Transparent woven shades are a mesh material. They filter light, reduce fading, control heat and cut glare, and can be either commercial or residential use. Woven shades are available in different openness factors and colors. The lighter colors block 30 % more heat than darker colors and allow more natural light in. The darker colors allow for sharper outward visibility and have more glare reduction. Woven shades are made of a combination of vinyl-coated fiberglass and vinyl-coated polyester yarns. The fabric is also bacterial and fungal resistant.

SilverScreen Shades are an environmentally friendly Green Product. They are an excellent heat rejection in the summer and a reduction of heat loss in the winter. They eliminate 82% of the solar effects, with an openness factor between 4-6%. The transparent woven material has a highly reflective, ultra fine layer of aluminum vacuum bonded to the exterior facing the side of vinyl coated woven fiberglass. Then the fabric is given a special finish that protects the bond making it suited for roller shades. They repel dirt and dust for easy maintenance, are non-toxic, and are lead free. SilverScreen has been awarded the Greenguard Certification for Safe Indoor Air Quality, and also the Children and School Safety Certificate.

Is the time nearing to replace the Air Traffic Control Tower shades?

Although Solar Screen F-72SR Mylar shades offer a longer operational life than our competitor’s shades, exposure, cab conditions and daily use for any film shade will age its surface and hardware. Dust, grime, sun fading and smears caused by misuse are typical of a sun shade in its expected service life of 5 years. With Solar Screen’s hardware, materials and installation, the estimated service life of a properly maintained shade is extended out to more than seven years. How is that so?

• Solar Screen starts at the top with a steel roller containing our heavy duty spring-steel lift assembly on nylon sleeves. Next, hardened steel – making up the roller’s pin ends and their support brackets, combined with Solar Screen’s exclusive ‘extended shoulder’ idle end bracket, allows us to present a wear life much longer than anybody else has to offer.
• With the need at times to splice the film body on large shades, our competitors simply ‘tape’ their seams. Not only does our F-72 Scratch Resistant, Metalized Mylar film meet all FAA specs, Solar Screen is the only manufacturer that ‘sonically welds’ the seams. Again, adding to the service life of our shades.
• The final aspect of our cab shades is what our competitors seem to think is the least important – shade operation. You may have seen these problems already – misaligned hold-downs, fraying the pull-cord; cord-locks used improperly as a hold-down pulley, causing cord-lock wear; and cord-locks inconveniently placed. With our system, the primary hold-down of each shade utilizes our stainless steel and nylon ‘super pulleys,’ after which the pull-cord is directed toward the cord-lock.  Any pull-cord re-directions that are necessary to get to a convenient location are made by our super pulleys, insuring that the shade cord runs straight through the final cord-lock as friction-free as possible. No cord wear, long service life!

Reduce the heat and glare coming into your RV. Recreational vehicles like Winnebagos and campers often come with large windows which can magnify the sun’s rays and cause excessive solar heat and glare. This can also damage your interior by causing fading over time. Air conditioners operate less efficiently when solar heat is a factor. The solution? Kool Vue Mylar Shades. They are perfect for controlling the sun’s unforgiving excessive heat and will add comfort to your RV.

Our Phifer 4000 Sheerweave Shades. could also be used for a more decorative look.

We recommend mounting with our Notched Track System which insures shades will stay safely in place on bumpy rides.

These dark smoke shades are for intense glare, UV and heat control. Shades are constructed of five gauge multi-ply mylar and will not pit. Industrial Strength Shade material is stronger than steel and virtually tear proof seams (if required for larger shades) are both adhesive bonded and sonic welded eliminating problems under high load usage. Industrial Strength shades are made of a scratch resistant material. Looking through the shade, colors remain TRUE insuring that Visual Light Signals are easily recognized. Red, Yellow and Green Signal Markers are never distorted, even at a great distance.  Industrial Strength Shades provide daytime privacy only.

Control towers often require double shades, one set of 247OB and one set of F-72.

* F-72 for Southern and Southwestern Geographies where the sun is brighter and hotter; there is also a transparent metallic coating between the layers for added heat reduction.
* 2470B for Northern Geographies where the sun is less intense. This is more for glare than heat reduction.

Shades are often used in applications where dust, drafts and open windows are the norm. The special coating means less abrasion from air born dust insuring longer service life. Shades are mounted on heavy-duty steel rollers with dust covers protecting the drive mechanism from abrasive grit. These shades are built for reliability and durability.

Industrial Strength Shades are not affected by sub zero cold or tropical heat or humidity. This is important for shades used in specialized work areas, on construction and mining equipment, ships and locations that are not accessible for normal maintenance and repairs. These shades are engineered for full vision under severe environmental conditions. These shades are also lead free.
Maximum dimensions for Industrial Strength Film Shades are 144″ wide x 134″ high. Industrial Strength Shade material comes 72″ wide. The longest shade without a seam is 72″ wide x 134″ high.
