Product Details: (a)Graber LightWeaves Solar Shade with 1% to 10% Openness Sun Control Fabrics

Graber LightWeaves Solar Shades offer a stylish, modern window covering solution that combines sun protection with an unobstructed view outdoors. Designed for both residential and commercial applications, these solar shades help reduce glare, manage solar heat, and block harmful UV rays while maintaining your view through the window. Available in a wide selection of fabrics and openness levels, LightWeaves Solar Shades can complement traditional decor or create a bold, contemporary statement.

**FABRIC OPTIONS & Openness LEVELS**

Graber LightWeaves Solar Shades are available in a variety of stylish fabrics with openness levels ranging from 1% to 10%. Choose the openness level that best suits your needs for light control, glare reduction, and visibility.

- Tighter weaves provide greater sun control and UV protection but reduce visibility through the fabric.
- More open weaves allow greater visibility while providing varying degrees of sun protection.
- Easy-to-maintain fabrics are made with vinyl-coated and PVC-coated yarns.

**CONTINUOUS LOOP LIFT SYSTEM**

This shade features a continuous loop chain operating system with a color-coordinated beaded chain and clutch for smooth, easy operation. A stainless steel chain option is also available (see options).

The chain remains at a consistent length regardless of the shade's position. The clutch features a built-in brake that allows the shade to hold its position precisely without slipping.

Please specify left or right chain location when ordering.

A safety chain guide is included to help prevent the chain from becoming a strangulation hazard.

**CONTINUOUS LOOP SAFETY TENSIONER**

An improved tensioner device applies consistent tension to the operating chain to help prevent it from loosening and creating a potential strangulation hazard.

Proper installation of the chain tension device is essential for the shade to operate correctly and safely. Failure to properly install the device may result in damage to the chain or operating system. Damage resulting from improper installation is not covered under the product warranty, and the installer will be responsible for any resulting damage.

**VALANCE OPTIONS**

A valance is not included as standard with this shade. However, several decorative valance options are available for an additional charge:

- Cassette valance with fabric insert
- Aluminum fascia
- Contoured fabric-wrapped valance
- Flat fabric-wrapped valance

Please see the valance options section above for available styles and additional details.

**LIGHT GAPS & MEASURING INFORMATION**

The total width of a roller shade, including the hardware attached to the ends of the roller tube, is called the "tip-to-tip" measurement. The fabric itself will be narrower than the tip-to-tip measurement, resulting in small light gaps along the sides of the shade. This is standard for all roller shades.

For inside-mounted Graber LightWeaves Solar Shades, expect a fabric light gap of approximately 3/8" to 1" per side, depending on the operating system and selected fascia or cassette.

Although inside mounting is often preferred for window coverings, an outside mount installation is recommended when optimal light and glare control are the priority.

**CARE & MAINTENANCE**

Graber LightWeaves Solar Shades are virtually maintenance-free. Periodic vacuuming and occasional cleaning with a mild detergent, soft brushing, and thorough rinsing are all that is generally required to keep the fabric looking its best.
