5 Reasons Why Duette® Cellular Shades Are An Excellent Choice

  • Insulation: When it comes to insulation, few shades can match the efficiency of cellular window shades. Duette® Cellular Shades feature a unique construction that hides discreet layers of honeycomb-shaped air pockets that line the shade and prevent unwanted energy loss through the shade. The shade, in turn, protects the underlying window, helping to improve energy efficiency without additional energy consumption. With cellular shades installed, homeowners can find better overall efficiency and lower heating or cooling bills.
  • Easy Control: Skylight covers' high placement on the ceiling can make them hard to access or control, but Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades installed with their unique SkyLift™ Skylight System makes it easy for homeowners to open and close their skylight covers.
  • Privacy: Protecting residents' privacy is a primary job for any type of window covering, including skylight covers. Duette® Cellular Shades can block sunlight and sightlines so that untoward gazes are averted, and that your personal privacy is protected without compromise. Similarly, cellular shades can provide security for your home even while you're away by preventing people from seeing into your unoccupied home.
  • Coordinated Style: Duette® Cellular Shades are highly customizable for a wide range of home applications, including on specialty-shaped windows (arches, angles, trapezoids, hexagons, circles/ovals, and cut-outs), door coverings for French doors, patio and sliding glass doors, bay windows, sidelights, tilt-turn windows, and as skylight covers. They are so customizable that they make outstanding coordinating design elements carrying style throughout a room or home with over 150 fabric options.
  • Sound Absorption: Besides providing your skylights with its telltale insulation, the interior construction of cellular window shades also makes them good at sound absorption. This means they can both reduce outside noise coming in and make the inner acoustics of your home less echoey for more peaceful interiors.
