Energy Efficient Shades FAQ’s

Yes, honeycomb shades (also known as cellular shades) are highly energy efficient. Their unique design features cells that trap air, creating a layer of insulation that helps maintain a consistent room temperature. This reduces the need for heating and cooling, leading to energy savings. Honeycomb shades are available in various cell sizes and can be single, double, or triple-celled, with greater insulation properties as you increase the number of layers.

Roller shades can be energy efficient, depending on the material used. While traditional roller shades might offer basic coverage and light control, those made with thermal or blackout fabrics provide better insulation and energy efficiency. However, they generally do not perform as well as cellular shades in terms of insulation because they lack the air-trapping cells that provide a barrier against heat and cold.

Roman shades can be moderately energy efficient if they are made with insulating fabrics and are well fitted to the window to minimize air leaks around the edges. For enhanced energy efficiency, roman shades can be combined with a thermal lining, which adds an extra layer of insulation. Like roller shades, they don't inherently provide as much insulation as cellular shades but can be effective if constructed with the right materials.

Blackout cellular shades tend to be more energy efficient compared to their lighter counterparts. The blackout material not only blocks light but also improves the shade's ability to insulate a room. The layers that make a shade blackout also add thickness and density, which enhances its thermal properties by better trapping air and reducing heat transfer. This makes blackout cellular shades an excellent choice for maximizing energy efficiency and controlling indoor temperatures

Many energy-efficient shades also block harmful UV rays, protecting your furniture, floors, and artworks from sun damage.

Yes, by providing additional insulation, these shades help maintain your home’s temperature, which can reduce the need for heating in the winter and air conditioning in the summer, leading to lower energy costs.

Absolutely, these shades come in various styles, colors, and materials to match any décor.
