Shutter BoysInterior shutters in Houston
Houston's seasons, indoors
Indoors, the season shapes how you use each room. Houston's warmest month is August, at an average high of 94.3°F, and its coldest nights come in January, at an average low of 44.3°F.
Highs stay at 80°F or more from May to October: the months when west and south rooms need shade in the afternoon.
Pearland, 16 miles away, has much the same number of days a year at 90°F or more (101).

Bedrooms on hot summer evenings
With 109 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.
Bathrooms and laundry rooms
In a place with 55.4 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.
Room by room in Houston
The median home in Houston has 4.4 rooms, and the most common has 3 bedrooms. With so few rooms, the living room and bedroom are usually the whole order. In Pearland, 16 miles away, the figure is 6.4 rooms.
13% of workers here worked from home in the 2020–2024 survey years. In Pearland, 16 miles away, it's about the same: 14% worked from home.
