Top Reasons To Choose Honeycomb Cellular Shades

By Marcie Goodman


Honeycomb cellular shades provide year round benefits in keeping you more comfortable. They look good enough to use alone, but are also right at home behind other types of window treatments. These blinds offer superior insulation for your windows and available in different levels of light diffusion. They can help reduce your energy bills.

One of the most popular reasons for selecting these shades is for their insulating ability. However, many homeowners do not realize that they can make a just as significant difference in the summer as they do in the winter. The insulation they provide can help to keep homes cooler, reduce the cost of air conditioning and protect the furnishings from the harmful UV rays that come with bright summer sunshine.

For the bedroom, light blocking window treatments are popular. The shade helps to prevent the morning sun from disturbing one's slumber. They are also effective against urban light pollution at night by allowing you to control the amount entering the area where you sleep. They are particularly effective for night shift workers who must sleep during the day.

With the double fabric layers and trapped air, noise from outside one's home is also reduced. Whether you are bothered by traffic noise, barking dogs or playing children, the muffling effect is appreciated. Your home becomes a quiet place for relaxing.

In homes with small children and pets, owners often are concerned about the dangers of cords used to operate the device. Today, there are cordless models available. Tiny electric motors are built into the unit to roll the shade up or down and adjust the amount of natural sunlight that enters one's home.

Many reviewers prefer the D-shaped cells for these units. This shape works best in holding the accordion shape that traps air to provide insulation. Spun lace offers a softer, yet heavier material than point bond fabric. It also offers a greater insulating ability in both winter and summer that the less expensive point bond fabric. For the greatest insulation value, choose a double cell unit instead of a single cell one.

These window treatments are available in light filtering to as blackout varieties. Light filtering devices continue to allow natural lighting to enter a room while providing insulation and privacy for those inside. Room darkening units are an excellent choice in areas where sunlight or other sources of light are distracting. The latter is a good choice for the bedroom or home theater.

Consumers will find a wide variety of color choices. While these window treatments work well on their own, pairing them with drapes or other options can provide an even more dramatic look. The size of pleats that form the cells also from small to large, with each providing a different look.

Honeycomb cellular shades help to reduce the amount of sunlight entering a room and the air conditioning load. In the winter, they help to prevent drafts due to glass windows or doors. They may be a part of a stunning window treatment used throughout the home.
