Cellular Shades

If you want to effectively block unwanted air from entering your home, consider outfitting your windows with Duette® Cellular Shades. Thanks to the individual cells, cold air is kept at bay in the winter. Therefore, you can expect your home to become more energy efficient after these are implemented. And, when the summer rolls around, these will continue to work and help keep your home cooler as well. This means that you will experience noticeable results throughout the year.

Another of the benefits of these shades is that you can customize nearly every aspect of them. From the pleat size to the opacity, making these your own is easy. Speaking of personalization, these Hunter Douglas offerings are available in over 150 fabrics and colors. Thanks to the expansive nature of our collection, we are confident that you can find a look that suits your home.

As for where you can place these shades, there are many options to consider. While these can certainly work on traditional windows, feel free to think outside of the box as well. Since these can be placed on arches, angles, and bay windows, you can consider unusual spaces.

The impressive pairing means that you can count on two designs in one. On top of that, these also offer cordless operation and sound absorption.
