Polywood Shutters Solve All Window Facing Issues in Jacksonville
As every window faces different directions, you will want a window treatment that can handle both sun glare and heat loss. Some time during the day, your windows may collect direct sunlight which can heat up the room. Alternately, a window may struggle with overpowering sun glare.
As each window facing handles sun glare and heat loss in a different manner, is there a single window treatment in Jacksonville that is best for a room?
Polywood® Shutters Work Better Than The Others On Windows That Face East Or West
Your Polywood plantation shutters can also block sunsets on west facing windows. Because heat and humidity usually accumulates throughout the day, you may also have the additional trouble of the late day sun making everything uncomfortable. While your rooms may only be heated up for a few hours, the temperature change might be enough to make your space seem hot and stuffy unless you use a window treatment that also blocks heat.
Polywood® Shutters Are Better Than Other Treatments For Windows That Are Situated North Or South:
For heat issues, you should get a window covering that is energy efficient. Polywood plantation shutters stop air flow because they use solid faux wood louvers and weather stripping, which makes them one of the most energy-efficient window covering available. Compare to other treatments, our Polywood shutters employ an energy efficient insulation system that is 70% more efficient than hardwood shutters and 1600% more efficient than aluminum blinds.
Do Other Window Coverings Perform As Well As Polywood Shutters?
If you have a room with windows that only face one direction, you have a larger selection of treatments. A sheer cellular or roman shade could work wonders for windows that are set east or west. Their translucent nature will diffuse the glare but will still give a hint of light that enlivens the room.
When you have north- or south-facing windows, you need to worry about energy efficiency over dealing with glare. If heat is only a backburner issue, you might try a real wood plantation shutter, like our Ovation® line, or perhaps a product like our reclaimed wood shutters.
Spaces that have windows on a corner wall or two may need a more versatile covering that will deal with glare and block heat. This is where our Polywood plantation shutters are the perfect covering because they are both energy efficient and adjustable. During times when glare is at its peak, you can direct sunlight so natural light still is present, but the blinding rays can’t become too warm for your windows. And while plantation shutters can help solve facing problems, they also blend in with many decor styles.
