Save hundreds of euros per year

Research shows that with good window coverings in a detached house, you can save up to 270 m3 of gas per year. The average gas consumption of a detached house in the Netherlands is around 1900 cubic metres (source), which means that with the right window decoration, you can save around 14% in energy costs. With today's high gas prices, a detached house can easily save €800 to €1000 per year. Exactly how many euros you can save depends on the type of home you live in, the number of people in the house and the type of window coverings.
