Product Details: Graber Vitale Solar Shade with 5% Open Material

Graber Vitale 5% Openness Solar Shades offer a balance of sun protection and outward visibility. The tightly woven solar fabric blocks up to 95% of harmful UV rays while allowing more of your outdoor view to come through. With its 5% openness, this fabric provides a brighter, more open view than tighter-weave solar fabrics, with less privacy.

**5% OPENNESS SOLAR FABRIC FEATURES**

This modern take on a classic window treatment is ideal for both residential and commercial applications. Solar shades help manage the sun's heat, reduce glare, and filter UV rays while preserving your view of the outdoors.

The 5% openness fabric allows more light and visibility through the shade than a 1% openness fabric. While tighter weaves provide greater sun control, they also reduce visibility through the fabric.

The fabric is made of 75% PVC and 25% polyester and is easy to care for. Solar shades also help protect furniture, flooring, and interior furnishings from sun damage.

**IMPORTANT PRIVACY INFORMATION**

Solar shades are designed to reduce glare and provide daytime sun protection while maintaining an outward view. However, because solar fabrics are woven with small openings, visibility can reverse at night. When interior lights are on, people outside may be able to see into your home. For nighttime privacy, an additional window covering may be needed.

**IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT ROLLER SHADE LIGHT GAPS**

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 actual fabric width will be narrower than the tip-to-tip measurement, which creates light gaps along the sides of the shade. This is normal for all roller shades.

For inside mount shades, the side light gaps will be approximately 3/8" to 1" per side, depending on the lift system and the fascia or cassette selected.

Although inside mounting is often preferred for window treatments, an outside mount is generally recommended for roller shades when optimal light and glare control are desired.
