Aloha's seasons, indoors
Indoors, the season shapes how you use each room. Aloha's warmest month is August, at an average high of 81.9°F, and its coldest nights come in December, at an average low of 39.6°F.
Highs stay at 80°F or more from July to August: the months when west and south rooms need shade in the afternoon.
Beaverton, 3 miles away, has much the same number of days a year at 90°F or more (15).

Street-facing rooms
71% 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.
Early light in June
Around the longest day the sun is up for 15 h 41 min here, so east-facing bedrooms get light very early. Full-height panels with the louvers closed keep most of it out; a mounting frame closes the gaps around the edges.
Bathrooms and laundry rooms
In a place with 39.3 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 |
