I live in Charlotte NC
Hot Hot humid
so I thought I would
use my window blinds
on the outside of the windows
to reduce the sun on the glass
so far it has proven to make
the house cooler.
anyone have thoughts on this.
sounds fine, keeping the UV outside the glass is the way to reduce solar heating - same reason folks have awnings in hot climates or use reflective solar film on the glass
alfie they blow in the breeze I thought about a tie down outside but I raise them from inside by opening the window.I haven't figured out how to tie them down once they are down and close the window This is just like you to give me a problem to solve (LOL). Blueangel
I'd be concerned that the sun would eventually rot the fabric and the threads holding the whole thing together. Would not functional wooden shutters be easier all the way around and more eco friendly?
Thank you Carol I did not even give that a thought. and yes I do replace the blinds every couple of years for that reason. Again thanks for opening my eyes.
