"The shades are perfect! The color and weight of the shade are exactly how you explained, they look great with the wood trim. I was also impressed with the detailed instructions on installing them and all the supplies that came with them to install. We were able to install them in just over 4 hours.
I would recommend Thermal Designs to all. You were fast and courteous and knew your stuff."
"... I just wanted to tell you how much I love the shades and send you some pictures of them . My husband just got finished putting them up and it was easy to do. I think it will be great when the Texas sun shines down on the room."
"... wanted to let you know how pleased we are with the shade system. I am so glad we found you on the web. The shades were great and the installation was very simple. I was a bit nervous about installation, but went very smooth and straightforward. Looking forward to winter to see how the shades perfom in my passive solar room. "
"Hi Isabel, We finally retired and our #1 project is to install our shades. Just to keep you up to date, the 1st is almost installed. Give us 10 more minutes to finish!. Only five to go. We are thrilled with the quality and ease of installation. Will send an email when we are done.."
"...Just wanted to let you know we've had our shades about a month now and we love them. My husband was delighted at how easy they were to install."
"Hello to Ms. Isabel and Mr. Chet in Colorado from Ohio. Don and I just want to tell you how pleased we are with our new shades. They are beautiful. We had old stained and dirty shades in the sunroom when we moved into our house 7 years age. We waited until we could afford new. There is only one company in the Cincinnati area who offers 4 seasons sunroom shades, and their cost was way over what we were looking for. They install the shades, and we were required to buy two motors. We couldn't afford their price, so I investigated online and found your company. Don called and talked to Isabel and said she knew more about the shades than anyone he had talked to, and he felt confident ordering from your company. Don had no trouble installing the shades and having them motorized is so much easier than cranking to raise and lower them. Thank you very much for you product and your professional service. We would highly recommend you to anyone needing sunroom shades."
"The shades are in and I really love them! This makes my sunroom totally usable all summer long, despite the 90+ degree days we've been having.
The larger swatches of material you sent me and your feedback over the phone really helped. The fabric is perfect! They are extremely easy to open and close, so I don't hesitate to modify the lighting depending on the time of day and temperature.
Thanks so much for your help and for this terrific product!"
" Just wanted to drop you a quick email to let you know that the Sun Shades are up! We think they look totally lovely and gorgeous - and do a great job of reflecting the sun and providing shade and cooler temperatures.
Also, appreciate getting these in the timeframe promised."
"Well here is my sun room in Guilford, VT and the beautiful shades I purchased from you that were so easy to install. I must admit that I was overly nervous about the installation process, but was pleasantly surprised to find that I had all six shades installed in about 1.5 hours. I absolutely love how they look and the shade that they provide for me as well as for protecting the furniture in the room. I could not be happier with them. I am so glad that I found you on the internet. Anyone with a sun room should consider these beautiful as an addition to it. I think they will be as happy as I am with my new shades..."
"Isabel...We installed our shades, They were really easy to put up and you and Chet were just great as far as helping us out and just answering any questions that we had. It's refreshing to deal with a company that has real people answering their phones and that takes the time with their customers, no matter how trivial or large their problem is... I can't say how happy I am that I happened to be browsing the internet and googled "sunroom shades" and found your web site. We are so pleased with the quality of the shades, the service from your company and would absolutely tell ANYONE that has a room they can't use because of the sun, to call you immediately and they'll be taken care of..."
"Re:
Four Seasons Shades - Perfection!!!!
Received the 5 parcels last Thurs. installed last Friday, and have been enjoying the shade since.
The fit was perfect, the installation simple and the results terrific.
The difference is amazing. Just in time for our July 1, Canada Day long weekend. Many, many thanks for a job well done!"
"We are so very happy with our shades. When Scott & I decided to put shades in the sunroom, we were frustrated with no one in our area to help us. By chance I found Thermal Designs on the internet. We were so excited. After a few phone calls to finalize the details, we had our order placed and within weeks we received our new shades. I must say we use our sunroom more than ever. Thanks again for your expertise & professionalism."
"
Shades were received on Monday and on Tuesday I went to work putting them up. Instructions were very good for the overhead curtains. Everything fit very nicely. Thanks for your help. We love them."
"Just a note to tell you how happy I am with my new shades. We are having a very hot summer here in Indiana and they are keeping the heat out just like you promised. Thanks for all your help."

Our solarium shades and greenhouse shades are manually operated or motorized systems. Manually operated shades use hidden pulleys and pull cords that tie off to cleats mounted to a wall or beam. Motorized systems operate by wall switch or radio frequency remote control.
Solarium shades, sunroom shades and greenhouse shades operate on wheels which ride in pre-existing shade track imbedded in your room's glazing bars or we fabricate decorative add-on track specifically for your installation. Our Track Shades use gliders that run inside the add-on track.
Solar shades (screen shades) are roller shades, require no track, cover vertical window surfaces and are operated by bead chain or motorization.
Our solarium shades and sunroom shades are available in a variety of durable, moisture-proof fabrics, textures, weaves and attractive fade-resistant designer colors. The choice of fabrics gives you the ability to control the amount of privacy, degree of transparency, heat reflectivity and heat retention.
Order your shades with insulating Thinsulate™ to maximize temperature control. This insulation layer inside each shade will work to keep your room warmer in winter and cooler in summer.

Our solar shades (screen shades) offer several densities to choose from for optimal reduction of light and solar radiation to suit your needs.
Thermal Designs solarium shades are also designed with low pitched solarium and greenhouse models in mind. Where gravity may need a little help in lowering, our shades are operated by hand using a simple shade wand against the shade handles to easily push them down and up.

A recent email from one of our customers...
"...We are finally finished with our patio. We want to thank you again for your quality product. The shades allow us to be in control of the patio. We've got sun (and heat) when we want, and cool shade when it's too hot. The shades went up slick. Everything was in the shipment that we needed--well thought out. All the shades were uniform and very well made. Our project, being a unique diy type of installation, I was impressed ...NO surprises. You know your product very well and are able to communicate very well. That means a lot when you are doing the project all by yourself. We would highly recommend your product to anyone."
