Go Green!
Want to be "go green?" Start with your window treatments! Installing window treatments is a simple way to make your home more energy efficient and reduce energy bills. Though considered an investment, they will keep your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, saving you money.
Another option? Consider window awnings or overhang-windows as another way to shade and protect heat from coming in.
Light colored blinds, drapes, and shades are perfect for reflecting sunlight and heat.
A final option is tighter, insulated shades that can help reduce heating costs.

Light Control
When choosing window treatments, you want to consider your light control options.
Here are some questions to ask yourself:
*Am I looking for the maximum amount of sunlight in my room?
*What type of room is it? (Media Rooms & Bedrooms may require darker lighting)
*Am I looking for UV protection?
*Do I want something energy efficient?
There are 5 categories of light control:
The first is Transparent, a clear, open window.
The next option is Translucent, offering a little more privacy. Think of sheer or woven fabrics and bamboo shades.
The third is Filtered, adding additional privacy. Picture mini blinds and drapes with heavier fabrics.
Semi-Opaque blocks most light, allowing only some to enter the room. Silhouettes, Honeycombs, & Solar Shades are perfect examples.
The last category is Opaque, total black-out. Roller Shades and Roman Shades are two products that offer this.
Why Black-Out Shades? Not only do they help with temperature control, but they prevent fading of your carpet and furniture due to sunlight.
