Rollshutters provide the ultimate in heat and light control for sunrooms & solariums. Do you have a sunroom or solarium that is totally un-usable in the summer months because it's just too hot or in the winter because it's too cold?
The only really energy efficient way to control the inside temperature is to stop the heat or cold before it gets in - and the only product able to do that effectively is a motorized rollshutter solarium cover.Greenhouse EffectGreenhouses are used to grow plants, especially in the winter. Greenhouses work by trapping heat from the sun. The glass panels of the greenhouse (or sunroom!)let in light, but keep heat from escaping. This causes the greenhouse to heat up, much like the inside of a car parked in sunlight. This is why blinds or drapes on the inside provide light and glare conrol, but will be relatively ineffective in reducing the heat buildup. Since rollshutters are mounted on the outside of the glass, they are the ultimate heat solution for skylights and solariums.Save money! Because rollshutters can block up to 90% of solar heat gain, many of our customers have been able to eliminate the need for air conditioning completely with rollshutters, thereby reducing electricity costs and enjoying a more comfortable environment.
Low 'E' glass, fans, interior shades
Many products on the market today promise to control heat gain in sunrooms. And it's true, they do help somewhat. The problem is - there are so many BTU's of energy that are generated from sunlight coming through all that glass - the room can still be unusable in the summer months.
Without fail, our customers have told us that after having tried just about everything else on the market, rollshutters were the only product that actually worked to control the heat; and for the first time they were able to use their sunrooms and solariums all day (and all year) long!"We both enjoy our sunroom so much more since you installed the rollshutter. Thanks again for your courteous, fast and efficient service"
E. Beltgens Complete Darkness?? 
It isn't necessary to completely black out the inside of your beautiful sunroom or solarium. Most of the time it is sufficient to mount the rollshutters on the top 1/2 - 1/3 of the room, where the sun beats the strongest, leaving the bottom 1/2 - 2/3 open to your view. In addition, the light slots (see right) can be left open for a filtered light effect.
The key is the versatility that rollshutters provide. They are infinitely adjustable whenever you need it to whatever degree you want it. All it takes is the push of a button!Skylight CoveringsIt's a wonderful idea - a window in your roof to let more light into the room. Unfortunately most of us forget that sunlight also means fading carpets, dried up furniture, and heat.
 Sunblockers The most economical solution for filtering UV rays from glass in skylights is called a 'Sunblocker'. It's made of a heavy-duty, extremely strong, extremely durable, vinyl coated polyester. They are built to withstand all weather conditions and will last through years of extreme heat, rain and snow. These 'sunblockers' fit over the outside of the skylight.
They will fit either flat, pyramid or bubble skylights by means of grommeted stretch cords on each of the 4 corners and simply hooks underneath the edges of the skylight. They require no tools to install. They are easily removeable for the winter when you might want the extra sunlight.
They are also available at an additional charge fitted into frames that can be clipped onto the skylight. Sunblockers are available in standard sizes or can be custom made to fit almost any shape. They come in 3 different densities which have an openness factor (how much light/heat is allowed through) of either 25%, 10% or 5%. The most common and perhaps the best combination of heat blockage and visibility is the Suntex 90 with it's 10% openness. Please see chart below for standard sizes and prices. For densities other than Suntex 90, please contact us for prices. The prices are all in Canadian Dollars and do not include shipping, handling, taxes or installation.

 The Ultimate Skylight Cover  The ultimate product for heat, light and glare control (and absolutely the only effective solution for heat control on multiple skylights) is a motorized rollshutter skylight cover. Mounted on the outside of the glass and controlled by a switch or remote control from the inside, a rollshutter skylight cover is completely versatile - allowing you to have complete sun blockage, complete openness or anywhere in-between. The rollshutter profiles come in 8 standard colours (white, cream, lt. beige, dk. beige, oak, teak, brown & grey) and the panel box and rails come in 4 standard colours (white, lt. beige, brown or grey).
