Thermal Curtains
Thermal Curtains
Thermal Curtains can be a great option to help keep the cold out as the weather turns blustery and wintery. Our range come in a variety of different colours and thickness levels so you can find the perfect thermal curtains for any room in your home.
There are many benefits to dressing your windows with thermal curtains, including:
- Saving energy bills: Thermal curtains can reduce draughts coming into your home through your windows, helping your heating system to warm the room more efficiently.
- Reduce sound: As thermal curtains have quite thick linings, they can also have an effect on sound proofing too which can be helpful if you leave in a busy, built-up area.
- Reduce light pollution: Also available are blackout thermal curtains which can help to keep the light out on those bright sunny mornings.
- Cooler rooms in summer: In the summer months, thermal curtains can help reduce sunlight and heat entering into the room which conversely helps keep rooms cool during summer heatwaves as well.
At Virgo Interiors, we have a wide range of fabrics, colours and styles to suit any décor in your bedroom. From solid block colours including blacks, whites, greys and more to patterned thermal blackout curtains.
Another option is to install a thermal curtain lining. For eyelet curtains these are easy to attach with eyelet clips which clip onto the lining as per the spacing of your curtain eyelets, then simply hook onto the eyelets and press into position. For pencil pleat curtains, they simply attach using standard curtain hooks, hooking the lining onto the existing 3” tape on the pencil pleat curtains.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do thermal curtains really work?
Thermal curtains are designed to block heat transfer through windows, keeping cold air from entering. The insulating layers and reflective materials in thermal curtains help retain warmth inside, helping to make your home more energy efficient and keeping your home warmer in colder seasons.
What material is best for thermal curtains?
The best materials for thermal curtains often include densely woven fabrics or those with added insulating layers. Example fabrics which make for great thermal curtains include polyester, velvet, suede or blends with thermal linings. Additional materials with reflective surfacing, such as aluminium coating, enhance the curtain’s ability to regulate temperature. Choosing materials with a tight weave and insulating properties helps ensure that the curtains effectively serve their purpose.
What are thermal insulated curtains used for?
Thermal curtains are used to regulate temperature inside a room by providing insulation against external weather conditions. They are commonly used in homes and offices to reduce energy costs by minimizing heat loss in winter, and conversely preventing excessive heat gain in the summer. They help to create a more comfortable and energy-efficient living environment.
