Sunlight fading carpets - will net curtains help?

theradfords

We are fortuntate enough to have a very sunny house, the sun pours into the dining room. However this is causing our carpet to fade. If we put net curtains up at the patio doors will this stop the carpet from fading any more?

Thanks

I don't think net curtains would do any good,the sun would just come striaght through them.I had blinds up at mine.Then you can just adjust them as to how the sun comes through.

Hi, I had this problem in the hall/stairs - there were nets on the window that did not help. It got so bad it was like a patchwork carpet ! I eventually bought a new fade resistant carpet, one year on so far , so good.

I think blinds would be best.
