Privacy Matters:
Consider before you choose whether you prefer complete privacy 100% of the time, or a moderate degree to maximize light. Perhaps your wish is to block a less than desirable view from a window. Shades And Flooring Window Treatments has excellent choices in all respects, plus many Top Down Bottom Up upgrades for shades that allow you to have your privacy and your sunshine, too. View Preservation: Great view? Don't block it, frame it. Select a window treatment that opens up the outside world while still serving your other needs. As a rule, wider louvers or slats on blinds or shutters will offer more "view space" when opened. The top down/bottom up options for shades and horizontal blinds also provide a means for looking out while preserving privacy. Energy Efficiency: An insulating window covering is like an investment. It can pay for itself in the long run. Since experts claim we can lose up to 40% of energy through the glass panes, keeping a heating bill down in the winter and holding the cool air in during the summer is a big factor. Cells in Honeycomb Shades do this marvelously. Shutters and Vertical Blinds are also tops. Roman Shades, Faux Wood Blinds and Wood Blinds can be counted on to insulate well, too. Light Control: There are occasions when you wish to protect yourselves and your fine furnishings from the damaging UV rays of the sun. Western and Southern exposures are most vulnerable. Horizontal Sheer Shades are just one good choice when you want to bask in the sunshine without the harmful effects. On the other hand, there may be rooms where you wish to cut the light, or block it entirely for daytime sleepers or media room viewing. Many Shades And Flooring Window Treatments Blinds shades and treatment are available with Room Dimming to Room Darkening features as an upgrade or an option.

I had no idea that blinds could do so much to insulate from the warm or cold. I've heard the vertical blinds are less effective at insulating than horizontal blinds because they're generally thinner, but I suppose there might be different types of vertical blinds that are thicker. Thanks for the tips, I'll be sure to keep them in mind the next time I need to pick blinds. 2/28/2017 12:09:12 pm
