Exterior blinds for shading in summer

The upper floor of a typical gable roof house is in no way inferior to a penthouse apartment. Especially not in its behavior towards the star that shines down on us all.

Usually, it does because it is located in a different place. The penthouse apartment is mostly in the city or surrounded by many more houses, so you have a completely different climate than in a village. There, the stones of the surrounding houses store the heat. In a village with forest and fields around, that is not the case. I can tell you, when I drive from our place to Berlin, the temperature rises by several degrees where the first continuous buildings begin. In summer, that can quickly be 5 to 8 degrees.

If you think you can simply reach the outside temperature through open windows, you will probably be disappointed.

Well, no one here expects to bring the 30 degrees from outside into their living room. But probably means it just because we like to let the sun into the house. We had wonderful sunshine today, also inside the house. Nevertheless, normal temperatures prevail inside here at the moment ...

Whether someone likes a [Raffstore] or not is a matter of personal taste.

Here, BW, new building with [Raffstore] S-slats, rail-guided.

- We have light inside the house and still shaded

- I like it warm, but in a new building, without shading? Never. You can ventilate all night long, you won’t get rid of it. And if it’s 30 degrees outside then inside it’s 35 degrees (or more) if the windows are not shaded.

- The plastic shutters in the old house rattled more during gusts of wind than the rail-guided [Raffstore] do now.

- Ours need a ground-level [40 seconds] to go down. But honestly, who cares? I don’t have my outhouse outside and have to wait for the blinds while suffering from diarrhea. Either they go up or down centrally controlled without me noticing, or I press the button and then do something else. Don’t need fast runners. :p

Usually it already does, because it is located somewhere else. The attic apartment is usually in the city or there are many more houses all around, so you have a completely different climate than in a village. There, the stones of the other houses around store the heat. In a village surrounded by forest and fields, this is not the case. I can tell you, when I drive from our place to Berlin, the temperature rises by several degrees where the first continuous buildings begin. In summer, this can quickly be 5 to 8 degrees.

Do you have multi-family houses only in big cities and single-family houses only in villages with up to a maximum of 1000 inhabitants? Really?

Well, no one here expects to bring the 30 degrees from outside into their living room. But probably means that just because we like to let the sun into the house. We had wonderful sunshine today, also inside the house. Nevertheless, the temperatures inside are currently normal ...

Huh? No? I just mean that in summer it’s unbearable if you have windows facing south or southwest and don’t properly shade them or lower the blinds. finds that totally great, though. Which is her good right, but it probably applies a lot less to the general public than my feeling does. I have no idea how you come to the conclusion that everyone who doesn’t want to melt away in their living room in summer inherently dislikes the sun. That is, sorry, nonsense. : I live in a town of 6,000 people. Many farms, hardly any industry. I don’t think that argument holds there.

The area called Eiskeller is one village away .... guess why, and it also often has 5-10 degrees less than Berlin Mitte
