Energy-Efficient Shades

The honeycomb (cellular) construction creates pockets of air that act as insulation between your window and your room. This slows heat transfer, keeping warm air in during winter and hot air out during summer. This means your heating and cooling systems don’t have to work as hard.

They can. The exact savings depend on your home’s insulation, window size, and climate. Many homeowners in Omaha and Lincoln notice a difference, especially on windows with direct sun exposure or older, less efficient glass.

Single-cell shades have one layer of honeycomb pockets. Double-cell shades have a honeycomb within a honeycomb, creating more air pockets for better insulation. Double-cell costs more but provides better thermal performance — especially helpful for Omaha and Lincoln winters.

Absolutely. Cellular shades are one of the best insulating window treatments for cold climates like Nebraska. They block drafts and reduce heat loss through windows, which can be significant during harsh winters.
