When the outside temperature rises, the home temperature follows the same curve. To prevent this, you can quickly apply sun protection with immediate effect.
In the face of increasingly hot summers, it is essential to protect your home from the heat. From this point of view, air conditioning is often the first solution presented, but it shows its limits, especially in terms of environmental impact. The warmer it is, the more air conditioning uses energy, pollutes and reinforces the urban heat island effect, further increasing the outside temperature. Fortunately, there are greener alternatives, as explained by Saim Bendahan, manager of Repar’Stores in the northern sector of Toulouse.
“Air conditioning certainly meets the need, but we have to think differently and protect the home even before the glazing to prevent heat from penetrating.”
Selection of outdoor blinds
Répar’Stores is a national network based on human values ​​such as ethics, justice and aesthetics. It specializes in the installation and repair of blinds, insect screens, skylights, garage doors, adjustable sun shades and awnings. In addition to the design aspect, these elements are essential for protection from the sun: during sunny days, they reduce the temperature inside the house and protect against UV radiation.
“We offer screen blinds with very good thermal protection. They are made of a technical fabric that transmits 80% of the sun’s rays, and at the same time allows sunlight to pass through because it is micro-perforated,” explains Saim Bendahan.
Some models also have advanced functions such as projection or adjustment according to the angle of the sun. Technical fabric can also be installed on awnings (patio blinds) and vertical blinds so you can enjoy the outdoors without suffering from the heat.
In all cases, outdoor blinds are made of durable materials, designed to withstand various weather conditions.
