What Types of Blinds Keep The Sun Out Of Homes?
Whilst we all love the sun and are happy when it comes around, that’s usually when we are out and about enjoying it. However, when it comes to the sun in our homes, many people want to block it out. Some people might be wondering why and most people want to block the sun out of their homes to help reduce overheating, help aid nighttime sleeping and to prevent disruptions to their daily routine. As the summer is in full effect, that means you’ll notice the sun nice and bright and early, as well as late at night as well. The right type of blinds could help to block out the sun ensuring you have a good night sleep.
In addition to this, the sun can also cause some rooms to easily heat up, meaning they become uncomfortable to work in, be in or sleep in, this could lead to loss of sleep, the inability to work or even do simple things such as watch the TV. Once you realise how much the sun disrupts the inside of the home, you’ll likely find yourself also asking what type of blinds help to keep out the sun. In this blog, we’ll aim to cover a number of the best types of blinds to help keep the sun out of your home.
Top Blinds To Keep The Sun Out
Blackout Blinds
Blackout blinds, do exactly what they say, they blackout everything. Blackout blinds are specially designed to block out light and heat, ensuring your room is kept cool in the summer and free of any disruption to the sun. And in the winter, they also offer the thermal benefits of keeping your heat in the room as well. Blackout blinds are highly popular and mainly come in the roller blinds. Some people opt for blackout blinds on their own or they pair them with another type of blinds. In addition to blinds, there is also the option for blackout curtains.
Venetian Blinds
One of the oldest and most popular types of blinds are venetian blinds. Venetian blinds come in a wide range of colours, thicknesses and material options. Most venetian blinds will either be wood, metal or plastic, all of which provide the same light resistance. However, many people find the thicker materials and deeper blind options provide much more light resistance compared to thinner options.
Vertical Blinds
Whether it’s a home or business, you’ll see vertical blinds everywhere. However, many people associate vertical blinds with being made of a fine material and whilst this is true for most cases, there are other options available. Heavy weight material and pvc vertical blinds offer the perfect alternative to traditional vertical blinds and help provide excellent resistance from the sun as well. In addition to this, one of the reasons vertical blinds are so popular is they can easily be cleaned and even washed; ensuring they look great for years to come.
