Three Reasons Honeycomb Shades Just Might Be The Best Shades
There are a lot of great window treatments on the market today, but few are as fully featured as honeycomb shades. Also known as cellular shades, these window coverings have a clean, modern look with a structure that is as innovative as simple. At Blinds and Us Seneca, Duette® Honeycomb Shades from Hunter Douglas are one of our new favorite window treatments. Here are three reasons why:
1. Energy Efficiency
The cellular structure of Duette® Honeycomb Shades does more than block sunlight or cinch up accordion-style out of the way; when covering your window, it traps pockets of air in each cell that creates a layer of insulation against outside temperatures. Your house will stay cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, reducing the strain on your HVAC system and your wallet. Improve your energy savings even more by choosing Duette® Architella® Honeycomb Shades, which trap even more air for better insulation.
2. Sound Absorption
The insulating factor of Duette® Honeycomb Shades not only protects against outside air temperatures and absorbs up to 70% of sound energy. Your room will be more comfortable in terms of temperature and silence, making it the ideal window treatment for sensitive spaces, such as bedrooms. The prevalence of video conferencing and recording in today’s home workplace means that sound deadening is more critical than ever; the acoustic absorption of the cellular structure makes Duette® Honeycomb Shades ideal for spaces like home offices as well.
3. Light Blocking
Duette® Honeycomb Shades are available in opacities ranging from sheer to room-darkening. However, your light control options don’t end there. LightLock™ utilizes a patent-pending channel along your window frame to create a tighter fit for your Duette® Shades that blocks or absorbs light leakage for a new level of blackout. LightLock™ isn’t just for bedrooms, though. Add it to your living room windows and enjoy Saturday movie marathons with the family without all the usual glare on your TV screen. Choose Duette® for your bedroom window treatments, and you will rest better than ever in a darker, quieter, and more comfortable space.
Bonus: PowerView® Automation
Everything we love about Duette® Honeycomb Shades is made even better with the addition of PowerView® Automation from Hunter Douglas. Schedule your Duette® Shades to close during the hottest part of the day to improve your home’s energy efficiency. Use voice commands to close them at night, taking advantage of the light-blocking and sound-absorbing features for a better night’s sleep. PowerView® integrates your window treatments with smart home systems such as Amazon Alexa, Hey Google, and Apple HomeKit. With PowerView® Automation, your Duette® Honeycomb Shades can help turn your home windows into smart windows.
