Did you know? Over 75% of unwanted heat transfer takes place through windows, making energy-efficient window coverings essential for year-round savings. Shades and blinds (especially smart ones!) are one of the most cost-effective ways to upgrade your home’s look, feel, and value.
Insulating your home is important, but without proper shades and blinds, your insulation efforts will be in vain. Because windows are a substantial source of heat transfer, they need to be covered with proper temperature-trapping materials to help keep your home just the temperature you want it. Besides looking awesome and controlling temperature, the proper blinds and shades will save you money on your energy bill. Win-win-win!
Conserve Energy At The Window
Why are Hunter Douglas window coverings the best on the market?
To explain why Hunter Douglas products are the best in the industry, let’s explore “R-value.” A product’s “R-value” is a measurement of its ability to resist heat flow. In the winter, R-values indicate the ability of walls, roofs and windows to keep heat inside. The higher its R-value, the more insulation a product provides. The walls and roof of a well-constructed building typically have an average R-value of 25. Windows generally have an R-value of .88 to 1.7, sometimes 3.5 if it’s a triple pane window. These windows would allow about seven times more energy to escape per square foot than the rest of a building’s exterior. Windows truly are energy holes. This is where Hunter Douglas products can have a very positive impact. Hunter Douglas shades boast high the highest R-values on the market, 7.73 for their highest-end honeycomb shade!
