When the mercury in the thermometer starts to head upwards as summer gets into its stride, it's often tempting to throw open as many windows and doors as possible to let as much air as possible flow through the house. But when the air outside becomes warmer than that inside, and windows and doors are opened in an effort to equalise the temperatures, that results in the cooler air being unable to escape.
In a climate such as that experienced in many parts of southern Europe and the United States, the easiest solution is to then install some form of air conditioning. But in typical British weather conditions, when temperatures rise above 25 degrees Celsius on only a handful of days in a typical summer, a more cost-effective solution is to combine energy-efficient composite windows and doors with a fan or other ventilation system.
This is because the fan can be either set automatically, or switched on and off manually to give total control, providing cooler air only when and where it is needed. The composite door can then be left closed, maintaining a house's security, and keeping noise from outside at bay.
Add to this that a composite door can be designed to suit individual tastes, and to complement the rest of a house's style and dcor, and there's no real reason for wanting to hide it by leaving it either partly or fully open.
Instead, a cooling fan can circulate that colder air into every part of the house, and keep all members of the family from overheating. Meanwhile, because of their excellent insulation qualities, composite doors can then be either opened throughout the house to let the cool air flow through, or closed to individual rooms which are perhaps more sheltered at certain times of the day due to the position of the sun, allowing the room to remain at a constantly comfortable temperature.
There's no need either to shut a room off completely, because by installing a composite door with a glazed panel, or half-glazed composite door, that precious summer sunlight can still flow freely around the house's interior. And of course, because a composite door is also well sound-insulated, it's ideal when some extra privacy is needed, or when one of the family wants to blast out some tunes without getting on everyone else's nerves!
