Sun Control

Sun Control

Sun Control devices help manage solar heat gain and harvest natural daylight to meet sustainable design goals. They work in concert with the façade and the other building components to improve occupant comfort by redirecting sunlight.

Sunshades have a few common characteristics. A Sun Control device usually has an outer frame (outrigger), an inner component (louver), and fascia components.  Thermashade® sunshades  can be applied to Curtain Wall, Storefronts, and also Masonry Walls to maintain a consistent appearance across the building envelope.
