An answer to every question

The caps are supplied in the colour of the screens. For example, if you order the colour “White” you will receive the caps in the same colour. We have a matching colour cap for every screen.

Sun Eclipse sunscreen suction cups can withstand harmful UV rays from the sun and last for many years.

We offer “Optimal view” sunscreens that only slightly obstruct the view to the outside, for rooms where the outside view is preferred. These screens have very good heat-resistant properties with an optimal view and are often chosen for rooms where natural daylight is preferred, such as living rooms and kitchens. Turning on a lamp during the day is not necessary.

We offer “Maximum sunblock” sunscreens for areas in which maximum heat protection is important and a view of the outside is not necessary. With Maximum sunblock, you can block most of the heat and still keep some view of the outside. This screen is often chosen for rooms where maximum sun protection is preferred, such as bedrooms, offices with computer screens, and bathrooms. You will often have to turn on a light if you stay in rooms with maximum sun protection screens.

Always make sure that your Sun Eclipse screens are clean and dry before storing them in a dry place. Our screens are supplied in a cardboard storage box that is also suitable for winter storage.

No. Sun Eclipse sun protection screens can be placed on all shapes of flat glass only.

Yes, Sun Eclipse screens fit all shapes of flat glass. View the measurement instructions for differently shaped windows during the ordering process.

Yes, no problem at all.

Our suction cups are 3.5 cm high. It may be that the sliding door cannot be opened with the suction cup on the window. If you take this into account, a Sun Eclipse screen is an ideal heat-blocking solution! If there is not enough space, you could consider placing a Sun Eclipse screen on the inside of the window.

There is a difference in the heat-resistant effect between the different colours. For outdoor installation, choose a dark colour, such as Black, Anthracite or Concrete. These will resist the heat better and provide more visibility to the outside compared to a light colour. For the inside, we recommend choosing the colour White or Boulder.

Preferably choose a colour that suits your home and taste. This increases the chance that you will leave your Sun Eclipse screens on all summer.

Sun Eclipse screens do not stretch or tear, even when exposed to heat. Sun Eclipse screens can withstand intensive use and weather conditions such as rain, hail, snow, UV light, and wind.

The vast majority of customers choose a colour based on information on the website. The different colours have been chosen in such a way that there is little overlap and so many people can make a choice easily.

We send samples on request. This way you can compare colours and view them in the vicinity of the window.

The exact efficiency of Sun Eclipse screens depends on many factors. That is why it is not possible to indicate exactly how many degrees the difference will be.

In addition, temperature is relative. As humans, we mainly compare the outside with the inside and one space with another. We also find different temperatures comfortable in every season. In short, temperature is not an exact science.

What we do know, and all our satisfied customers as well is that you will notice the difference, probably already on the first full day that the screens are up. Or if you are visiting neighbours who don’t have screens in a similar room.

If you still have doubts, order Sun Eclipse screens for the room that gets the hottest. For example an attic room. For maximum effect, mount the screens on the outside of the window.

Sun Eclipse suction cups can be mounted on any type of flat glass. They don’t stick on glass with relief, foils, etc.

You can also install Sun Eclipse screens indoors. For example, if you cannot easily reach the outside of the window. The screens’ heat-resistant properties are lower if you place the screens on the inside than when you place the screens on the outside. When screens are placed on the inside, light colours are better at repelling the heat than dark colours. If you choose to place the screens indoors, choose the colour White or Boulder.

Everything you need to install your Sun Eclipse sunscreens and store them during the winter. The correct number of suction cups, the caps in the colour of the screen, the screen(s), the storage and shipping box, alcohol wipes and installation instructions.

Sun Eclipse Sonnenschutzscreens und Saugnäpfe bleiben auch zum Beispiel bei einem Frühlingssturm an Ort und Stelle. Unsere Screens fangen wenig Wind ein, weil sie dicht am Fenster aufsitzen, somit halten die Saugnäpfe auch starkem Wind stand.a

Sun Eclipse screens and suction cups stay put even during a spring storm. Our screens catch little wind because they are close to the windows and the suction cups are designed to last.

The suction cups are a maximum of 100 cm apart. If your screen has a length and/or width that is larger, an extra suction cup is placed halfway so that the maximum distance between two suction cups, measured along one side, is never greater than 100 cm.

Sun Eclipse screens are made of sustainable material, last a long time and ensure lower energy consumption when using air conditioners. It is the simplest solution to indoor heat.

Because Sun Eclipse screens are placed 2 cm from the window’s surface, the screens are supplied with 1.5 cm excess fabric on each side (3 cm per width and height). As a result, the screens close properly and no heat and light can pass through the edges.

You can also opt for no excess fabric, for instance, if you have high square upright edges on your window frames. In this case, choose under ‘which type of frame do you have’ the option ‘Deep and angled’ when you order.

You can request any other changes in the order option. This way you can create a custom sunshade.

Yes, this is possible!

Sun Eclipse screens are 2 cm from the window’s surface so that the window will not heat up when the screens are mounted in front of the window. This is in contrast to e.g. a film that is attached to the window itself. However, there are some guidelines that must be followed with HR+++ windows.

• I have an HR+++ window that is placed vertically* and I want to mount the Sun Eclipse screen on the outside what are my options for choosing a Sun Eclipse screen?
  • You are completely free to choose any colour you like. This is because the screen is mounted on the outside and the window does not heat up. This will prevent your window from cracking.
• I have an HR+++ window that is placed vertically* and I want to mount the Sun Eclipse screen on the inside what are the options for choosing a Sun Eclipse screen?
  • We advise you to choose the colour “White”. This is because the screen does not heat up and cannot give off heat to the interior space and to the window. This will prevent your window from cracking.
• I have an HR+++ window that is not placed vertically** and I want to mount the Sun Eclipse on the outside,what are the options for choosing a Sun Eclipse screen?
  • The screen may touch the window due to gravity. We recommend choosing the colour “White”. This is because the screen does not heat up and no heat can be transferred to the window. This will prevent your window from cracking.

With proper maintenance, you will enjoy your purchase the longest. Therefore, use our special Sun Eclipse cleaner. This special cleaner cleans and de-stains the screens and gives them a fresh look. It is also possible to make the suction cups grease-free and to clean the windows with the cleaner. When ordering your screen, you will see the option “with Sun Eclipse cleaner” at the bottom.

Mounting Sun Eclipse screens with the suction cup is very easy. The screen is supplied with mounting holes, finished with grommets, and comes with the correct number of suction cups.

All you have to do is place the suction cups on the canvas, then place the suction cups on the window, and finally tighten them.

Is your screen not mounted properly after the first try? You can easily unscrew the suction cups and place them correctly.

Your Sun Eclipse screen always comes with at least four suction cups, one in each corner.

An extra suction cup is placed if the height or width is more than 100 cm on one side.

For example, your width is 110 cm and your height is 80 cm. Then there are three suction cups on each side on the 110 cm wide sides and two on the 80 cm high sides. There will be six suction cups on the screen because the suction cups on the corners count for both width and height.

This way your screen can always be well placed.

The correct number of suction cups is automatically added to every order. The square metre prices for “Optimal view” and “Maximum sunblock” are as follows.

White and Black: € 79,95

Boulder, Anthracite andConcrete: € 89,95
