Sun Shading Louvres are a Gateway for Sunlight

Posted on by Danpal

Louvres are one of the best ways that architecture can offer indoor dwellers the opportunity to enjoy a bit of the outdoors even while they’re sitting in a room. Why should nature be experienced only during the months when we traditionally participate in outdoor activities? When you’re inside, the daylight outside your window is irresistible. Louvres allow that daylight to come inside. But what happens when the sunlight coming in becomes too intense and the glare makes it impossible to see with any clarity? Once again, it’s louvres to the rescue. In the case of glare, it’s sun shading louvres that can make the difference by blocking the glare and creating shade, so that you decide how much of the sunlight to admit.

How Sun Shading Louvres Work in Different Seasons

We require different things from nature and nowhere is this more apparent than with sunlight. How much sunlight is just enough? Sun shading louvres manage that balance: they can let in more direct sunlight when it’s the season for turning on the heat; when it’s time for air conditioning, the louvres can block the direct sunlight from coming in. Over the course of the building’s life span, energy consumption is actually reduced.

What Sun Shading Louvres Offer for the Environment

It might seem hard to believe that the way you ventilate your building can have an ecological effect, but it’s true. Sun shading louvres work especially well in structures that have a significant window surface. The louvres can shield the interior space from the intense effects of the sun; namely, high temperatures and glare. Temperature alteration of this nature can keep rooms cool without needing as much air conditioning. That reduction in mechanical cooling leads to more energy efficiency and money saved. A sustainable lifestyle benefits us as well as the environment and sun shading louvres can help with that smart move.

The very nature of aluminium is its charm because it can take a beating from the elements and still retain its strength. In fact, aluminium’s strength-to-weight ratio makes it especially convenient to use.

The Environmental Appeal of Aluminium Louvres

Aluminium is already an affordable building material; add that to the money you’re saving with your air conditioning and your heat and you’re looking at a practical and economical way to cut expenses as you cut your carbon footprint.
Louvres have been around since the medieval era, where you’d find them on turrets or roofs to provide ventilation. It would have been a fairly primitive addition to the architecture of the period, but fortunately, there have been some innovations since that era. Under the innovative direction of Danpal, a building company with over half a century of experience in the industry, the DANPAL®LOUVRE SYSTEM provides maximum control over heat and light. Balancing heat and light doesn’t just have implications for the comfort of those who are inside the structure. Louvres also affect the building itself, enhancing the exterior and utilizing shading to relieve the heat load of a building. Louvres are a vital asset in the move toward sustainable buildings, and aluminium louvres bring their inherent strengths to this design. Because of their flexibility, durability, esthetic appeal and environmental advantages, aluminium louvres are a popular and affordable choice to reduce heating bills while promoting sustainability. Aluminium is recyclable, so it can be processed and used multiple times while retaining its physical traits.
You want a house that looks nice. You want energy bills that are within reason. You want to be comfortable. With aluminium louvres, you meet all of these metrics without stinting on esthetic appeal. It’s time to look to aluminium as one of the solutions to our environmental needs.
