Honeycomb cellular shades are specifically engineered to provide beauty and energy efficiency at the window in both cold and warm climates.
The superior design of our Duette® Architella®honeycomb shades trap air in distinct pockets to help keep your house cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
CONSERVE ENERGY AT THE WINDOW WITH THE HELP OF WINDOW COVERINGS
Insulation
In winter months, your home heating escapes to the outdoors through your windows while in the summertime, the outside heat flows into your home through these same windows. With window treatments that provide insulation, you can reduce energy consumption, save on heating and cooling costs, and create a more comfortable atmosphere.
Solar Heat Control
The warmth provided by the sun, its solar energy, may be desirable during the winter to help heat your home, but in the summer, it can make a room overly hot and uncomfortable—driving up air conditioning costs. Many window fashions help to control solar heat by allowing it into your home in the winter and minimizing the amount that comes in during the summer.
Daylighting
Daylighting is the practice of lighting rooms with natural light rather than artificial light. By drawing natural light into a room many of our window treatments reduce the need for other types of lighting, thereby reducing your energy use.
5 TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY AT THE WINDOW
- Ensure your windows and doors are properly
weather-stripped.
- Caulk around basement and storm windows.
- When heating or cooling, keep windows locked.
- Open your window coverings during sunny
winter days to catch free solar heat then close them at night to keep that heat
in.
- Close your window coverings during summer
days to keep the heat out.
