Looking for a budget product to block most of the light and maximum heat from bedroom windows.
Hey yall, my upstairs bedroom windows gets blasted by the sun from sunrise to sunset. I have 2 issues I need to solve. Block as much light as possible from the morning sun without totally blacking out the windows (We like the view, its just too damn bright at 6am) Block as much heat as possible, it becomes the hottest room in the house in the afternoon. Currently we have blackout curtains on a rod, but light leaks around the edges and doesn't do enough to block heat. I think a window film/tint would be the best, but so many are marketed as "privacy film" - I dont care about privacy, only light and heat. I also don't have hundreds to spend on the best product, so if anyone can recommend a cheaper product that will help me solve this, I'd really appreciate you. Thanks. submitted by /u/dontbetoxic [link] [comments]
