Energy efficiency is a priority these days, and your window treatments can greatly impact your energy use. A home’s heating and cooling energy is most often lost thought its windows. At Made in the Shade we offer several options to enhance your insulation needs. In addition to lowering your heating and cooling costs, Made in the Shade knows that our window treatments can also protect your furniture and flooring from damaging ultraviolet rays from the sun.

Types of Energy-Efficient Window Treatments

Most window treatments will provide some energy savings when closed or lowered. We recommend for the best in energy efficiency…Cellular/Honeycomb Shade.

It is the hexagon-shaped cells of the Cellular/Honeycomb Shade which trap air keeping rooms warm on a freezing cold winter night and cool on a hot summer afternoon. Hung close to the window, single-, double- and even triple-cell Cellular/Honeycomb Shade will provide the maximum amount of insulation.

Other great energy saving window treatments would be our Roman Shades, Woven Wood Shades, Wood Blinds, Faux Wood Blinds and Shutters.

For the maximum in energy saving window treatments combine a blind or shade with one of our Custom Draperies can greatly reduce the amount of heat/cold passed through your window. It is an extra layer of insulation for your windows and a great way to finish off the look of any room.
