Warm, Elegant Hunter Douglas Winter Window Treatments
Spokane winters can turn your home into an icebox. And when temperatures drop, and heating bills climb, drafty windows often shoulder the blame. If you're tired of cocooning yourself in heavy blankets and cranking up the thermostat, consider how energy-efficient window treatments can help.
At Fabric Works in Spokane, window coverings are our specialty. We customize Hunter Douglas shades that combine style with serious insulation benefits, helping homeowners stay comfortable all season long. And don't worry, you won't sacrifice good looks for practicality.
The Energy Efficiency of Cellular Shades
We're not kidding about this: Cellular shades work like a puffy winter jacket for your windows. Their honeycomb-shaped, horizontal cells trap air between the glass and interior space, building a buffer that keeps cold out and warmth in. As a bonus, they muffle outside noise and help cut your energy bills year-round.
During winter's shorter days, these shades also give you additional light control while maintaining privacy. You won't have to choose between letting in natural light and keeping your home cozy; neighbors can't peek in during those long, dark evenings.
Hunter Douglas Shades That Regulate Room Temperatures
Studies show that windows account for up to 30% of a home's energy losses. Hunter Douglas shades address this problem head-on with designs that insulate, protect, and beautify living spaces throughout the coldest months.
Duette® Cellular Shades
Duette® Cellular Shades were the original honeycomb shades, designed specifically to improve energy efficiency at the window in frigid and warm climates. Their cellular construction features air pockets that provide insulation, helping reduce energy consumption and lower monthly utility bills. These shades come in single-cell and double-cell options, with the double-cell design offering added insulation.
Sonnette® Roller Shades
Sonnette® Roller Shades have a hybrid design that marries the minimalist appearance of a roller shade with honeycomb construction. A concealed layer of pockets traps air between the shade and the window, creating a thermal barrier that separates the outdoors from your home's interior. The design helps living spaces maintain consistent temperatures year-round, with a clean, modern aesthetic that suits any décor.
Gain Even More Energy Efficiency With PowerView® Automation
Hunter Douglas offers PowerView® Automation on most of its custom window coverings. You can schedule this motorized system to open and close your honeycomb shades based on the sun's position throughout the day. In winter, they can automatically open during sunny hours to let in natural warmth, then close at dusk to trap heat inside. You can also program them into your daily routine, so your home stays comfortable without you lifting a finger or having to remember to adjust them manually. Nice!
