Pikes Peak Interiors—located in Colorado Springs, CO—can help you create a more comfortable home with energy efficient cellular shades from Hunter Douglas. Cellular shades were first released in the 1980’s. Hunter Douglas Duette Honeycomb shades were designed to keep homes cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. The unique cellular design actually traps air at the windows and lowers your energy consumption and your utility bill, and they have been a staple in energy-efficient homes ever since their release.

Why Energy Efficient Window Treatments Are Important

Most homes today are designed with an abundance of windows. Large windows allow us to enjoy a gorgeous view and specialty windows add character and curb appeal to our homes. Windows are an important part of any interior design, but they also can create some unwanted consequences. Up to 50% of your heating and cooling energy is lost through your windows. With good insulating window treatments, you can actually save money on heating and cooling your home. Cellular shades stop heat from escaping out your windows during the winter months and keep the heat from coming in during the summer months, keeping your heating and cooling right where it belongs.

Choosing the Right Cellular Shades

Cellular shades come in a variety of styles and designs. Today’s cellular shades come in more options for light control, privacy and energy efficiency than ever before, so you are sure to find the perfect shade for your home’s needs and style. At Pikes Peak Interiors, we will work closely with you to help you choose the right cellular shades for your home. You can design your custom cellular shades to do exactly what you need them to do. Not only should they provide your home with the energy efficiency you need but they should fit perfectly into your window and your décor.

Getting The Most from Your Windows and Your Cellular Shades

Cellular shades like Hunter Douglas’s Duette Honeycomb Shades also are available with a variety of operating systems. Top-down/bottom-up solutions will give you the right amount of privacy and light control to allow you to enjoy your windows at any time of day, and if you love your view and struggle with closing your window treatments you may find that motorized window treatments are the answer. With PowerView Motorization you can easily close your window treatments during certain parts of the day, at night or when you’re not home.
