Top 4 Reasons to Cover Your Windows
Custom window treatments do much more than complement your home’s decor and keep sunlight from waking you on Saturday morning. At Smart PNW, we’re passionate about window treatments, so we’re sharing the top four reasons to invest in custom coverings for your windows.
Reduce Glare
Natural light is fantastic. It makes your home look more attractive and spacious and has several health benefits. Unfortunately, the sun is also responsible for producing obnoxious glares that can make it hard to watch TV or see the screen of your phone or computer. Designer Solar Shades are an ideal window treatment for reducing glare. They are designed to keep glare and heat out of your home without eliminating your ability to see the outdoors. Five openness factors allow you to find the ideal combination of light and privacy.
Prevent Sun Damage
You wear sunblock outside to protect your skin, but harmful UV rays pass through your windows. This means your flooring and furnishings risk fading and discoloration from sun damage. We love Silhouette® Sheer Shades for rooms that get a lot of direct sun during the day. They gently diffuse sunlight into an inviting glow and offer outstanding protection from UV damage. The sheer material provides privacy even when the vanes are tilted open for maximum daylight.
Better Sleep
We all know how much better we feel after a good night of sleep, but getting quality zzz’s can be tricky in a room that isn’t dark enough. Even seemingly harmless amounts of light from passing cars or streetlights can affect your sleep, so it’s essential that your bedroom be as dark as possible. Custom drapery with a room-darkening liner is a surefire way to keep out unwanted light, and drapes look stunning when layered with Roman shades, cellular shades, or wood blinds. Duette® Cellular Shades are available with LightLock®, an optional blackout system that reduces incoming light by up to 50%.
Energy Efficiency
An energy-efficient home is good for the environment and beneficial to your budget. Any window covering will help lessen your energy usage for heating and cooling your home, but Duette® Cellular Shades lead the pack if you’re looking for the best energy-saving window treatments.
Cellular shades have an innovative honeycomb-within-a-honeycomb design that traps air to prevent warm or cool air from passing through. This creates a superior level of insulation that will keep your home’s temperature comfortable no matter the weather. You can also enjoy the sleek, compact design of roller shades with the energy-saving advantages of cellular shades by choosing Sonnette® Roller Shades.
