Curtains, blinds, or other effective window coverings are an essential way to ensure your home is healthy. Here’s why.
Curtains are good for insulation
Curtains reduce the amount of air exchange between a cold window and the rest of the room. For keeping heat inside the home, high-quality curtains can reduce heat loss by around 40%. This means you will be less susceptible to illness in winter, and will save money on your heating bill.
The insulation efficiency of curtains depends on the fabric type (closed or open weave), colour and weight. Curtains also act as effective insulators to help keep your home cool in the warmer months.
Dust build-up and allergens
Curtains prevent allergens from getting into your rooms. When your windows are open, dust particles and pollen enter your home. Curtains act as a barrier and collect these particles. They also prevent moisture from condensation on windows entering your room at night.
Because curtains collect these particles, it is important to keep your curtains clean to prevent mould, dust and pollen build-up. Mould in particular will result in a less healthy home and is associated with several health problems.
Correct curtain installation matters for a healthy home
Curtains should completely cover the window and be as close to the window pane as possible, particularly if insulation or light-blocking are your priorities. This effectively ‘seals’ the room from heat, moisture and light exchange through windows.
