I have two slant/top windows on either side of the chimney in my greatroom. U n fortunately they are on the west and the sun comes in in the afternoon and heats the room up. Can anyone suggest a local window treatment shop the could advise me of a covering that could be pulled during the summer, but pulled back during the winter when the sun is very welcome. Thanks in advance.

I dont know about 'locals', but if you go to Home Depot, Lowes, etc. witht the measurements, they can special order vertical blinds for it. Or if you want to save some money, you can do the same thing 'factory dircet' by using one of the ads out of the back of any home improvement magazine, or just Google it. Years ago I used a company from a magazine for a specail order blind for my old house. It was a win/win. The cost was about half of using the retail stores. They were exellent quality and served me well for years, and I believe are still being used in that house 6 years after I sold it.
