Window treatments to keep your home warm this winter

Robert Anderson from Curtain Clean Wellington (The Wash House)

Aren't you tired of sky-high winter power bills? Start with your windows to stop the cold from getting in.

Aren't you tired of sky-high winter power bills? Start with your windows to stop the cold from getting in.
BRANZ, an independent research organisation, says:

• 42% to 45% of heat in houses insulated to Pre-2007 requirements is lost through windows.
• If your home has been built or renovated under the 2007 Building Code, which requires double glazing, you still lose up to 31% of heat through windows.
• Properly fitted curtains and blinds can cut heat loss through single glazed windows by 60% and double glazed windows by 40-50%.

Choosing the right window treatments will help insulate windows and prevent heat loss. Here are three options to answer your "how can I warm up my home?" this winter.

Honeycomb Blinds
Honeycomb blinds are one of the most energy-efficient window treatments. They are also known as honeycomb or cellular shades. These window coverings feature a honeycomb structure to make an air pocket between the window glass and the room that acts as an insulator, blocking heat and keeping the cold out.

When a heater is running, Honeycomb blinds reduce heat loss through windows by up to 60%, which equals around 10% savings on your heating energy. In hotter months, honeycomb blinds reduce unwanted heat from the sun through windows by up to 60% when installed with a tight fit. They are available in different layering options, including single and double-cell.

Heavy curtains or drapes
Drapes or curtains are another way to insulate your home by adding one extra barrier against the cold winter air. The main difference is that curtains are sized to fit the window, and drapes reach the floor.

Kia ora,
I am looking for a lovely flatmate to come and join me in a lovely 3 bedroom very sunny house in Northland/Wilton.
I am a mature early childhood teacher in Thorndon and have one 3 year old cat that lives with me. Would you like to join us too?

The weekly rent is $300 which includes internet. Power and cleaning products will be split between us as required.

The house has a garden, carport, is fenced and looks out over Otari bush.

The Number 22, 13 buses leave right outside the neighbours house and run through the city and past Vic University.

Ideally there would only be myself and one other living here as it would be great to be able to keep one of the rooms spare for guests or an office if needed.

Here is the trademe post. trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=3570043565

All questions welcome
