Because of increased bills, people are consulting to try a very simple action that can make home warmer.

Instead of costly investments or heating increases, this quick trick can significantly improve the sense of heat and cost nothing.

What is the solution?

Experts say a slight change in the routine of closing curtains could positively affect the preservation of heat.

By closing them in at the right time, you can keep more heat inside and prevent the cold from entering

Speaking of Ideal Homes, Gordon Wallis of Your NRG said:

“Rolettes lower heat loss by 13504%, 15% curtains, and properly installed thermal curtains increase isolation to 25%”.

To benefit the most, he suggests closing the curtains at sunset, immediately after sundown. In winter this could be at 4:00.

That helps keep the heat inside and stop the cold coming in. He also warns against letting curtains hang in front of radiators because this blocks heat and prevents heat from spreading into the room.

In the morning, as the sun rises, it is recommended that he quickly open the curtains to introduce as much natural heat as possible and to reduce the need for central heating. /Periscopi
