What insulated window covering would you recommend in The Blue Zone?

We live in a small (675sq. ft), tight, well-insulated house with many south facing window in west central Wisconsin. Our double paned, argon gas filled south facing windows heat the house for 10 hrs. on sunny days, even on below zero days. Of course, the windows lose much heat at night. We have in-slab hydronic heat running on off-peak electric through a 10kw micro-boiler, usually running at a water temp of 93-102 frht., which is very comfortable.

我们正在考虑制造绗缝面料的热覆盖物，并看着百叶窗的百叶窗。我们的预算紧张。什么窗户覆盖物具有最佳结果，也很方便使用？！

在猎人道格拉斯蜂蜜梳子的销售文献中，他们说它可以增加5左右的R值。我很难相信这一点，因为他们不会在侧面张贴。根据经验的任何意见吗？

I wouldn't try to make them. The only insulating window coverings that are effective slide in tracks so that they are air-tight. Otherwise convective loops can cause greater heat loss than if there were no coverings.

除非你的技能足以做出像这样的东西窗口被子, I would recommend purchasing them.

I have read about insulated interior thermal shutters several times, typically made from luan and foam board. If someone was skilled and thoroughly detailed about weatherstripping, could these offer another solution? I have no direct experience with this method and would like to hear from those who have had experience.

谢谢罗伯特。

我看到窗口被子也有一个Velcro选项，没有符合卢旺斯，费用较少.They说它表现以及跟踪选项。

In the past I've put 2" EXP or Polyiso foam boards into windows at night for insulation. They did provide good insulation, but because they were not airtight the window glass often chilled below the freezing point, frost formed, then melted in the sun, which created the unintended consequence of water puddles on the windows sill. So I'm still looking for a good window insulation scheme.

a track system or velcro strips to keep the blinds tight is the key. We'll be making some for our double pane, argon filled windows as well.

在想要改善内部窗户覆盖范围内，我在爱德华在类似的地方。我在网上遇到了这个产品：http://www.blindschalet.com/energytracktanslucent38.html.这似乎大多密封在百叶窗周围的侧面。
Does anyone have any experience with these tracks? All things being equal, what are the relative merits of the full quilt designs vs. the double cellulars?

正如我所说，通过必要的技能，它肯定可以制造这些，但是有几十年的商业产品已经有效。我的邻居曾经生产唯一的商业竞争对手窗口被子，舒适的阴影，但在20世纪70年代的石油休克燃料价格后停止生产后，没有人对能源效率感兴趣（但他的30岁的古老色调仍然在许多人工作学校建筑）。

钥匙是侧轨或密封，但最重要的是底部和顶部密封，以防止对流环。使用的最佳材料将包括蒸汽屏障，热屏障和辐射屏障。

另一个选择是使用移动室内脑岛ted covers, which are installed and removed by a quarter turn of a removable crank. The complete instructions to make them are located athttp://www.jcrondiy.com。优势是（1）良好的R值（9 - 16）;（2）密封良好;（3）您无需修改窗口框架。

这是一个良好讨论关于绝缘窗口封面的链接...检查绿色建筑先锋罗杜蒙特的说法......

对于DIY人，（用缝纫机方便）https://warmcompany.com/销售多层绗缝面料，您可以选择在房间上添加装饰织物。其中一个层是铝涂层骨髓，其充当渗透屏障。覆盖密封件通过在墙壁上使用条带磁铁并嵌入织物边缘。制作最简单的系统是罗马百叶窗。看着计划，我认为这也会最好地封印。
