Energy Efficient External Blinds for Winter

External Blinds | External Roller Blinds | Blinds | Caribbean Blinds | Energy Efficient

Are you doing the most to keep your home running energy efficient? The winter season is fast approaching and energy costs are rising, poorly insulated homes can drain money during this season, money that can be easily saved by investing in effective solutions to help improve the homes energy consumption and retain heat.

Windows and doors are some of the main areas in which heat loss can occur; with more modern homes incorporating more glazing into their designs and creating feature pieces, this can create vulnerable areas. Double and triple glazed windows and doors can aid in slowing the process of heat loss successfully, if installed correctly by glazing experts.

Our external blind range is best known for preventing solar heat gain effectively, surpassing the capabilities of the even the best performing interior blinds, blocking up to 97% of the sun’s incoming short wave radiation and naturally cooling the home without the use of energy burning air conditioning systems and fans.

A great solution for the warmer seasons yes, but also a great insulator in winter. Our Antiguan External Roller Blind and Cayman Roof Blind trap a layer of air between the glazing and underside of the fabric, providing an extra layer of insulation for your windows, doors, conservatories, and roof lights, helping to retain that extra essential heat to keep your home running more efficiently and saving you money on heating year on year.

You may be thinking it is a big investment just for a bit of extra insulation for the glazed areas in winter but our exterior blinds are more than that, they are an all season solution that will save you money on both heating and cooling for years to come, providing a thermally and visually comfortable indoor space, free from glare.
