Window treatments are a way to bring design and dimension to any room. However they don’t have to be just a pretty piece of fabric, they can also make your room more energy efficient. You may have heard of energy efficient windows, but you can maximize efficiency through a window treatment as well. Hunter Douglas window fashions are energy efficient in two ways: • Reduced heat flow: Certain window treatments are constructed to retain heat in the winter and retain cooler air in the summer. This means a more efficient heat flow and lower energy bill. • Daylighting: Some designs are created to cast incoming sunlight in the most efficient manner which reduces the need for artificial, electric lighting. It maximizes the use of the sun’s rays for a higher quality light that is diffused deeper into the room.
In addition to the practical uses of these energy efficient window treatments, they also come in a variety of styles, colors, and designs. Instead of choosing the typical shade, make the smart choice to get a stylish window treatment that also benefits your home.
