New Inspiration for Paso Robles Window Treatments

While attending a recent trade convention, I was struck by how many innovative solutions are being designed for exterior sun control—especially for homes in warm climates like Paso Robles. One idea that really stood out was the use of motorized exterior shades to reduce heat before it even enters the home.

In Paso Robles, we see long, hot summers and strong afternoon sun, especially on west-facing patios and large glass windows. Interior window treatments help, but exterior shades offer a first line of defense by blocking solar heat gain before it penetrates the glass. The result? Cooler interiors, lower energy bills, and more comfortable outdoor living areas.

I immediately thought of several Paso Robles clients who could benefit from this—especially those with beautiful vineyard views and outdoor dining spaces they want to enjoy year-round.

At Window Wear, we’re excited to start offering more Paso Robles window treatments that include these smart, durable exterior shading options. With motorization, weather-resistant fabrics, and customizable sizing, we can help homeowners take control of their light, temperature, and comfort—all while preserving their views. One I loved actually uses the sun to not only charge it’s battery, but determine when it should be used, so when the sun is at it’s peak it extends and then retracts as the sun shifts off the window!

If you're looking for a modern way to manage sun exposure and protect your interiors, exterior shades might be the perfect addition to your home.
