Installing your Sun Eclipse screens: step by step

You’ve received your Sun Eclipse screen(s) and are ready to install them. Good news: installing our sun shading screens is quick and easy, with no drilling or screws required. In this blog, we’ll show you step by step how to attach your screen(s) properly and how to enjoy them for as long as possible.

TIP!
Keep the original packaging and accessories. This allows you to store the screen neatly when putting it away in autumn. When storing it, make sure not to fold the fabric, once folded, the creases will not disappear.

Installing Sun Eclipse screens: here’s how!

Step 1: prepare the suction cups

Installing the screen starts with preparing the suction cups. First, disassemble the suction cups and place the flexible part (part A) in a bowl of boiling water. Leave it there for at least one minute. The heat restores the rubber to its original shape, making it easier to attach.

Step 2: clean for optimal adhesion

Proper adhesion starts with a clean window and clean suction cups. Use the included alcohol wipe or, even better, the specially developed Sun Eclipse Cleaner. This ensures the surfaces are grease-free and allows the suction cups to adhere optimally.

Remember: good preparation is key to long-lasting performance without coming loose.

Step 3: attach the screen to the window

Now it’s time to place the screen on the window. Start with the top two corners. Press the suction cups firmly against the glass so they adhere properly. Then continue with the remaining attachment points, ensuring the screen sits tight against the window.

Step 4: finalize the installation

To secure the screen, unscrew part C and briefly remove the fabric. Then place part B over part A. Reattach the screen and tighten part C completely. Repeat this for all mounting points.

Your screen is now firmly and neatly installed, ready to block the sun.

Frequently asked questions

At Sun Eclipse, we continually strive to provide our customers with the best possible support. For this reason, we have collected and answered the most common questions in our FAQ. This way, you can easily find answers to all your questions.

Go to FAQ
  • Do Sun Eclipse screens stay put during strong winds?

    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.

  • How many suction cups will my Sun Eclipse screen have?

    The suction cups are a maximum of 100 cm apart. If your screen has a length and/or width that is larger, an extra suction cup is placed halfway so that the maximum distance between two suction cups, measured along one side, is never greater than 100 cm.

  • Is a Sun Eclipse screen sustainable?

    Sun Eclipse screens are made of sustainable material, last a long time and ensure lower energy consumption when using air conditioners. It is the simplest solution to indoor heat.

  • What does excess fabric mean?

    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.

  • Will you come to my house to measure the windows and install the screens?

    Sun Eclipse is an affordable indoor heat solution. That’s why we are online only. By letting the customer do the measuring and assembly, we keep costs, and therefore prices, low.
