| Blinds Shades and Shutters Quick Tips! Energy Savers/Insulation – Your window shades can be so much more than an ornamental way to cover your windows. Certain window shades actually have insulating properties that can protect your house from the elements, improving energy efficiency. To benefit the most from insulating blinds, you should choose from our line of Honeycomb Shades. Honeycomb shades are also known as cellular shades or cell shades. They provide insulation through their unique cellular construction that forms air pockets between the structural layers of fabric, thereby blocking summer heat and cold winter air. Our Double Cell Honeycomb Shades will supply the maximum insulation. Room Darkening – There are certain areas of your home where you may desire more than privacy from your window shades or window blinds. Good examples are bedrooms and media rooms, where keeping the room dark is of primary importance. For these particular installations, Room Darkening or Blackout Shades have been specifically designed to provide additional light blockage. You will find room darkening shades in the following categories: Honeycomb/Cell Shade, Roman Shade, Woven / Bamboo Blinds, Roller Shades, and Sheer Shade. It’s also important to point out that even if the shade you have chosen is not a Room Darkening or Blackout Shade, you will find that many of our window shades have optional Privacy liners and Blackout liners that can be added.
