Easily block the heat out of your
A house extension is great for sitting or cooking in. Especially during the off-season when a lovely ray of sunshine comes in, but in summer it can quickly become unbearably hot. Large windows obviously provide plenty of natural light, but on hot days they also let the heat in unhindered. Fortunately, there is a remedy for this. Sun Eclipse’s sun protection screens keep up to 85% of the heat out on hot days, without sacrificing light. Thanks to the simple installation without drilling or screws, you can easily install the screens and remove them again when needed.
The trick is to keep the heat out of your house extension or the space under your skylight. Sun Eclipse’s sun protection screens are therefore specially designed to reflect heat easily and quickly. Depending on the type of solar screen, you can keep out up to 97% of the sun’s heat. You easily attach the screens with specially designed suction cups. Thanks to their design, they develop extra suction on your window, so they stay firmly in place during a storm, for example. Is your skylight or house extension difficult to reach from the outside? Then you can also install screens along the inside of your windows.
This does affect the efficiency of your screens. Want to see exactly how screens work? Then watch our instruction video.
The suction cups to attach the screens are 3.5 cm high. Keep this in mind if you want to attach them to a sliding window. Is there not enough space for the suction cups? Then choose a screen that you can place on the inside of the window.
For skylights and flat roof windows, we recommend Maximum Sunblock. These sun-blocking screens also have some blackout effect, keeping out up to 97% of solar heat.
TIP: For a skylight or flat roof window, it is best to choose a light colour screen (e.g. White). This helps to reflect heat rather than absorb it.
For house extensions, we recommend Optimal view. Thanks to these screens, you can continue to enjoy an optimal view to the outside, yet they block up to 85% of the heat.
TIP: For house extensions, it is best to choose a dark colour screen (e.g. Black or Anthracite). It sounds contradictory, but these screens provide the best view outside.
Choose your screen type
Optimal view blocks up to 85% heat and minimally restricts your view. Maximum sunblock blocks up to 97% of the heat but also restricts your view.
Pick your shape screen
Besides classic rectangular or square windows, we also make windows in non-standard shapes, such as triangles, trapezoids and circles.
Choose your screen colour
Not every colour suits every space. That is why we offer several colours that are easy to combine with any interior.
Install the screens
Simply and quickly install screens on your windows and enjoy a comfortable and wonderfully cool living environment again.

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.
No, the screens are UV-resistant and hardly fade. Both the fabric and the suction cups are designed to withstand prolonged exposure to sunlight without noticeable loss of quality or appearance.
Thanks to a special coating, the colors stay vibrant for longer and dirt hardly adheres to the surface.
In practice, the screens remain in excellent condition season after season, especially if you clean them once a year and store them clean and dry after the season. This way, they last for many years with minimal fading.
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.

No, the suction cups do not leave any permanent marks or damage on the glass. They attach using a strong vacuum to the smooth surface, without any adhesives or chemicals. After removal, you may occasionally notice a light residue, for example from dust or condensation. This can be easily cleaned with the Sun Eclipse Cleaner and a clean cloth.
