The experiments were measured the indoor thermal environment of several dwelling units with different conditions of curtains. The conditions are the volume of leaves of green curtains and comparing with reed screens. We could get the result that green curtain had effect to improve the thermal living environment according to the volume of leaves area, and the green curtain had more effectiveness than reed screens. From this result, we estimated the effectiveness of saving electricity by green curtains. And also at the sensitive temperature it was cleared that green curtain have more effectiveness than other conditions when sliding doors and windows were opened.
