Openness Factor

The percentage in openness indicates how much sunlight will filter through your shades based on how tightly the fabric is woven. Most homeowners choose a 5% openness for their screen shades. This is the ideal percentage to enjoy views without any unnecessary glare, while protecting furniture from harmful UV rays. Anything below 5% openness is recommended for maximum shading, privacy, and energy savings.
