Three Benefits of Honeycomb Shades

The window professionals at Blind Solutions of Colorado certainly can help you choose the best blinds and shades for your home and your budget. Honeycomb shades are certainly a great choice for these rooms. Want to know more? Here are three benefits of Honeycomb shades to spruce up your rooms.

FYI

Honeycomb shades have a cheaper cousin -- Pleated shades. Pleated shades are constructed with a single layer of material whereas Honeycomb shades provide a multi-layered dimensional surface that provides a very effective insulated surface. Pleated shaded look similar to Honeycomb shades; however, they do not provide the following benefits. 

Privacy

Honeycomb shades are excellent for bedrooms and living rooms because they afford the best amount of privacy both during the day and night time hours. During the day, they allow for natural light to pass through (depending on the style and colors chosen) while providing optimal privacy. During night times hours, they effectively obscure the view from the outside due to the multi-layered honeycomb design.

 Sound Barrier 

One of the greatest of the three benefits of Honeycomb shades is they actually reduce outside noise. This feature is wonderful for street-facing bedrooms or workspaces where a little extra quiet goes a long way.

 Energy Efficiency

Yes, Honeycomb shades are more expensive than their cousin, the pleated shade; however, the money saved in energy costs will more than provide for the difference over time. Honeycomb shades are fantastic thermal and sound insulators. In essence, you get what you pay for. 

 Honeycomb shades are a beautiful addition to any room. They also come in a fantastic array of colors and textures to complement the decor of any room. Contact Blind Solutions of Colorado to assist you in choosing the best window coverings that add not only beauty but also functionality to any room.
