Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Henley Homes 2271Aug 07, 2016 10:39 am mamba Guys, quick question. You know that theatre rooms that sit in the far end of the house come with a plain sealed rectangle window. It's positioned directly opposite to where you'd normally mount your TV. I am concerned this may cause a lot of glaring. Has anyone experienced this? I like the window and want to leave it without any blinds or shutters. Was thinking of having it installed tinted. Please share your thoughts. Cheers! M Depending on the orientation of the house and time of day, you may get extreme glare. Theatres are supposed to be dark to avoid this problem. Some home theatres have no windows at all. Window dressings enhance the window and the look and functionality of the space. Even though you like it bare, I think you'll find yourself putting in some kind of treatment before long. Re: Henley Homes 2272Aug 09, 2016 4:00 pm Ponzu mamba Guys, quick question.

I agree, having nothing on the windows will drive you crazy eventually! There is nothing worse than a glare while you are trying to watch something Re: Henley Homes 2274Aug 30, 2016 12:03 pm Hey all!
