Insulating Window Treatments for Winter
As winter settles in, you may notice a rise in energy bills as you turn on your heat. You may also notice that areas of your home with many windows, doors, or other outdoor openings become colder than at different times of year. That's because these openings provide much less insulation than your home's walls and roof, allowing the cold winter air to leak into what should be a cozy living space. Luckily, there's a solution to this problem: insulating window treatments.
What Are The Benefits of Insulating Window Treatments?
There are a few benefits to insulating window treatments that you can experience once you choose them for your windows and windowed doors:
- Prevent cold air from entering: The first benefit is that insulating window treatments can prevent cold air from coming into your home. This insulation means you spend less on energy bills and don't have to worry about specific rooms in your home being colder than others.
- Reduce sound from entering and escaping: Insulation from the temperature outside also provides insulation from sounds. For example, you can reduce the sounds of traffic you may hear from outside your home while reducing how much sound from inside escapes into the neighborhood.
- Provide additional privacy: Insulating window treatments tend to be thicker and more opaque than other window treatments, which means people outside your home can't see into it as easily as they might if you didn't have window treatments.
- Improve the aesthetics of your home: Insulating window treatments not only help prevent temperature and sound from leaving and entering your home. They also add a sophisticated and elegant designer product to each home you use them in.
- Introduce options for light control: If your windows don't already have treatments, then it's possible sunlight has been frustrating at times. If you have window treatments, the additional control over sunlight from insulating ones can help you manage the light more precisely.
Top Choices for Insulating Window Treatments
While all window treatments add some insulation to your windows and windowed doors, our team at J Ross Shutters and Blinds recommends two window treatments for maximum insulation:
- Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades: Hunter Douglas designs these shades with honeycomb-shaped cells that trap air and provide excellent insulation while maintaining a sleek aesthetic.
- Hunter Douglas Sonnette® Cellular Roller Shades: If you're looking for more control over the material and color of your window treatments while maintaining their insulation, these shades are the perfect choice.
Are Insulating Window Treatments Just for the Winter?
No. The same insulating properties that keep the warm air in your home and the cold air out during the winter work in the summer as well. They prevent the cool air from leaving your home as you run your air conditioning and prevent the warm, humid Georgia air from entering, keeping your home at the perfect temperature and potentially reducing your energy bill.
