Reduce Home Energy Bills with Cellular Shades

When it comes to home energy bills, it seems like the cycle never ends. With no shortage of warm, sunny it is easy to watch your energy bill skyrocket. All of this can be quite frustrating. However, it can become even more frustrating when you realize that up to 50 percent of a home’s heating and cooling is lost through poorly insulated windows! Fortunately, Hunter Douglas has a premium line of shades that will help reduce home energy bills. Read on to learn more about these energy-efficient cellular shades below!

Duette® Honeycomb Shades near Concord, California (CA) and other Hunter Douglas energy-efficient options.

Energy-Efficient Cells

When it comes to keeping your home comfortable, it might feel like you are stuck between a rock and a hard place. You know that cranking your AC or heat up will result in large energy bills, but the thought of living in an uncomfortably hot or cold home is just not acceptable. Fortunately, one of the main ways cellular shades help reduce home energy bills is their energy-efficient design. Featuring a cellular, or honeycomb, construction, Hunter Douglas Duette® Honeycomb Shades trap warm or cool air in its distinct pockets to keep your home comfortable all year long. This means that the heating and cooling swirling around your home will stay put and not sleep out through your windows. This also means no hot or cold air can creep through your windows throughout the seasons! You can now enjoy a comfortable home without running to the thermostat. The best part? By not cranking up the heating or cooling as often, you will start seeing dips in your home energy bills. Talk about a win-win scenario!

Custom Designs

In addition to having a wide variety of gorgeous fabrics to choose from, Duette® Honeycomb Shades also come in a variety of sizes! This is especially helpful for homes that feature large windows or sliding glass doors. The Hunter Douglas Vertiglide™ operating system is perfect for those wide, energy-sucking glass expanses! Designed for vertical applications, this operating system uses the same fabrics seen in the Duette® shades to help keep these windows insulated all year long. And, if your home requires a little extra insulation, our Duette Architella® option features a honeycomb within a honeycomb to ensure that no air is seeping out or creeping in through your wide windows and sliding glass doors. Over time, this will reduce your home energy bills without sacrificing your home’s comfort levels.
