Protection solaire architecturale

Whether on the roof or facade, solar shadings are increasingly important elements in building construction or energy renovation because they prevent overheating risks related to increasing heatwaves. TELLIER BRISE-SOLEIL's solar shading systems also perform multiple functions related to the comfort and well-being of users in interior spaces.

On a building, large glazed surfaces (windows, bays, curtain walls, etc.) provide visual contact with the external environment and allow natural daylight into the building. However, the sun, which is a source of primary energy, light, and heat, can also create uncomfortable situations such as overheating and glare inside a building. Implementing an architectural solar protection solution on the facades or roofs of a building (residential, commercial, public, etc.) effectively limits the sun's impact. These solutions are designed to protect from solar radiation during the summer and to let this radiation through during the winter to take advantage of solar heat gain.

Reducing solar radiation through glazed surfaces is one of the most important aspects of summer comfort. Indeed, architectural solar sunshading  limits the temperature rise inside a building by blocking direct radiation, significantly reducing the sun's impact. It also allows for the appropriate daylight levels  according to the task at hand by controlling the amount of incoming natural light. In addition to controlling the light level, architectural solar protection reduces the risk of glare and annoying reflections.

Finally, always located outside against the facade, a fixed or adjustable sunshade ensures perfect protection against summer radiation, guaranteeing thermal and visual comfort for users in the premises. Furthermore, when a building is air-conditioned, an external architectural solar protection reduces or even reduces or even eliminates HVAC cooling demand . Thus, the implementation of a fixed or adjustable sunshade is beneficial in improving summer comfort but also in reducing or even eliminating energy consumption related to active building cooling.
