Our Responsibility to the Environment
At Newco Solar Solutions, we strongly believe in reducing our impact on the environment, and that’s why we are passionate about the products we sell. By reducing heat gain, you can reduce energy consumption and save money. By protecting your furnishings, you can extend their life, resulting in less furniture, carpeting and flooring being sent to the trash.
We also strive to reduce our environmental impact as a business by recycling all materials in our plant and office facility to reduce as much waste as possible.
Over the years, we have served many commercial and residential clients with window tinting services in Coquitlam. This is an attempt at reducing our carbon footprint. Since buildings and automobiles with tinted windows have reduced heating and cooling needs, they reduce the usage of AC and heating appliances, resulting in lower energy consumption. Less use of energy also lessens our reliance on fossil fuels. Our eco-friendly approach creates greener buildings and is a step in the right direction. Visit us or shop online to make an environmentally friendly choice. If you have any questions, please feel free to get in touch with us. We will be happy to help.
FAQs
The following are some commonly asked questions about our window tinting in Coquitlam:
-
Q. I want to reduce glare but don’t want to lose my view – do you have something that will do this?A. Yes – in order to reduce glare, you must reduce light. Our custom made Newco solar roller shades will reduce up to 99% of the glare as well as heat and UV rays.
-
Q. Do these shades provide privacy?A. Solar shades will give “daytime” privacy or where the light is greater. If it is dark outside and light inside, people can see in and you will not see out, unless you turn your lights off.
-
Q. Do you have shades that will give privacy?A. We do have a line of room darkening and light filtering roller shades that will reduce light, heat and give you privacy day and night.

Q. I have an arched upper window – should I install a solar shade?A. No – roller shades must be horizontal and cannot follow an arched or angled detail. If you require a product to accommodate this type of window, we may be able to make a fixed frame into one of these shapes. Please feel free to contact us for a consultation regarding roller shades in Vancouver.
