Did you know that a dark bedroom is vital if you want a good night's sleep? A bright sunny room is fantastic during the day and can lift your mood. But if the sun streams in too early, it will disrupt your sleep and get you up on the wrong side of the bed. Skylight blackout blinds are the answer to this and many other window-covering conundrums. Are you wondering how to cover your skylight or which roof lantern blinds to get? Then keep reading for our handy guide on the benefits of blackout blinds for your home.
A Good Night's Sleep
The darkness of night is what signals your brain and body that it's time to get some shut-eye. In our modern world, though, the sun or street lights and lights from our devices, watches, and chargers can light up our room and confuse these signals. The key to fixing this confusion is by creating a dark room. Blackout blinds at your windows and skylights will eliminate unwanted outside light. This is one of the reasons Scandinavians sleep so well during their 6 months of sunshine. Cover your loft windows, make your room as dark as possible, and you'll reap the benefits of oodles more sleep.
Thermal Efficiency
Here's a fun fact for you: did you know that thermal lining can help reduce heat loss from your windows by up to 25%? The tightly-woven fabric lining of blinds for a skylight will create a barrier between a cold window and the rest of your room. This easy hack will help keep your room warm and cosy in winter and help to insulate your home. But that's not all; blackout blinds can keep you cool in summer, too. That same fabric barrier will keep the heat out on a hot summer's day, and reflect it back outside, rather than into your room.
Reduce Your Energy Bills
When the thermal efficiency of your home is increased, it'll mean lower energy bills - a must-have during the current price hike. By blocking out the summer sun, your home will stay cooler, so you may not need to use a fan, or can reduce the setting on your AC. But we all know what central heating bills can be like, and let's face it - they aren't pretty. If you trap the heat in your room with skylight blackout blinds, you'll be able to turn the heating down and save money. In fact, turning down your thermostat by just 1 degree could save you over £100 in heating every year!
The Benefits of Skylight Blackout Blinds
