How much do window frames matter in the thermoregulation of homes?

Here we are, summer is just around the corner and temperatures are not taking long to rise: thanks to climate change, it is increasingly frequent to go from cold to hot without much preamble. But if it is true that the saying "there are no more half-seasons" today seems more realistic than ever, it is equally right to highlight the leaps forward made from a construction standpoint to guarantee increasingly high levels of living comfort, allowing the maintenance of the ideal climate in every season: thus, thermal insulation (cappotto termico) and underfloor heating and cooling systems, not forgetting the replacement of window frames, are among the most requested renovation interventions.

What role do window frames play in maintaining the ideal temperature in a room?

During the summer months, homes can become excessively hot, especially if exposed to direct sunlight and if the walls are permeable to external heat. Window frames are effectively the first card to play to combat excessively high temperatures at home: it would be good practice to air out rooms early in the morning and in the evening, keeping windows closed during the hottest hours and taking advantage of shading systems.

Shutters and roller blinds are perfect in this sense because they allow you to create shaded areas while letting in the ideal amount of light so as not to make the room completely dark.

And what if the window frames are of an older generation?

If your home's windows have had their day, you can take advantage of the Renovation Bonus to replace them by turning to reliable retailers who can recommend the right window frame taking into account the climate zones they belong to, and who are also able to guarantee an installation compliant with current regulations.
