UV Rays Cause Damage

By Bretz Interiors

Everyone who lives in Colorado knows how strong the sun can be. And we’ve all probably had a bad experience or two with UV rays causing damage—to our cars, our outdoor furniture, and even to our floors and furnishings. At Bretz Interiors here in Lakewood, we’re proud to offer products that counteract the power of UV rays in the home: Hunter Douglas window fashions. Read on to learn about which products work best!

Why UV Rays Are Harmful

Ultraviolet (UV) rays are, essentially, radiation, and, after prolonged exposure, they break down the chemical bonds of what they touch. Once those bonds break, the result is a bleached or faded appearance, which can be particularly noticeable 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, a jarring look most homeowners would rather avoid.

Get Great-Looking Protection From Hunter Douglas

Always remember that, with Hunter Douglas, you don’t have to give up style to get the protection you need for your flooring, furniture, and décor. Many options come in a wide variety of colors, styles, textures, and fabrics. Here are a few that offer the highest levels of protection:

  • Silhouette® Window Shadings can block up to 99% of the sun’s harmful rays. They are available in 36 different material and color options, and their design allows you to maintain your view while still protecting your drapes, furniture, and other interior design elements from the sun.
  • Designer Screen Shades can also block up to 99% of harmful UV rays, and they’re especially good for patios and sunrooms because they’ll preserve your view while complementing your décor. Plus, you can select the new Greenscreen Sea-Tex™ fabrics, which are made from reclaimed ocean plastic.
  • Pirouette® Window Shades can block up to 81% of UV rays. They feature uniquely designed, soft horizontal fabric vanes that can be easily maneuvered to control light and sun, while offering simple sophistication for your space.

A Complete Look at the Window

To round out the look at the window, layer your new UV-protecting shades with coordinating drapery or side panels to add drama, dimension, texture, and depth while framing the window in an elegant way. Check out the Design Studio™, where you’ll find many fabric options to coordinate with the style of your space. Many of the fabrics are available in Accents by the Yard, which lets you have extra fabric to create accent pieces such as throw pillows. And don’t forget the drapery hardware for the ultimate finishing touch.

Reviews of Bretz Interiors

"Awesome service and a great eye for color. We had a great experience with Pat from Bretz. We loved her down to earth approach. The service was extraordinary. Not only did Pat respond very quickly but she was also very prepared. She brought samples to our home, offering many choices. Her choices have worked very well in our home and we are thrilled. We will always use Bretz from now on." ~ Linda
"Very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly . Pat was excellent through the process choosing my new hardwood floors, and the installers were the best contractors I've ever dealt with. They even repaired some tile work that had not been installed by them. I'd definitely recommend Bretz to anyone!" ~ Prudence P.
"Very professional and prompt service, lots of follow-up calls. Best contractor experience I've ever had. All of their employees are polite, friendly and professional. I'd recommend Bretz Interiors to anyone!" ~ Deborah T. in Highlands Ranch, CO
