Hunter Douglas Silhouette Window Shadings™
Hunter Douglas Silhouette is one of the most common window treatments that is requested to clean by Onsite Fabricare Cleaning, and arguably one of Hunter Douglas’ most popular. Depending on the window, they come in all types of different shapes and sizes, although they are almost always horizontal.
When it comes to these window treatments, their privacy and light control is measured on a scale of one to five. Sheer is the lowest level, which allows light to enter the room while reducing glare and permitting one to view the outside. The highest level of privacy, known as Opaque, is a fabric or material that block essentially all light, providing the highest amount of privacy. This final level of privacy is also known as “room darkening”. At the same time, Hunter Douglas Silhouette window shading blocks up to 88% of UV rays with the vanes open. Hunter Douglas prides itself on manufacturing window treatment products that block the sun’s UV rays to protect flooring and furnishings from fading and other types of damage. UV protection is the measure of the amount of potentially damaging ultraviolet radiation that is blocked by Hunter Douglas window treatment products.
As for all shades, Hunter Douglas highly suggests that the Silhouette is cleaned by a certified and authorized professional cleaner, such as Onsite Fabricare Cleaning.
