Four Corners's seasons, indoors

Indoors, the season shapes how you use each room. Four Corners's warmest month is July, at an average high of 93.6°F, and its coldest nights come in January, at an average low of 49°F.

Highs stay at 80°F or more from April to October: the months when west and south rooms need shade in the afternoon.

Horizon West, 8 miles away, has 129 days a year at 90°F or more, more than Four Corners's 113.

Bedrooms on hot summer evenings

With 113 days a year at 90°F or more, close the louvers on sunny afternoons so the bedroom isn't holding the day's heat at night, then tilt them open for air once the sun is off the glass.

Bedroom shutters

Bathrooms and laundry rooms

In a place with 51.4 inches of precipitation a year, damp rooms stay damp longer. Wood shutters suit a bathroom with a fan, kept out of shower spray; run the fan so steam doesn't sit behind closed louvers.

Children’s rooms

Shutters have no cords. In Canada, corded window coverings have been regulated since May 1, 2021, and in the US the Consumer Product Safety Commission tells families to choose cordless window coverings.
