However, protection against the harsh summer sun is sometimes underestimated, as it can overheat the wooden construction uncomfortably. Some owners of wooden constructions rely on cooling by means of heat recovery, but this will only reduce the room temperature by 2\u2009\u2013\u20093 degrees at most. In comparison, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/en\/blinds\/external-blinds\/\">external blinds<\/a> <strong>will reduce the temperature in the house by up to 5\u2009\u2013\u200910 degrees<\/strong>.<\/p>\n      <\/section>\n\n\n        <section class=\"component component-gutenberg-heading typography my-1\">\n              \n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Passive cooling of wooden constructions<\/h2>\n      <\/section>\n\n\n        <section class=\"component component-gutenberg-paragraph typography my-1\">\n              \n<p>You can design the building itself at the project stage so that it does not overheat. For example, the shape of the construction (L\u2011shape instead of square), the roof overhang or the overhang of the whole floor (i.e. the upper floor has a&nbsp;wider base than the lower floor). Trees growing close to the house can also help, creating natural shade and making the house more comfortable. However, the best way to protect you from the harsh sun and the interior overheating <strong>is to shade your windows<\/strong>.<\/p>\n      <\/section>\n\n\n        <section class=\"component component-gutenberg-heading typography my-1\">\n              \n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shading the windows on a&nbsp;wooden construction<\/h2>\n      <\/section>\n\n\n        <section class=\"component component-gutenberg-paragraph typography my-1\">\n              \n<p>Shading is divided into external and internal. <strong>For wooden constructions, we recommend <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.neva.eu\/en\/\"><strong>external shading<\/strong><\/a>, which creates a&nbsp;barrier in front of the window and thus prevents the glass panes from overheating and heat from penetrating inside.
