Handy tips

Curtains and blinds are an inexpensive way to help keep your house cool.

Here are some tips how:

The simplest and most inexpensive way of keeping the house cool is with drapes and curtains as these are effective in blocking out the sunlight.
Alternately, you may opt to use indoor and outdoor blinds for sliding doors or windows. These also drastically lower indoor temperature in a similar way.
For new homes or for a more modern feel, consider installing more contemporary vertical blinds, shutter blinds and roller blinds.
Some blockout blinds even come lined with blockout fabric that offer greater privacy in addition to sunlight blockage.
An awning is another great alternative to keep the home cool. Certain awnings have a retractable feature for when the weather is mild.

Use these tips provided to make considered choices when looking for alternatives to home cooling solutions. Search through our listings to gather quotes for awnings and curtains near you.
