Thermal Wood Blinds

Both our Real Wood & Faux Wood Venetian Blinds can be used to improve the insulation around the windows in your home, when the slats on your Thermal Venetian Blind are fully tilted into the closed position, they create an insulating layer which will act as a shield stopping cold air from the outside world from entering your home via the windows. If you’re worried about this causing condensation building up on your windows during the Winter, we’re way ahead of you! By opening the slats, you will restore airflow to the window, which will dry up any condensation, before closing the slats again to restore the insulative layer.

What are the benefits of a Thermal Wooden Venetian Blind?

Thermal blinds are a great way to insulate your windows and to stop the cold from entering your room. They create a barrier between the glass and the room, keeping the warmth on the inside and the cold out. This means not only do you enjoy a warmer room in the winter and a cooler one in the summer, you save energy and even reduce your heating bill! Not only will our Thermal Venetian Blinds insulate your windows, they look stylish at the same time, and we offer a large variety of Thermal Real Wood Blinds and Thermal Faux Wood Blinds for you to choose from – With a wide range of slat colours and coloured tapes to choose from.

Will Thermal Venetian Blinds keep my home warm during the Winter?

The short answer to this is yes! As when your Thermal Venetian Blinds are set to the closed position, they will create a solid layer of wood (if you opt for real wood) or plastic (if you opt for faux wood) both of which are excellent insulators. This solid layer of insulation will keep the cold air outside where it belongs and trap warm air in your home to ensure that you’re equal parts cosy and toasty!

Will Thermal Venetian Blinds keep my home cool during the Summer?

Again, the answer to this question is an emphatic YES! The same principle that keeps cold air out of your home during the Winter, will help keep hot air out of your home during the Summer The only difference between how these thermal venetian blinds work in the Summer is that the sides are reversed, meaning the blinds trap lovely cool air inside your home and prevent warm air from passing in via your windows.

How To Measure For Your Thermal Wooden Venetian Blinds

Choosing your faux wood or real wood thermal venetian blinds is just one element of bringing your home to life and it is important to ensure you measure correctly for custom made thermal venetian blinds as this will ensure you are happy with your look. To measure thermal venetian blinds to fit a standard window simply measure the height and width of the window recess. When putting these measurements into the dimensions and before blinds are added to your basket, please select the recess option. We will do the rest of the calculations for you! If you want your thermal venetian blind installed outside of the recess, please measure the appropriate length and add 70mm to the top and bottom and 50mm to the sides of your measurements to account for light leakage on windows. Further advice on measuring blinds for standard, bay and angled bay windows can be found in our measuring guides.
