Climate control solar blinds

One of the greatest problems with heating and cooling of the home or business has always been the windows. Of the heat lost in the home, 80% of that is lost through the windows.

The best way as of yet to deal with this problem is to block the windows with heavy drapes or films. This works to some extent to cure the problem, but now we have lost our view or the solution only works for certain times of the year. Here in comes the simple yet remarkable product, Climate Control Solar Blinds. This product comes as a standard application (roller blinds, vertical, european sliders and panels) and is installed in the same fashion.

That is where the similarities stop and the science behind the blinds take over. The blinds are made from a patented material called "Inflector" and function in two very unique ways.

In the summer the blinds face with the reflective side out diverting 72% of the radiant heat back out of the home, 92% of the UV rays are also stopped and they prevent 65% of the solar heat build up inside the house. All of these elements leading to a massive decrease in the work load of air conditioning units in the hot months of the summer. As well as the shear difference in the comfort level of the home.

Now comes the colder time of the year with a simple switch of the blind around to the black side facing out you have created a passive solar collector. The material collects the suns heat and transfers it into the house. A single 4foot by 4foot window will produce 2096 BTUs of heat per hour equivalent to a 600watt electric heater in the window but without the cord. Also by flipping the blind now the reflective side is facing inward and most of that radiant heat that escapes your house in those cold winter nights is reflected back in where it belongs.

The other great feature of the blinds is with either side there is 100% daytime privacy and very little lose of the view that you spent so much money on in the first place. In all the blinds offer a 20 to 40% yearly energy savings and with today’s energy cost it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out the savings to the consumer.
