5 Ways Hunter Douglas Window Shades Protect Your Home
If you think window shades are just there to block light, you're wrong. Window treatments can fulfill many other roles in the home, from helping you to develop your interior design style to protecting you and your home from the outdoor elements; window treatments are one of the most versatile things in your home. Hunter Douglas window shades can protect your home in many ways, and the team at Kao's Pacific Interiors has highlighted some of those ways below to show how different styles of window treatments can elevate your home's safety while keeping you comfortable and in control at home.
- UV Protection for Household Items: UV radiation is a powerful and destructive natural force when it comes to the ways these rays can ravage your home goods. Prolonged exposure to UV can negatively affect your home's wood, plastic, paint, fabrics, and other materials by causing discoloration, bleaching, color fade, warping, bowing, cracking, or premature aging. Left unchecked, UV rays can cause the early demise of flooring, furniture, artwork, and other household items, necessitating costly repairs or replacement. Hunter Douglas window shades protect your home by blocking or absorbing UV rays so they cannot affect the interior of a home. The styles of window treatments designed especially to filter this radiation but still let lots of light in include solar shades and sheer shades.
- Privacy When at Home: Your home is where we're supposed to feel comfortable and protected, an oasis for your family apart from the chaos of the exterior world. However, it's hard to relax or feel safe when you feel exposed. Hunter Douglas window shades protect your privacy by obscuring the view of nosy neighbors and lurking strangers who no longer have visual access to the inside of your home. Plantation-style shutters are some of our favorites for protecting privacy, as their louvered design can block the view but still allow natural sunlight and air to flow through.
- Security When Away: Hunter Douglas window shades not only protect residents while they are at home but can even protect your home while you're away. Using automated settings in the PowerView® system, homeowners can program shades to move independently throughout the day to create the illusion that someone is still home. This movement discourages looky-loos from thinking your home is vacant and, therefore, vulnerable.
- Safeguarding Your Wallet: Energy costs may be rising, but your monthly energy bill doesn't have to if you're using your window shades smartly. Insulated shades, like cellular shades, protect against the unwanted energy transfer that causes temperature instability in your home. By keeping the heat out in the summer and the AC in, insulated cellular shades ensure you're not paying to cool the outside.
- Child Safety: You might not know this, but the hanging lines on traditional window treatments can pose a real and present danger for your kids. If they become entangled in the cords, strangulation is possible, so part of child-proofing a home needs to include eliminating these existing hazards. Hunter Douglas window shades have cord-free operating systems, like PowerView® Automation, that help create a child-safe space, and there are also cordless styles, like plantation shutters, so parents can have stylish window fashions that are still kid-friendly.
