Sun shining through windows heats rooms quickly. Blocking it is easier than cooling it.
Tips
- Close coverings on east windows in the morning and west windows in the afternoon
- Light-colored, reflective backings help
- Outdoor awnings and shade trees block sun before it hits the glass
- Consider solar control window film on very sunny windows
- Open windows at cool times of day for cross-breezes
