Saving energy with window decoration

With energy prices soaring, it pays to save. Your window decoration can make a bigger difference in this than you might think!

The role of window decoration in saving energy

Your roller blinds, pleated blinds or Venetian blinds; you probably hang them in front of your windows for a bit of extra privacy and because they add atmosphere. But there is another important role for your window decoration: it can also help you save energy. And that is a nice bonus. Especially now that energy prices are so high and you prefer not to turn up the heating too much.

Every type of window decoration has energy-saving advantages

Applying energy-saving measures is a hot topic right now. There are several ways you can save energy. You can go big; by insulating your walls and floors better, or by buying solar panels. But you can also make your home more energy-efficient by doing smaller things. For instance, by installing draught strips and by window decoration. Each type of window decoration has, to a greater or lesser extent, a mainly insulating effect. This means that your window coverings ensure that heat stays in your home. (Also works the other way round; keeping cool in your home in summer). An effective way to save energy. The thickness of the fabric layer determines the degree of insulation. The thicker the fabric, the better the insulation. So you can pay attention to this when buying your new window decoration.

Let the sun warm your home

You want to use your window coverings to keep the warm indoors, yet outside can also give you a hand. On a nice, sunny autumn or winter day, let the sun warm and light your home!
