Hi @Nuggets 

 

I suggest having a look at the Coolaroo 2.4 x 2.4m Graphite Crank Operated Outdoor Blind for your outside window. It has a 5-year fabric warranty and does not use cords or chains to safely operate.

Good Evening @Nuggets 

I like the look of the outside blind that @EricL has shown. The curtains should do a decent job of blocking the heat, the outside blind will have a +3 effect (taking a guess on the number lol It will probarlly double the effect I would think)

Hi @Nuggets 

 

That Coolaroo 2.4 x 2.4m Graphite Crank Operated Outdoor Blind for your outside window @EricL suggested work very well, I just installed one last week in front of a large cubby that copped a lot of afternoon sun. The air-gap between the blind and wall also act as another layer of insulation.
