Why Choose Honeycomb Shades?
It can be overwhelming to sort through all of the varieties of shades and blinds available today; there are many that offer great benefits. At Altra Home Décor serving the greater Phoenix area, our clients often ask us about the benefits of honeycomb shades. If you’re interested in learning about the highly versatile product, read on or talk to one of our trained consultants for more information.
Energy Savings
Did you know that you can lose up to 50% of your home’s heating and cooling energy through the window? That is why it is important to have the help of window treatments. The honeycomb shade is one of the most energy-efficient products on the market. In single, double, or triple cell size for greater energy efficiency, the shade’s pockets trap the cool air in the summer and warm air in the winter, helping the room stay at optimal temperatures.
Other Functions for Honeycomb Shades
Honeycomb shades provides aesthetics and privacy when lowered, giving the space a softer feeling. They come in hundreds of colors and textures, with opacities from sheer to blackout. For child- and pet-safety features, they operate cordless, with a retractable cord, and by remote control. For external aesthetics, the backing is white, which provides great curb appeal.
Horizontal or Vertical Styles
Hunter Douglas, the leader in window fashions developed the first honeycomb shade, Duette®, in the 80s. Consumers loved it, and wanted to have coordinating honeycomb shades for their sliding and patio doors. The answer: turn the honeycomb fabric vertical and create a single headrail track. That’s how Vertiglide™ was born.
