Create a Comfortable Environment with Whole Home Insulation

As summer begins to wind down and the cooler months approach, it might be time to consider how comfortable you find the inside of your home. Do you find yourself sweating during hot summer days and chilled once the temperature drops? Unfortunately, this most likely means your home is poorly insulated.

Luckily, there’s a cost-effective and beneficial way to fix this issue! Motorized window treatments provide not only convenience, enhanced design, and heightened security – but also insulation for your whole Minneapolis, MN home.

Keep reading below to learn how motorized shades can help you save energy and lower the monthly bills – and to maintain the utmost comfort in every part of your living space.

HOW DO SHADES’ INSULATION WORK?

So, after you’ve had your Lutron motorized shades installed throughout your home – how does their insulation work exactly? The art of their insulation comes down to the design and installation of the shades themselves. When professionally installed by our team at Lelch AV, the motorized shades create a natural gap between the window’s glass and the shades’ fabric material.

This “air gap” insulates your windows, trapping warm or cool air indoors and preventing it from escaping through the glass, like its wont to do. The best part? There are no additional installations needed once you have the shading in place. The air gap is all a part of a proper installation. There won’t be any hindrance to the shades’ functionality or design aspects in order to achieve this insulation.

Some motorized shades even have an additional air gap built into their design. Honeycomb shades’ pockets work as this added insulation, and the shading model’s style is a great fit for any area of your home.

SAVE ENERGY & LOWER BILLS

Not only can your automated shades keep your home feeling more comfortable, but it can also save you energy and lower your monthly HVAC bills. This energy-saving setup works like this:

If your smart thermostat notices an internal temperature increase or decrease, it can immediately alert your shades to lower or raise up, to get your home’s climate back to where you want it to be – regardless of what it feels like outside. Your shades will work with your system to ensure your HVAC doesn’t go into overdrive, attempting to adjust this temperature frequently.

The same goes for photosensors that can detect when the sun is shining too brightly, or when it’s okay to raise up your shades once more. This smart climate control integrated with your Lutron shades means you will see a reduction in your home’s energy usage – as well as a lowering of your costs!

Motorized shades make staying comfortable, saving energy, and lowering bills a breeze. You can provide this level of insulation to your entire home with our team’s help.
