Stop Harmful UV Rays
Although plenty of sun can light up a room, the harmful UV rays can ruin what’s inside it. At Altra Home Décor serving the greater Phoenix area, many of our customers want to ensure that the investment they’ve made in their homes and furnishings is protected. We’re here to help. Read on to learn more!
About UV Rays
UV rays are an invisible form of radiation that the sun emits. They do have some helpful properties (we see you, healthful vitamin D), but they can be damaging, especially with prolonged exposure—and not just to our skin. UV rays can damage furniture, flooring, and artwork, mostly because, over time, UV rays break down the chemical bonds in those objects, resulting in a bleached or faded appearance. It can be particularly jarring when part of the object is in the sun throughout the day while another part isn’t—resulting in a distinctly discolored area juxtaposed with a regular area.
Style AND Protection
Many Altra Home Décor customers are afraid that window fashions will detract from their view or their décor. However, having Hunter Douglas products ensures that you don’t have to give up style to get the protection you need for your room and what’s inside. You can choose from a wide variety of colors, styles, textures, and fabrics. And you can rest assured that your window treatment will be custom-designed to fit your window exactly. Here are just a few you might choose from:
- Pirouette® Window Shades can block up to 81% of harmful UV rays, while offering simple sophistication for your home.
- Silhouette® Window Shadings can block 95% to 99% of the sun’s rays while letting you maintain your view.
- Designer Screen Shades can block up to 99% of harmful UV rays and are especially good for patios and sunrooms.
