5 Reasons to Consider Skylight Blinds
Skylight blinds are a great addition to your home to control how much sunshine comes in. Learn the reasons to buy them here.
Did you know that Bognor Regis is one of the
sunniest places in the UK? With around 1,920 hours of sun each day, Bognorians get a healthy dose of annual vitamin D. But you don't have to head to West Sussex for some good old British sun - just look to your windows! Windows in a home let in oodles of light, and skylights are perfect for long thin Victorian layouts or tricky terraces. But what are the benefits of skylight blinds? And do you need them? Here are five reasons to consider skylight blinds for your home.
1. Help You Sleep At Night
Owning a skylight in your bedroom can give you enviable views of the stars. But to get the best night's sleep possible, you need a dark environment.
Experts agree that the bedroom should be quiet, cool, and dark for us to get a good quality slumber. Bedroom skylight blinds will block out all light until you're ready to welcome it in again the next morning.
2. Reduces Harsh Glare
Just a hint of sunshine and we're heading for the beach, but be sure to pack your sunglasses! At certain angles and times of day, the sun's glare can be very harsh and obtrusive. Skylight shades will eliminate that unpleasant glare while letting in light at the same time. That way, you can enjoy the sun year-round without it getting in your eyes.
3. Increased Thermal Efficiency
With the cost of energy skyrocketing, we're all looking for ways to be more energy-efficient. Did you know that you can keep a house cooler in summer with blinds? And you can keep it warmer in winter, as well. Depending on
the blinds you choose, some fabrics will keep the heat of the sun out, cooling down a room. And our window coverings can also stop warm air from being lost through the windows. This results in a warmer home and lower heating bills.
4. Reduce Fading
We've all seen it - that favourite armchair with the faded arms, or that patch of carpet under the sofa that's darker than the rest. However much we love it, there's no denying sunlight causes fading. You can control the amount of sunlight in the home with skylight shades. By simply closing blinds when a room's not in use, you'll keep your furniture looking bright and perky for longer.
5. Add Beauty to Your Interior
Skylight blinds come in a variety of colours and patterns and can add a splash of warmth and interest to your decor. No matter your colour scheme, you'll find window coverings to suit. Warm reds and calming greens can spark courage or induce relaxation, for example. And neutral shades add a touch of cool elegance and sophistication to any home.
Reasons to Consider Skylight Blinds for Your Home
Having a skylight in your home adds a stunning feature, bringing in natural sunlight and opening up a space.
