Building thick walls

Thick walls do us good. First of all, insulation is its number one asset, with thick walls it is easier to keep warm in winter and cool in summer.

In addition to keeping a pleasant temperature throughout the seasons, thick walls also help to soundproof your home against noisy neighbours.

However, building thick walls in your home is not always the best solution in terms of light.

Are thick walls a light choice?

Thick walls can be a bad choice, you only need to have a combination of thick walls and windows that are not large enough and your home will automatically be darkened.

There are many factors that can add to this combination: the shade provided by nearby dwellings, the orientation of the sun on your facades or even green spaces on high ground.

If you are already a homeowner with thick walls, it is necessary to find a solution to bring back light.

Light reflector VS thick walls

There are many good practices to bring light into your home with thick walls. It is possible to paint your walls white, to adopt furniture with pure colours or to enlarge your windows if it is conceivable.

The Light Reflector solution is completely suitable for this situation. Window reflectors can be installed to redirect the light rays in your thick-walled home according to the slope you choose.

In addition to being easy to handle and install, the Espaciel Light Reflector will allow you to save electricity by avoiding switching on artificial light during the day.
