Keep your cool with DCB

Purchasing window coverings from Dollar Curtains & Blinds is a great way to enhance your interior design scheme, but more importantly it will also save you energy and money.

The right window coverings will insulate your windows, resulting in greater control over the interior temperature of your home and significant savings on your power bills.  Uncovered windows are responsible for up to 50 per cent of unwanted heat gain in summer and up to 40 per cent of heat loss in winter.  A 1C fall in temperature in your home adds 10 per cent to your heating bill. Conversely an increase in temperature in summer adds significantly to the energy required for cooling.

DCB specialises in a number of products that can make a difference to your energy consumption and your bank balance. DCB’s curtains create a trapped layer of air between the fabric and the window, which results in an insulating air pocket. Studies demonstrate that curtains made from block-out fabrics can reduce heat gains by 33 per cent.

Alpha Awnings from DCB are ideal for regulating the amount of solar energy that reaches the facade of your home. They can greatly improve your home’s energy efficiency in summer, reducing solar heat gain by up to 77 per cent on windows.
