With so much surface area of modern houses dedicated to windows, having control over energy efficiency and privacy is an absolute must. Plantation shutters are the most energy-efficient window treatments available, and can even be installed on those aforementioned sliding glass doors and transom windows. For full-wall windows, shutters offer even more freedom in window coverage since you can open and shut individual sets of louvers, rather than having to pull a whole drapery over your window.

Keep your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer At Hunter Douglas, we're an industry leader in making a big energy savings difference at the window.

With window treatments that provide insulation, you can reduce energy consumption, save on heating and cooling costs, and create a more comfortable atmosphere. Solar Heat Control Icon Solar Heat Control The warmth provided by the sun, its solar energy, may be desirable during the winter to help heat your home, but in the summer, it can make a room overly hot and uncomfortable—driving up air conditioning costs. Many Hunter Douglas window fashions help to control solar heat by allowing it into your home in the winter and minimizing the amount that comes in during the summer. Daylighting Daylighting is the practice of lighting rooms with natural light rather than artificial light.By drawing natural light into a room many of our window treatments reduce the need for other types of lighting, thereby reducing your energy use 5 Tips for Saving Energy at the Window: 1) Ensure your windows and doors are properly weather-stripped. 2) Caulk around basement and storm windows. 3) When heating or cooling, keep windows locked. 4) Open your window coverings during sunny winter days to catch free solar heat then close them at night to keep that heat in. 5) Close your window coverings during summer days to keep the heat out. Innovation: All of our window fashions are designed and custom-assembled in the U.S. Our longstanding commitment to quality and innovation means you’ll enjoy choices at Hunter Douglas that you won’t find anywhere else.
