Solar shading not only keeps the sun outside but also blocks out heat 🥵 We call solar shades ‘passive coolers', but you should not underestimate their impact on reducing incoming solar gains thereby affecting the indoor temperature, especially during hot weather ☀️ Studies show that solar shading can lower the experienced temperature in a room by up to 5°C. By blocking or filtering sunlight, solar shading devices, such as blinds and shutters, prevent excessive solar heat gain inside the room. Reducing solar heat gain means you likely won't need to use air conditioning as much, which cuts down on energy use and saves you money on utility bills. Plus, solar shading keeps indoor temperatures more consistent and reduces glare, making your living or working space more comfortable. So, solar shading not only helps cool the room but can also boost energy savings and overall indoor comfort 👌

Environmental benefits of energy-efficient windows!!! Energy-efficient windows offer several environmental benefits, including a significant reduction in carbon emissions Energy conservation: Energy-efficient windows are designed to minimize heat transfer, which means they can effectively insulate your home. By reducing the need for excessive heating or cooling, these windows help conserve energy and reduce the reliance on fossil fuels for electricity generation. Lower carbon footprint: Traditional windows can contribute to higher energy consumption, leading to increased greenhouse gas emissions. Energy-efficient windows, on the other hand, help decrease energy usage, resulting in a lower carbon footprint for both residential and commercial buildings. Reduced reliance on air conditioning and heating: By providing better insulation, energy-efficient windows can help maintain a more stable indoor temperature. This reduces the need for excessive air conditioning or heating, which in turn lowers energy consumption and carbon emissions associated with climate control systems. Improved natural lighting: Energy-efficient windows are designed to maximize natural light while minimizing heat gain. This allows for better utilization of daylight, reducing the need for artificial lighting during the day. By relying more on natural light, you can further reduce energy consumption and associated carbon emissions. Long-term sustainability: Investing in energy-efficient windows demonstrates a commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility. By choosing windows that reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions, you contribute to a greener future and help mitigate the impacts of climate change . .. ...

Reducing bills and CO2 emissions: why infrared heating is the silver bullet we need Together with Michael Sura dived deeper into infrared heaters peculiarities, and here’s what we gathered: First, the best feature of all: infrared heaters provide instant warmth without the need for ductwork or pipes, so no energy is lost in distribution. These heaters warm up objects like furniture, walls, and floors, which then slowly release the heat. Infrared heat feels cleaner and drier than traditional heating methods as it warms objects directly rather than the air. Plus, infrared heaters convert all the electricity they use into heat, giving us 100% efficiency! A comprehensive study by iHelios compared three heating systems: an infrared heating system, a traditional heat pump, and central gas heating. Over a year, the infrared system proved to be more economical. Infrared panels have similar running costs to heat pumps and gas boilers but are cheaper to install. And if your electricity comes from renewable sources, infrared heating is a much greener choice than gas. Infrared heating combined with heat pumps and smart-home systems is the future of home heating. Yes, the initial setup might cost more, but the long-term savings in energy and money make it a no-brainer for reducing bills and CO2 emissions. With all this in mind, I believe that together, they are the most effective and cost-efficient solution for homes, helping cut both bills and CO2 emissions. #heating #energytech #netzero #sustainability

1wcooling 5 degrees more with air cond. will cost just a fraction of this shading installation. Not to mention the easy mount of AC.
