What Can I use on My Windows if I don't want blinds?


Hi fellow builders! I have a question that I was hoping someone can help me with. I have these beautiful 12ft windows that open to my backyard. I need some covering over the windows to keep out the heat, but I don't want blinds to ruin my view. Does anyone know what I can do?

Hello IntrigingInterior,

I actually just remodled my house and i had a similar issue. I did not want my furniture to get damaged from heat and I could not stand keeping the blinds closed all day long. I found Bekaert Panorama Window Film, which is a film that protects your furniture and still keeps your house cool. I hope this works out for you. Good Luck!

You can use UV protected window films over your backyard window it will protect you from heat plus scorching light.
