The perfect way to refresh those tired looking vertical blinds, our range of replacement Thermal Vertical slats lets you choose only the fabric part of a vertical blind. Our replacement vertical blind slats are made to measure to ensure they look perfect in your window, and come ready to go for you to simply attach to your existing headrail. Our slats are 89mm wide and are made to the drop measurement and quantity you supply. Please note you will not receive a headrail with these replacement slats – just the fabric part of the blind.
Our vertical blinds are ideal insulators for your window. A dimout fabric really comes into its own in the summer when it creates shade whilst preventing glare, which helps to keep the room cool. However it is the blackout vertical blind that is perfect for winter. The fabric is thicker and the weave is denser (the fabric is often backed by a PVC or foam backing) which prevents air from passing through the blind.
What are the benefits of Thermal Vertical Blinds
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 do they insulate your windows, they look stylish at the same time, and we offer a large variety of blinds to choose from.
How do Thermal Vertical Blinds work?
A thermal blind requires no additional work from you to function, it is simply the nature of the blind. In essence, having anything in your window will improve the insulation of your room simply because it creates a barrier, however our thermal blinds are often made from a slightly thicker fabric that ensures the amount of air moving from the room to the glass and vice-versa is kept to a minimum. By breaking up this convection current, the warmth stays in the room and the cold stays close to the glass.
Do Thermal Vertical Blinds work in the Summer?
All blinds are ideal for the summer as they create shade. In the hottest months a thermal blind will work in reverse to what it does in the winter – it will keep the room cool and stop the heat entering the room. Again, this is because it creates a barrier that blocks sunlight. An added benefit of this is that the sun’s damaging UV rays are also blocked from entering, which means your furniture will be protected from fading or damage.
