Are you looking for an automated window covering or, might you be wondering, why? Why would I need a motorized blind or shade? Do you have any windows in hard to reach areas? Maybe there is furniture preventing you from reaching the cords. Maybe it is a sky lite window. Why go in search of a step ladder when all you need is to push a button on the remote. Motorized blinds also protect your children and pets. With a remote, you have eliminated the cords that could be a hazardous.

The fuel needed to make your home comfortable is noticeably less with the addition energy-efficient blinds. Heat transfer is blocked, ultraviolet (UV) radiation is blocked, and air infiltration is reduced by providing insulation in front of window glass. Energy-efficient blinds keep the heat inside during the winter and keep the cool air inside during the summer. Wood, bamboo, and other natural fabrics can be used to create energy efficient blinds that are not only bio-degradable and recyclable, but also have a high R-Value.

As the temperatures drop outside, and we begin to (gasp!) wear coats once again, it’s time to begin thinking of winter plans as well.
