Best Blinds to Keep Heat in
With energy bills higher than they’ve ever been, you may be looking at alternative ways to stay warm during those colder winter months. Finding the right shading solution is a very viable way to reduce your energy bill, especially as installing the right blinds can help retain the heat in your home.
With over fifty years’ experience supplying our blinding and shading solutions for a myriad of luxury properties across the region, Broadview are well-equipped to explain to you the best blinds for heat conservation. Read on to learn how we can design and install the right blinds to keep the heat in your property.
Selecting the right blinds to help keep your property warm
There are many types of blinds that you can choose to help stay warm in your property. Blinds best retain heat when they are not slatted, so we would best advise opting for roller blinds or Roman blinds for your home.
Although slatted, we also recommend elegant Venetian blinds, provided they are installed with a really well insulated fabric and are tightly closed.
Choosing the right insulating fabric
Picking the right blind fabric is key for optimising the heat retention inside your property. We recommend thermal fabrics and blackout blinds, which are the idea options for conserving heat.
We have a wide range of high-quality window blind fabrics from some of the UK’s top manufacturers, ensuring we can design your ideal practical and stylish set of heat retaining blinds.
Ensuring a perfect Fit with your Windows
In addition to keeping privacy levels, to best keep the heat in blinds should be properly fitted to your windows, sitting as close as possible, and even with a little overlap. Any significant openings between the blinds and the windows will lead to heat loss.
Here at Broadview, we specialise in perfect fit blinds that reduce the gaps between the edge of the blinds and frame. What’s more, with its unique fitting system, they can be installed without the need for drilling or screwing.
Adjust your blinds throughout the day
To fully maximise the heat retention levels, it’s best to adjust your blinds throughout the course of the day; open your blinds in the morning to allow the sunlight in to heat your home. When the sun sets, close your blinds to minimise heat escape.
Conservatory Insulation
We also specialise in conservatory blinds that serve to retain heat through the winter. Our energy saving & performance blinds consist of Louvolite fabrics, which have energy saving classifications to identify the cost savings you can achieve as a result of reducing your carbon footprint.
What about Shutters?
We also recommend our window shutters are another shading alternative to better insulate your property.
From more traditional to a modern contemporary style, we have a wide array of colours and finishes to accommodate your specific design needs.
