Energy Savings with Cellular Shades

Windows are one of the biggest sources of energy loss in a home. Up to 30% of heating and cooling energy escapes through untreated glass. Cellular shades are designed specifically to fight this.

Their honeycomb-shaped cells trap air, creating an insulating barrier between your room and the window. In winter, they keep warm air in. In summer, they keep heat out. The result is a more comfortable room and lower energy bills.

Double-cell shades offer even more insulation than single-cell, with two layers of trapped air. They're a smart choice for drafty windows or extreme climates.

Studies show cellular shades can reduce heat loss through windows by up to 40%. Pair them with the right opacity (light-filtering for daytime, blackout for bedrooms) and you get comfort, privacy, and savings all in one.

They're also cordless by design, which makes them safe for kids and pets, and they look crisp and clean whether raised or lowered.
