The answer is yes! Both interior and exterior window treatments help block out the summer heat and give you some added privacy. Using lighter colored blinds can also reduce the temperature in your house.
When considering window treatments, try to avoid heavy curtains and drapes, they tend to not wear as well in the heat and humidity.
We recommend drapes, shutters, or faux wood blinds for the best temperature control. These are also good for filtering out direct sunlight, blocking harmful UV rays, protecting your furniture, and canceling out excess noise.
Adding new window treatments to your home will help block out the summer heat before it ever enters the room. They will keep your house cooler during those Florida summers!
