Reply to comment by somefool in Europe’s climate warming at twice rate of global average, says report by hugglenugget

It’s not the windows. It’s the rest of the building. You probably don’t have decent insulation

Yeah. Belgium and its 1950's built houses. I kind of took offense at the previous commenter's "lol close your windows, easy peasy" approach.

The windows do not help tho. They radiate heat, you can feel it holding your hand 10cm away.

Covered is better then not, though I’ve read foil is not good for windows when used on the inside but if the building is poorly built/insulated/designed it’s always going to be difficult at extremes of weather either direction
