The sun can cause valuable features like the floor, furniture, and artwork of your home to fade. In this article, we’ll talk about how blinds protect your furniture from the sun.
How the sun damages your furniture
They are three key causes of damage from light spectrum; these include heat radiation, UVB, and UVA rays. Your expensive furniture can fade due to the UV rays that come from the sun. Both fabric and wood is susceptible to sun damage. Even the wood finishes can be damaged by the sun in addition to the wood itself.
Blinds
The great way to preserve the value of your furniture is to invest some money in blinds. These are also known as solar shades! There are specific ultraviolet window blinds that are designed from fabrics that disperse and filter aggressive light. This makes them a useful selection in protecting your furniture at home. There are also blinds made of other opaque products that prevent UV light from penetrating them.
