Window Applications to Help Beat the Heat

Over the weekend many of us will have experienced some surprisingly warm weather, for a moment it seemed like winter was a thing of the past until that cold Monday came back around to bring us back to the chilling reality of February. At least we got a taste of what is to come and I am sure this would have triggered some summer senses and habits for a brief moment, it may have also unveiled some common issues that come with warmer weather.

As we see an increase in a warming climate our springs and summers are getting hotter than the previous year’s, causing our homes to overheat even more and create an uncomfortable environment, particularly those properties with a heavily glazed building design.

During the winter months external shading is often overlooked as it is not something that we will naturally recognise during this period. When we get a warm spell like we did over the weekend then this can often trigger a surge of calls to our offices enquiring about solar protection as they would have experienced overheating issues in their homes. Now is the perfect time to invest in external shading whilst the lead times are quicker and the prices are lower, apply a Caribbean Blinds window application now and beat the heat of 2018.
