Cellular Blinds Energy-Saving Benefits

Cellulars are the most energy efficient window shades available today. According to the US Department of Energy, the typical U.S. family spends about $1,900 a year on home utility bills. Windows provide views, day lighting, ventilation, and solar heating in the winter. Unfortunately, they can also account for 10% to 25% of your heating bill. During the summer, your air conditioner must work harder to cool hot air from sunny windows, many times making your air conditioning work two to three times harder.

In cold climates they recommend:

  • Install tight-fitting, insulating cellular shades on windows that feel drafty after weatherizing.
  • Close your curtains and cellular shades at night; open them during the day.

In warm climates they recommend:

  • Install white cellular shades, drapes, or blinds to reflect heat away from the house.
  • Close curtains on south- and west-facing windows during the day.
