Living room: 40%-60% shading of curtains over roller blinds​

home of blinds

The living room emphasizes enough natural light, so the curtain shading rate does not need to be too high, to meet the function of heat insulation and weakening strong light, generally around 40%-60% is enough.

 

At the same time, the living room is also a reflection of the “appearance level” of the home, so the choice of curtain combination pays more attention to the ornamental, plus a layer of soft and beautiful window screens (the shading rate of window screens is generally 30%), the living room appearance level is immediately improved.

Bedroom: 55%-90% shading of curtains over roller blinds​

In order to meet the sleep function, the choice of bedroom curtains over roller blinds pays more attention to practicality, mainly reflected in the benefits of natural light on human health. For example, in the early morning of the next day, the weak to gradually brighter light can be thrown into the bedroom, relatively dark environment, our mental state can be more soothing to accept the gradually changing environment of light, and it will be easier to get up, so it is generally not recommended to fully blackout curtains over roller blinds.

 

Note: children’s room and the elderly room, the shading rate of the curtain is best not too high.

Children’s room: 50%-70% curtains over roller blinds​

Children are more insecure about the environment, sleep in a completely dim environment, wake up more often at night and cry, and it is not conducive to the child’s good work and rest. In addition, the lack of natural light in the children’s room is not conducive to the health of the child, such as vision, bone development and so on.

 

Therefore, the shading rate of children’s room curtains can be 50%-70%, and the shading rate of older children or children’s room curtains with severe west sun can be slightly higher, depending on the acceptance of light by each child.

Elder room: 60% blackout rate​

The elderly are used to going to bed early and getting up early, and the vision is gradually weakening, the room is best to have sufficient natural light, and the shading rate of the curtain is about 60%, which is more conducive to the health of the elders.

 

Generally speaking, double curtains are more suitable for the elderly. The thin gauze curtain of the inner layer can be drawn during the day to properly adjust the indoor brightness and prevent the elderly’s eyes from being stimulated by strong light.

 

The outer layer is made of cotton curtain, which has good air permeability and can ensure a certain warmth, especially at night, and can avoid the elderly from getting cold.

General bedroom: more than 70% shading rate​

We need to understand that the curtains over roller blinds is not a tool to close their own, most people’s bedroom curtain blackout rate of more than 70% can be protected from sunlight and night light pollution, and then with a good sleep to naturally wake up, so we do not need to “full blackout” too persistent.
