What are the best energy saving blinds for Canberra’s climate?

Having the right window blinds installed in your home not only affords you beautiful natural light and privacy but will also insulate your indoor spaces from Canberra’s extreme weather.

Via their detailed measure and quote system, Regency Knights’ ensure their custom-made blinds solutions will fit your home perfectly, ensuring optimal insulation and energy efficiency.

The amazing insulative properties afforded by the honeycomb blind can provide significant energy savings.

The air pockets in the honeycomb cross-sections act as insulators. This reduces heat loss through the windows and blocks the outdoor elements.

According to the Australian Energy Foundation, honeycomb blinds are the most energy-efficient option on the market.

Because of their design, less heat escapes your home in winter. Their aluminium foil backing keeps your home cool in summer too.

Similarly, Thermotek Roman blinds have excellent insulative properties, contain multi-layered thermodynamic interlining, have six layers and provide fantastic airflow.

What type of blinds should I get?

The right set of blinds can transform your home by providing style, privacy, and dramatic improvements to the thermal function of your living spaces.

One of Canberra’s leading blind companies, Regency Knights offer premium-quality, custom, made-to-measure blinds that when installed improve the look and function of your home.

For over 45 years, Regency Knights have been Canberra’s blinds, curtains, awnings, and shutters experts.

Their wide range of blind offerings are available in a host of styles, colours and fabrics, and include:

  • Honeycomb blinds – Renowned for their energy efficient insulation design, the honeycomb pockets trap air for thermal protection while letting some light through.
  • Roller blinds – roller blinds help control light and privacy and are made of thicker fabrics that are great at controlling temperature.
  • Roman blinds – Similar to roller blinds, Roman blinds are made of thicker fabrics and offer complete control over how much light comes in. The key difference is Roman blinds have folds whereas roller blinds are a single unbroken piece of fabric.
  • Vertical blinds – A common option for big windows and sliding doors that need easy and regular access.
  • Venetian blinds – Comprise of adjustable slats that allow you to control both the angle and amount of light coming in.
  • Outdoor blinds and awnings – Surrounding an outdoor entertaining space with custom-built awnings offer both weather protection and privacy.

Additionally, all the different types of blinds available come in a range of fabrics including heavier blockout blinds material; decorative blinds; dual blinds; and lighter Verishades.

How much do custom-made blind systems cost in Canberra?
