Prepare Your Home For a Heatwave.
Surviving the Soaring Temperatures: Easy Ways to Stay Cool and Comfortable at Home
As the winter season comes to an end and the temperature begins to soar, ensuring your home remains cool and comfortable becomes an absolute concern. In this concise and effortless handbook, we will delve into practical advice to conquer the scorching heat.
Strategic Ventilation
In the midst of a scorching heatwave, the timeless conundrum of whether to keep windows open or closed gains utmost significance. To evade the stifling atmosphere, it is advisable to seal your windows shut during the peak hours of intense heat.
This precautionary measure will effectively hinder the invasion of warm air into your abode. However, as twilight descends and temperatures gradually dissipate, it is prudent to unfasten your windows, enabling the gentle wafts of cool breeze to gracefully permeate your living quarters, revitalising the ambiance within.

Improved air flow
Enhance the air circulation in your living space by strategically positioning fans in vital zones. Opt for ceiling fans, oscillating fans, or box fans to efficiently circulate air, bringing about a refreshing breeze and providing essential respite during scorching heatwaves. Moreover, it would be prudent to contemplate the installation of attic fans to effectively extract hot air from the upper levels of your residence.
Minimise heat sources
Discover and mitigate potential heat sources within your abode to avert sudden temperature surges. Be prudent when extinguishing lights and electronic devices when they are not actively utilised, as they have the propensity to emit heat. For those fortunate enough to possess a fragment of outdoor space, contemplate the idea of preparing meals al fresco. In the event that such space is not at your disposal, you may opt to employ diminutive appliances during periods of elevated temperatures to curtail the accumulation of heat within your culinary domain.
Picking your perfect shutters!
We understand that selecting the perfect shutters for your home can be quite overwhelming, given the wide range of options available. However, there is no need to worry because we are here to provide you with some helpful guidance. If you are looking to keep your home cool during scorching heatwaves, we have the ideal options for you: our full-height or tier-on-tier shutters.
Both styles offer complete coverage for your windows, ensuring maximum protection. For those seeking a more personalised touch, our tier-on-tier shutters are an excellent choice. With two independent sets of panels, one positioned above and another below, these shutters give you the freedom to control each tier separately.
This allows you to close the bottom section for enhanced privacy while still enjoying ample natural light filtering through. It is the perfect combination of functionality and aesthetics, designed to cater to your specific needs.
