I have a west facing fully glass enclosed lanai and need shades drawn 1/2 way especially in the afternoon to block some of the heat producing rays. Sunsets are great. Also have a fan that I turn on high and open sliding doors to house to “cool it off” which doesn’t really work effectively in July and August. Also have a birdcage outside area which I have never sat in because of heat and afternoon sun.
