The energy saving blind that brings you total blackout
It s a Why is BlocOut extraordinary? Thanks to our innovative engineering, the BlocOut blind can bring complete and total darkness to a living space. Great for sleep problems, photosensitivity, restless babies, night shift workers, these intelligent, inexpensive blinds are the perfect solution to creating a dark, relaxing sleeping space. They are also useful additions to multimedia rooms, classrooms and high tech environments. So with its wide range of features, exceptional margin, fast turnaround and consistently excellent customer service, it s anything but ordinary. complete blackout blind.
The same technology that keeps light out, also keeps heat in. BlocOut is the first blind to have gone through an independent thermal testing process by the BBA and has been proven to save 43% on heating costs for single glazed windows, 33% for double glazing and 12% for triple glazed units. The simplicity and efficiency of BlocOut s fabric means that it reflects the sun s energy in the summer time, reducing air conditioning costs. So why does BlocOut make such a difference? When positioned appropriately, a BlocOut blind will trap a small volume of air between the blind and the window. This creates a barrier that helps to avoid the warm air inside the room coming into contact with the cold surfaces of the window. This reduces the need for heavy curtains which often restrict air movement, allowing the room to heat up faster. But it s also an energy saving blind. Curtains trap hot air preventing it from circulating in a room. This can promote heat loss. BlocOut creates an energy efficient barrier that minimizes heat loss and allows radiators to heat a room more quickly.
