More daylight in your home is a welcome addition, but it’s not so pleasing when it strikes when you’re still catching that restful sleep. That piercing luminosity isn’t the only thing that can disrupt your sleep. The heat that subtly enters through the window also makes sleeping very difficult to do, and can even induce headaches in the morning.
At Silver Leaf Contracting, we’re more than just installers of shingle roofs. We’re also window experts! In this post, we share bedroom treatments that result in better sleep.
Roller Shades
These blackout shades are the most economical and easiest to install to protect you from the early morning glare. Unlike other shades, their sleek design allows them to fit into any window frame and match any window style as well.
Drapery
Depending on the size of your drapes, they can cover the entire window completely – blocking out the light completely. Essentially, these are blankets for your windows and are great if you want to completely negate the luminosity coming from your windows.
The only downside to drapes is that they are mostly made from heavy fabric. While this blocks out the light, it can also become hot when it’s exposed to heat and light for a long time. Additionally, it can make a small room look and feel crowded.
A More Permanent Solution
Ask your local asphalt shingle roof companies and they’ll tell you that a more permanent solution to your roofing problems is the best solution. The same goes for your windows; drapes and shades do work, but the best solution is installing replacing your old window with a high-performance one.
At Silver Leaf Contracting, we install high-performance windows that boast tight weather sealing that prevents excessive heat loss and gain. The result is a window that stays relatively cool to prevent the morning light from heating your room.
