The cellular shades' insulating properties contribute to energy efficiency by reducing the work of the HVAC system, making them the perfect window treatment for creating an energy-conscious and comfortable environment. Cellular shades are window treatments made of fabric with a distinctive honeycomb-like structure, creating cellular pockets that trap air. The trapped air acts as a buffer zone that regulates indoor temperatures by preventing heat loss or heat gain.

Honeycomb Design for Energy Efficiency

The thermal efficiency of cellular shades results from their unique honeycomb structure, which consists of individual hexagonal cells that form a pattern resembling a beehive. Each cell traps air. In the winter, this trapped air acts as an insulating barrier preventing heat transfer from inside the room to the cold surface of the window. However, the honeycomb design in the summer helps block external heat from entering the room. Cellular shades' distinctive design contributes to energy savings while creating sustainable practices for a greener home.

Temperature Control

The insulating properties of Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades make for a more comfortable room. Well-insulated rooms offer heightened comfort by providing a stable and regulated indoor environment. Beyond temperature control, insulation also minimizes the impact of external noise, contributing to a quieter and more serene living space.

Further, since these shades come in various opacities, you can control the amount of natural light entering. In summary, the result of Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades' insulating properties is a comfortable and inviting environment where occupants can enjoy a sense of coziness, tranquility, and cost-effective living.

Smart Home Integration

PowerView® Automation is available for Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades. Motorized cellular shades come with the same superior insulation but are controlled using a remote, mobile device, or even your voice. For optimal insulation during the summer, schedule cellular shades to lower during the peak sunlight hours to block the sun's heat from entering the room to reduce excessive air conditioning. In the winter, set the motorized cellular shades to lower during the night to trap the warm air inside and prevent heat loss through the windows. If there's direct sunlight during the day during cold months, you can set the south-facing window shades to rise so sunlight naturally enters and warms the room.
