Hammond's seasons, indoors
Indoors, the season shapes how you use each room. Hammond's warmest month is July, at an average high of 83.9°F, and its coldest nights come in January, at an average low of 15.2°F.
Highs stay at 80°F or more from June to August: the months when west and south rooms need shade in the afternoon.
Gary, 8 miles away, has 10 days a year at 90°F or more, fewer than Hammond's 16.

Living rooms on winter evenings
125 nights a year fall at or below freezing. Closing the shutters after dark puts a layer of still air between the room and the cold glass; open them again in the morning so the window dries out.
Street-facing rooms
73% of homes are detached houses, where front rooms face the street. Tier-on-tier panels let you close the lower half for privacy and open the top for daylight.
Bathrooms and laundry rooms
In a place with 40.4 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.
| Feature | What matters | What we suggest |
|---|---|---|
| Bedroom | Darkness, privacy, airflow | Full-height panels, 3½ or 4½ in louvers |
| Living room | View, daylight, glare | Wide louvers, or tier-on-tier on the street side |
| Kitchen | A wipe-clean finish | Painted poplar, café style over the sink |
| Bathroom | Steam and privacy | Painted poplar with a fan, out of shower spray |
