What Are the Best Energy Saving Window Treatments in Malibu?
At the Blind and Drapery Showroom, we understand that your choice of window treatments can have a huge impact on your energy usage – and your utility costs! Did you know that without the proper energy-efficient window treatments for your home, as much as 50% of your house’s heating and cooling energy can be lost through its windows?
We are experts in helping you achieve BIG energy savings by installing the most energy-efficient window treatment solutions for your needs. We offer window treatment products that help you conserve energy in three big ways.
Energy Saving Window Treatments: Insulation – Malibu, Thousand Oaks
High energy insulation shades, such as Hunter Douglas Duette® honeycomb shades, keep your cool air-conditioned atmosphere “in” and the sun’s heat “out” – reducing your air-conditioning costs! And, during those cooler winter evenings that same insulation technology keeps the colder night air out, reducing or eliminating the need to expend energy heating your home.
Energy Saving Window Treatments: Solar Heat Control – Malibu, Thousand Oaks
Under California’s 365 day/year sun, solar light streams in through every window – heating up every room and drastically increasing your air conditioning costs! Our energy efficient window shades, blinds and draperies can dramatically minimize the amount of sunlight that enters through your windows.
For example, Hunter Douglas’s “A Deux™ System” offers energy-saving room-darkening by combining a light-filtering Silhouette shade and a room-darkening roller shade in a single headrail!
Energy Saving Window Treatments: “Daylighting” – Malibu, Thousand Oaks
Daylighting is the technique used by homeowners to light rooms with natural light rather than artificial light. We offer a wide range of light filtering window treatments – including translucent and transparent shades – that allow homeowners to draw natural light into a room, while still averting the sun’s harsh glare and damaging UV rays.
Now you can allow natural light into your home – without the heat, glare or UV damage – so you can reduce the need for other types of lighting, which will also reduce your energy use!
