Some features of Wilco Products Sunroom Shades are:

  • The shades are excellent in cutting out heat and in making sunrooms livable again. Everyone remarks at how quickly the heat of a sunroom is significantly reduced once the shades are installed.
  • All sunroom shades utilize our 7/16th cellular light filtering fabrics.
  • These stop approximately 35% of the light and gently diffuse the light to cut out all glare from the sun. It also stops approximately 55% of the heat gain.
  • The shades accordion back into a very compact size allowing the maximum amount of light to enter the room.
  • They can stop at any position. (There are no hanging folds that come from roman shade models). Permanent glass shading may reduce glare, but they offer the user no ability to control the environment within the room.
  • We manufacture shades to fit into most manufacturers’ sunrooms.
    • We utilize the built in tracks in the Four Seasons Sunroom
    • The drip gutters in Admiral sunrooms
    • The shutter track in the C-thru sunrooms.

The Four Seasons® Sunroom has a roof shade that pulls from the top down to the beginning of the curve and a front vertical shade that pulls up from the bottom and goes over the curve. Both run in the built-in tracks.

These flat roof shades fit in between the beams and each cross bar of the bay. They ride on the drip gutter of the central beam.

 

We usually recommend a long shade going over a curve be divided into two shades. In curved roof shades we insert aluminum slats into every third or fourth cell to hold the fabric up. The ends of the slats either ride on the drip gutters of the beams, in the built in tracks, or on our polycarbonate strips.

Where there are no built-in tracks or ledges we add clear polycarbonate strips which are located on the bottom of the beams along which are shades traverse. Note that a clear paddle captures the strip to prevent the shade from being pushed up when operated by a telescopic pole.

 

Shades are operated by inserting a telescopic pole into a recess in the travel rail or by pulling the shade with a handle attached to the travel rail. See Skylight Shade section.
