Windows without roller shutters let in cold

Windows are terrific features of our homes. They let light in and, when opened, allow fresh air to flood the inside of our homes. However, when the cold sets in, they’re also a major source of heat loss. In fact, according to the Government’s YourHome website, up to 40% of a home’s heating energy can be lost through your windows.

In other words, in doesn’t matter how good your heating system is, if your windows are exposed a good portion of that heat is lost and is a waste of energy and costs. That’s fuel for thought and is why roller shutters can be such a good idea.

However, heat loss, comfort and energy bills aren’t the only things to consider if you are considering installing Canberra roller shutters. There are a variety of other reasons why roller shutters will improve your home.
