Ideas to control heat and cut glare on windows?

Instead of curtains or using the expensive Gila Heat Control Window Film sold by Home Depot, does anyone have ideas on ways or inexpensive products can be used (no aluminum foil, pls) ? Thanks in advance.

    • mounting awnings on exteriors of windows
    • custom made sun screens that attach on the exterior of windows
    • outdoor large cantilever umbrellas
    • sunscreen panels on caster wheels indoors
    • insulating black out roller blinds


    These are not inexpensive, but they are all effective.

    We purchased the solar screens and in Texas it was worth it. Our utility bill is down and it stays cool in the house. Buyer beware! Go with a reputable company or from friends or family. Go see for yourself. These private contractors may provide you with a reference. Go with that person. If it is too good to be true go somewhere else.
