Using Window Shades Can Save You Money

Article Category: Home Management

Author Name: Jennie Keithson

Realistically speaking: 30% of the cooling and heating efforts in your home are lost through your windows and doors. In most houses, there are more windows than there are doors so look at your windows if you are looking for the cause of major loss of energy. With the right window treatment such as window shades, you can also look at saving your hard-earned money instead of paying more for electricity. At any time of the year, whatever the season is, window shades can significantly reduce the use of air-conditioning or heating system in your home.

Winter/Cold Weather

During the winter time or in countries where the climate is colder, a bare window will draw the cold into your house and let heat escape. To prevent this from happening, cover your windows with window shades made of thick and sturdy fabric. During the day, keep the window shades open to allow as much sunlight in. It is better to use roller shades to control the amount of light coming into your home.

As night time comes, close your roller shades completely in order to prevent the heat from escaping through the window. Not only will this keep your home warmer, it will save you from using your heater too much, thereby saving energy and money for your family.

If your house is an old house with windows that are not well-insulated, you should make use of roller shades that have thermal insulation.

Summer/Warm Weather

During the summer or in countries where the weather is mostly warm, putting in roller shades on your windows are definitely cost and energy saving. Instead of losing almost half of your cooling efforts through your windows, protect yourselves and your wallet with roller shades.

At daytime, close the window shades to keep out the heat from the sunlight. If you don't want total darkness during the day because that will lead to you opening the light on, use roller shades instead. If you are at work the whole day, then it does not matter if you left your house in the dark. It may be in the dark, but it will be much cooler when you come home.

If you use a white-colored shade for a brighter effect, it will also reflect the sun's heat away from your home.

Roller shades come in different designs but here are two different varieties to choose from. Both are popular and with different uses.

1. Motorized roller shades are great for those hard-to-reach windows in the house. It also can modernize a home and add value to it. With just the touch of a flick of the remote, you can easily transform the mood of your home from a well-lit room and turn it into total darkness. This kind of window treatment is great for those working the night shift and needing to sleep during the day.

2. Reverse rolling shades are great for giving your home the finished look. As the name implies, the rolling action is reversed and faces the window instead of facing the interior of your home.

Roller shades are now widely available in several fabrics, texture to fit any homeowner's budget and décor.
