When you work nights, it can be hard to sleep during the day, due to the amount of light coming in your windows. If you were raised to get up by 830 in the morning, you know exactly what I mean, when I say when a certain amount of light hits those windows, your body will wake you up!
So we've always tried to get curtains with liners and blinds, on all our windows, to keep out as much light as possible. Yet, we still get ALOT of light in- as you can see by this picture.
o when I heard about the new Blackout EZ Window Covers that keeps 100% of sunlight out of a room for sleeping during the daylight hours, and were customizable, I knew they might be a great solution for us! The blackout window covers come in pre-cut sizes of small (36" width x 48" length) and large (45" width x 66" length), and in customized sizes. For those of us with 'in the window' ac units, this is agreat, as you can work around the ac unit! You just cut off any width or length you don't need. Easy Peasy! The covers also come in different color combinations of white or black, as well, to better match your needs.
For my window, I received a customized length, as we have the long older home windows. The covers come with their customized hook and loop tape, to make installation a breeze. Check out the how to video on their website for easy to follow instructions! It took me all of 8 minutes to install the cover, and most of that time was peeling off the backing covers for the hook and loop tape!
How well do the covers work? Check out my after picture:
As you can see, the window that is covered, is TOTALLY dark!

The light that is coming in, is from the window on the right, and from the ac unit!
WOO HOO! It has made a HUGE difference in my sleeping- no more waking in the morning hours! And the room? Cooler! Seriously! Since installing the ONE cover, the ac has had to work less, and the room has stayed about 20% cooler, easily! And because the Blackout EZ cover seals tight around the window frame, it will also help during winter, by eliminating cold drafts and keeping the warm air inside.An extra bonus!
The best part of EZ Blackout Covers? You can remove them (if you need to let the light in) or take them totally down and put up on a different window (if you move to a different room or house)! And because they go up with hook n loop tape, there is no damage to your windows, making them perfect for renters as well. The company evens sells it's own De-Solv-it Contractors' Solvent that is a 100% organic citrus smelling adhesive remover, to get all the sticky off the window frame! It is pretty reasonable too!
I am 100% sold on these covers and will be getting 2 more to cover the rest of my bedroom windows! You can buy them directly from EZ Blackout Covers website, and even pay via Paypal!
Check them out and I'm sure you'll agree, EZ Blackout Covers are a shift workers dream come true!
