Case Study: Battery Honeycomb Roof Blind

Customer: Sue M

Location: The Wirral, UK
Window Size: 1656mm x 2861mm
Product: Electric Battery Operated Honeycomb Openview Blind (Blackout Fabric)

The Challenge

Sue's kitchen diner was roasting in the summer and freezing in the winter.  It was very uncomfortable eating at the dining table under the lantern, and watching TV was impossible.  The kitchen diner was becoming unusable.  The lantern window, which seemed such a good idea at the time, was causing the home to overheat.  Sue's goal was to reduce heat and glare and to make the room usable in the summer months and comfortable during the winter. 

We recommended our battery-operated Honeycomb Openview Blind in blackout fabric (as she didn't have power in the recess and there was a sofabed in the area, so blackout was a good solution— a light and simple self-fit blind which is made to measure for a perfect fit. 

“The room is so much cooler.  The kids are gaming in there again and there is no glare on the tv at all.  The blind makes it such a useable space now.  So pleased thank you so much.”
— Sue, The Wirral

Sue shared some photos during the hot and sweaty install, and she even shared a video of the blind in action (have a look below).
