of furniture that turn our houses into homes. However over time, UV rays will cause damage to your furniture, fading the colors and weakening the structure of the fibers.

Artwork
Look around your home. How many heirlooms, antiques, and works of art do you possess that are irreplaceable? If left exposed, UV rays will eventually damage all of your prized possessions. Warping canvas, fading paints, damaging finishes. These are just a few examples of UV damage.

Floors
Whether you have carpet or wood flooring, the UV rays of sunlight will damage your floor. Fading and discoloration are common signs of damage. In the case of wood floors, you may even see splitting.
