As the summer months approach, many people look for ways to keep their homes cool without relying entirely on air conditioning. One simple and cost-effective method is the use of curtains. This article will explore how curtains can reduce heat and provide a more comfortable living space.

How Curtains Reduce Heat
Blocking Sunlight: Curtains act as a barrier to the sun's rays, preventing them from heating up your room. By closing the curtains during the hottest part of the day, you can reduce the temperature inside.
