Add Honeycomb Shades for Extra Insulation

In Nova Scotia, sometimes the summer can get a little too warm and the winters a little too chilly, which is why cellular honeycomb shades are such an asset to have as window treatments. They keep your home better insulated by up to 30% so you don’t have to waste money on heating or cooling your home unnecessarily. The cellular blinds that we carry here at Seeview Blinds & Shutters are the Hunter Douglas Duette® Honeycomb Shades. These shades are loved by our customers and are one of our highest recommended products.

Energy-Efficiency

These honeycomb shades offer energy-efficiency because they are constructed and designed specifically to create a barrier of air and fabric at your window, which works to provide insulation. Each shade has individual hexagonal air pockets that are distinctly designed to assist with insulation of the home. Many people may not realize that windows are responsible for up to 30% of energy losses within the home. That is why these shades are so essential, especially if you want to save money on energy bills. Plus, Hunter Douglas takes it one step further and offers our Duette® Architella® collection, which features a honeycomb-within-a-honeycomb design for even more insulation and energy savings, a great choice for the Nova Scotian customer.

Customization

Alongside the insulation benefit of these cell shades is the ability to create them to look the exact way you would like. We have the largest selection in the industry when it comes to pleat sizes, opacities, colors, textures, and operating systems.

Consider cordless operation systems like LiteRise®, which lets you operate your window treatment by pushing them up or pulling them down with your hand. With a Top-Down/Bottom-Up system, you can position your window treatments as you like, customizing the light balance and privacy in your room to suit your needs.

Functionality

These cell shades out-perform any other honeycomb blinds on the market. These blinds are durable because of their high-performing fabrics that maintain their clean, crisp pleats overtime. Needless to say, these honeycomb blinds are high-performing in every way. They have a special blackout feature by utilizing the LightLock™ system which offers unparalleled darkness. A special side channel is designed to either absorb or deflect all incoming light, making these the darkest cell shades to date. Plus, if managing light is important to you, try our Duolite® shade that combines two separate fabrics--one light filtering and the other room-darkening, into a single shade that you can use to block out even more light.
