Hi,
I wanted to know what type of window treatment people have used with their tilt & turn windows?
I am looking at some solutions to block the sunlight in the bedrooms. I couldn’t find much online except for curtains which we are hoping to avoid due to dust allergies.
Thanks,
Arnold

I like shades that mount to the sash: https://www.hunterdouglas.com/operating-systems/manual/trackglide. Just be aware that if you have thick walls, you may need to oversize the window openings if you want the windows to swing in at least 90°.
Those are interesting Michael. Do you know if they cause any issue with the window seal or gaskets?
Thanks,
Arnold
They shouldn't; they screw into the sash frame, which is usually either solid wood or multi-chamber uPVC.
