Blackout Blinds
Skylight Blind Installation Toronto
The blackout blind can convert day into night excluding even the brightest sunlight, which makes it perfect for rooms that require total room darkening such as bedrooms or TV/entertainment rooms. Perfect for afternoon siestas and light summer nights.
If you choose a VELUX blackout blind, you will enjoy total blackout plus optimal heat protection.

Review: As the definition above suggests, this blind is particularly effective at completely knocking out the light. It is the blind that we install most often. The white cloth material on this blind is completely opaque and runs down channels on either side of the skylight and is almost completely smooth from side to side, except for the occasional small wrinkle.
USER TIP: IN THE WINTER
When a blind is closed during cold weather, the heat of the house does not reach the glass and keep it warm. This can cause condensation to form more readily between the blind and the skylight. So remember to open your blinds everyday, to allow air movement to reach the glass.
