How Do Honeycomb Shades Work?

Honeycomb shades are products that control light, reduce noise pollution, come in various styles, and can even reduce your home’s energy usage. Using honeycomb shades in your home gives you the opportunity to combine aesthetics and function.

If that last benefit caught your eye, then you probably have a budding curiosity about honeycomb shades. You’ve heard their benefits, but how exactly do these shades work? We are here to discuss the detailed construction of these shades and why they are an excellent choice for your home.

Honeycomb shades earned their name due to their cellular construction that looks like a honeycomb. Of course, this construction is not just for aesthetic purposes. Each cellular pocket traps air at your windows to prevent air from moving in and out of your home. As a result, this added insulation keeps your home cool in the summer and warm in the winter without you adjusting your thermostat or AC. This can help reduce your home’s overall energy usage and bills. If you have a room that is particularly hot in the summer or freezing in the winter, then this added insulation even helps solve that problem.

One popular honeycomb shade option from Hunter Douglas are Duette® Cellular Shades.

Besides providing insulation, these shades provide gorgeous lighting for inviting ambiance and stunning fabrics that can elevate your home’s style. Plus, several fabrics are made from over 50 percent recycled material, so you can shop sustainably when looking to decorate your windows, contributing to a clean environment.

These shades offer exceptional sound absorption to reduce outside noise pollution and help improve your home’s acoustics. This is particularly nice if you live on a busy street or have a home that echoes due to hardwood flooring because the honeycomb shades muffle the sound.

Finally, these cellular shades from Hunter Douglas come in various custom colors that can blend in with your current decor or stand out as a focal piece. We are happy to guide you through our available collection so you can see and feel the beautiful quality Hunter Douglas has to offer.
