We are now into Daylight Saving Time again and again the old argument arises about fading curtains.
I, for one, am convinced that the extra hour of sunlight causes the curtains to fade quicker also furniture and anything else in the house that is in the sunlight.

What do you think and what precautions can be taken?

"Time again and again" is right. Daylight saving has been around long enough now to make any mention of it as boring as batsh-t. Get over it.

But do the curtains fade more?

Of course it does.

Just drive over the boarder from Qld into NSW, & you can't help but notice all the faded curtains. Hell even the house paint is all faded & wishy washy, not to mention the gum trees that are no where near as brightly coloured.

Hobart has 5.30 sunrise and 8.50 sunset in December and penguins are black and white.

Dear Is Mise,

Only on the western side of the house since the evenings are now longer while the mornings are shorter. The solution of course, if you can, is to switch the eastern curtains with the western for the daylight saving period. Just like rotating your tyres.
