Worries that conservatory blinds might not work as well as you suspected or that they are not worth the investment is a big concern. We will take a look at some frequently asked questions and answer them. The questions 1) Will the blinds reduce the heat in the room? Yes, they will. There are however some conditions to be met, you will need to choose a suitable fabric and have the blinds properly installed. If the blinds are fitted correctly you can expect up to 75% blockage of the infra red rays of the sun. 2) Will the conservatory blinds darken my room or the rooms next door? No, again this is a matter of the construction material and type of blind you choose. Lighter coloured blinds that does not include a black out factor, and a type of blind that can be adjusted to let the light trough will reduce the darkening factor of the blinds considerably. 3) Will the blinds actually reduce the glare in the room? Again this depends on the fabric and type of blind you use. White colours are known to reflect sunlight and might actually increase the glare. Another factor to consider is the gap spaces between the conservatory blinds. Blinds with bigger spaces and rope holes will create more glare. 4) Can the blinds keep in the heat during the colder days? Yes they can. Correctly installed blinds made from the best material possible will increase the insulation of your room exponentially. Even though you lose heat trough your wall windows the roof windows are the biggest culprits where heat loss is concerned. Warm air rises and will escape through the roof windows. The blinds will prevent some degree of this type of heat loss. 5) Will the conservatory blinds increase my privacy and security? Yes, depending on the fabric and gap spacing on the blinds you will be able create a private haven, the blinds will give you a degree of outside vision while still blocking the view from others. The importance of roof blinds cannot be understated as people living in higher areas than your room will still be able to see in through your roof if there are no blinds. The blinds blocking the view from outside will also create an additional security factor. Criminal elements are less likely to break into a building if they cannot see what is going on inside. 6) Will the blinds reduce the entry of UV rays into my home? Yes, all the types of conservatory blinds and fabrics will reduce the entry of these harmful rays. Tougher, UV treated fabrics that are correctly fitted will provide a greater reduction of these rays entering your space. A reduction in the UV rays will protect your furniture from sun damage and increase their lifetime. This protection will also reduce your risk for skin cancer.
