In our climate, windows can account for a significant share of heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. A well-chosen window covering then becomes a genuine investment in energy efficiency.
The air-barrier principle
Cellular (honeycomb) shades trap air in their cells, creating an insulating layer between the glass and the room. In winter, this barrier slows heat from escaping; in summer, it limits heat coming in.
Block out to cool down
Blackout and lined fabrics reflect part of the solar radiation. Lowered during the hottest hours, they reduce the load on your air conditioning.
Consistent comfort
Beyond the savings, window insulation removes cold spots near the glass and makes every room more pleasant to live in, in any season.
The right product for your windows
Our decorators assess the orientation of your windows and recommend the appropriate fabric and level of insulation, from a wide range of North American and European products. Measurement and estimate are free.
