Window coverings: warmth, shade and a clearer view

Use these steps to plan, check and keep a record of your next actions.

• Choose whether the priority is winter comfort, summer sun, glare or privacy.
• Note window orientation and the times when discomfort occurs.
• Compare ratings and fit for the exact covering and window.
• Check cord safety, access and normal window operation.
• Try a practical opening/closing routine and record the result.
