sure - sitting in the dark is crap. Then venetian blinds tilted or those great slatted shutters (probably expensive)....

apart from that, I’m more the Swedish than the southern Spain type

yes, sure, but especially with insulation, once you have heat in the house, it is difficult to cool the house down

Sultry heat does not cause pleasant sluggishness, it causes discomfort
Even our buddy from Argentina is not enthusiastic and [verschattet]

Properly [verschattet] rooms are not dark

So much has already been written, but now I want to contribute something as well

We have roller shutters on all the windows, which are operated with a crank. The question crank or strap did not come up with our builder, so I was initially surprised after the windows were installed with the crank-operated roller shutters. That was one point we hadn’t taken care of.
The advantage of the crank for me is that I can raise or lower the roller shutters, which are 2.4 m wide on the large windows, without any effort. My neighbors pull up their similarly wide roller shutters with much more force or just let them fall down. The strap has already broken several times. Another point is that the straps get dirty quite quickly – even if the hands are clean. I can quickly wipe down my crank handles, but that’s not so easy with straps.
Overall, I couldn’t do without roller shutters. For example, this morning I closed the roller shutters on the east side, partly even on the north side, then the roller shutters on the south side. We still have enough light.

What kind of dirty paws do you all have that your straps get so dirty? My parents retrofitted roller shutters with straps in their very old building from 1880 sometime in the 80s. Over the years, one or another strap was also replaced. And of course, they are no longer as bright and white as when installed, but still far from dirty or even filthy.

We have no heat/sun protection on the house. The builders simply didn’t care about it (built in 2005). Therefore, after we moved in, we equipped the south-facing windows and patio doors with [Plissees]. They are not visually dominant and are flexible and easy to adjust. Completely sufficient for us. Inside the house, it is even colder at these temperatures than in the new apartment with electric roller shutters that we lived in before.

I have three relatively small windows facing south (each about 1.5m²), they are not shaded. So far, I don’t notice at all that the house heats up a lot. Upstairs it is very pleasant, when I think of the single-family house I used to live in... that was an oven compared to this. At the moment, I look forward to the summers quite optimistically.

The house is overall very sluggish, in my impression.
