Many people underestimate the damage sunlight can inflict on the furnishings in their homes. They often don’t realize it until it’s too late, prompting the need for costly repairs or replacement of furniture and other belongings.
UV rays from the sun can fade colors over time and cause damage to wood, sometimes causing permanent discoloration. UV light can either fade or darken wooden furniture, depending on the type of wood. It can also cause fading, discoloration, and deterioration of other materials, especially textiles like upholstery and carpets, as well as wallpapers, photographs, and artwork.
Throughout history, controlling light in homes has been a concern with builders striving to maximize natural light before electric lighting was common. Homeowners have always sought ways to protect their homes and belongings from sun damage, employing features like shutters, awnings, and deep porches. While these traditional methods still work for old houses, modern technology offers additional options for managing light exposure.
