Thrive Life. Thanks for the review. I’ll check it out
And now, another episode of “this wont work”
Lots of south facing windows and heat. The plan was to put mylar blankets, on the outside. They were fastened to the hurricane window frames with binder clips.
Epic fail
1st. One of the mylar blankets tore as it was being unfolded. This was from
Swiss-Safe.It got tons of positive reviews on Amazon, but it was junk. It kept taring with rips all over. I had another one which was included in a pre packed first aid kit and it held up.
2nd.The wind. Binder clips kept coming off the frames and thus the blanket. It just wasnt gripping. It was windy today with 15 mph winds. What ever the solution it will need to hold up to windy days.
So either use them inside or use the ones for car windshields; they are big enough and are ( sturdier ) than the flimsy mylar sheets.
I’ll probably need a room ac for the bedroom. I have horizontal casement windows. So either use a portable ac ( which are pricey) or see if I can remove one of them and use the window units. ( affordable and apparently more efficient )
