Climate Considerations for Window Treatments in Port St. Lucie

The city experiences hot, humid summers with average highs in the 90s and mild winters that rarely dip below the 50s; high humidity and frequent afternoon rain showers are common throughout the year. Given these conditions, we recommend window treatments that withstand moisture, reduce heat gain, and provide UV protection.

Port St. Lucie Shades That Resist Heat and Sunlight

With long, sunny days, managing indoor temperatures is a priority for Port St. Lucie homeowners. Our first option, solar shades, filters out UV rays while maintaining outdoor views. They're an excellent window covering for expansive windows and sliding glass doors. They have minimal light gaps and come in 130+ fabric/color choices.

Hunter Douglas Solar Shades protect home interiors from fading. They come in five opacities, made from sustainable materials from the GreenScreen® Sea-Tex™ fabric collection. Layering solar shades with drapery adds another level of insulation and light control—choose from light or heavier fabrics.

Port St. Lucie Shutters That Resist Heat and Humidity

The high heat and humidity levels in Port St. Lucie make careful window treatment material selection vital. While hardwood shutters are stunning and durable, they can be susceptible to damage over time in those conditions. Fortunately, there are other choices.

Composite shutters have a classic wood profile but resist moisture damage. NewStyle® Composite Shutters come in five color choices and look like genuine wood but feature composite materials. Hunter Douglas manufactures them with Truemill® dovetail construction and a low-luster Finetech® finish.

Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters offer the highest heat and moisture resistance levels, guaranteed by the Palm Beach Promise™. They also have interior aluminum bracing, resin blocks for added strength, and a water-resistant Polysatin™ compound.

Port St. Lucie Blinds for Privacy and Light Control

For Port St. Lucie homeowners, there are a few selections in the blinds category. Hunter Douglas EverWood® Faux Wood Blinds come in over 50 colors, and you can control light and privacy by tilting the slats. These durable blinds feature Performance Plus™ Protection, so you won't worry about warping, bowing, fading, or discoloration.

We suggest Skyline® Panel-Track Blinds for Port St. Lucie homes with tall and wide windows. This unique design has vertical, 11 ½" or 17" fabric panels that slide effortlessly along a track. Bottom weights are integrated into the panels, which stack tightly, thanks to Hunter Douglas proprietary hardware.
