What are Real THERMAL Blackout Blinds for Standard Windows?      

 Blackout blinds that are currently sold on the Web for homes are normally a roller blind fitted with blackout fabric. This does perform a function but it will not stop all the direct light from entering the room. Light will still come in all sides of this fabric, so technically the blind is NOT blackout. Some people may fit curtains with blackout lining to try to stop the remaining light but this is expensive and in cases still does not produce good results.  

The Eco system allows the blind to be placed at any position from fully opened to fully closed. The fabric runs down two side rails similar to our best selling Solas blackout system, which stops the light from directly entering the room. A seal system on the bottom operating handle contacts the window sill blocking the light from entering. This total light control system is discrete too, with slim sections on the top and sides of the window and nothing on the bottom sill, it blends into the room decor with ease. 

Energy Saving Features

The Eco range has been design to firstly be in control of the light which enters the room, from fully opened resulting in maximum light, to fully closed which will eliminate all direct light. They have a verified heat loss saving from at least 25% heat loss reduction (BBA Tested), the blinds are also designed to reduce solar gain. In the summertime, the white reflective backing on all the blackout fabrics reflects the sun's rays and therefore stops the sunshine from heating the room. In the wintertime, the thermal fabric and the 'sealing' effect of the blind, traps the air between the fabric and the glass. This prevents air from circulating around the window and thus stops the air from being cooled by the glazing pane, reducing in heat loss through the window.
