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

Bedrooms on hot summer evenings
With 102 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.
Living rooms on winter evenings
48 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
69% 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.
| 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 |
