Rolling Shutters In 2 American Cities
If you live in a climate that is sunny and hot for most of the year, such as San Diego or Las Vegas then you certainly understand the importance of window coverings. But we don’t mean just any covering. We’re referring to the shading, cooling, and protecting effects that a rolling shutter offers. These heavy-duty window coverings provide more than home security. At Rollac, our rolling shutters are a popular product in both of these cities for several different reasons. Read on to learn why.
Sun Fading
With over 266 days of it a year, San Diego is one of the sunniest cities in California. With a view of the mountains on one side and the Pacific Ocean on the other, residents have built homes that capitalize on these beautiful views. But the intense sunshine can wreak havoc on a home’s interior. The sun emits U.V. rays that can be harmful. The insides of our homes including, furniture, wallpaper, art work and other décor can fade dramatically and be damaged by the rays. Installing a rolling shutter over the exterior of your windows is an effective way to prevent this type bleaching effect. They block 100% of all UV rays and natural light, protecting your home’s valuables including irreplaceable artwork or expensive home furnishings. In the San Diego metropolitan area, there are several Rollac dealers that can help you measure, choose and then install the right rolling shutter for you. All you have to do is go on our website and locate your closest dealer.
Heat Protection
Though the average temperature is 80 degrees, temperatures for many months out of the year in Las Vegas are often in the triple digits. To put it mildly, Vegas is hot! That desert heat is usually accompanied by an expensive electricity bill as residents try to keep their homes relatively cool. A large source of energy loss in any house is through the windows. It is estimated about 76% of sunlight that hits a standard double-pane window enters to become heat in the home. One of the most effective ways to reduce if not eliminate this source of heat is by adding a window cover. At Rollac, our dealers are in demand, installing rolling shutters throughout the city of Las Vegas. Not only do they provide a solid barrier of protection from heat entering the home, but they do double duty by keeping that valuable cool air in.
Shade
Las Vegas is known for its 24-hour casinos and late night entertainment venues, but with that comes hundreds of shift workers. These men and women work while the rest of the city sleeps and as the sun rises, they return home to prepare to sleep. Many homes have rolling shutters in Las Vegas for this specific reason. Casino workers, stage performers, and maintenance staff who work overnight can only get a restful sleep if they are in a room free of natural light and noise. The rolling shutter is a perfect tool to accomplish this. Not only does it block the sun but it also silences any street or city noises that might wake a person.
Las Vegas & San Diego
Hot and sunny are the two words many people use to describe both Las Vegas and San Diego. But if you live in either one of the cities, those two factors can damage your home’s interior, increase your energy bill, and for Las Vegans disrupt your sleep. Installing rolling shutters is a tool that will help you enjoy all that both these places have to offer.
