Choosing Skylight Shades for Homes
Seattleites get to enjoy lots of exciting features in their homes, including forward-thinking house designs that offer lots of natural light. Being in the Pacific Northwest, one advantage that comes with the overcast weather is the soft light you can let inside your home. Because of this, many homes in the Seattle area feature skylights. You can make the most of this stylish feature by adding custom skylight shades from Hunter Douglas to your home.
Why Install Skylight Shades?
While it may seem a bit contradictory to add shades to your portals to more natural light in your home, adding shades to your skylights will allow you to have control over every bit of light in each room. So, when the sun is at its brightest and you want to keep your home cooler during heatwaves, you can keep UV rays and heat at bay by getting some shade in your home.
When it comes to the approaching winter season, you can also keep your home warmer by adding skylight shades to your home. The Duette® Honeycomb Shades are available with the SkyLift™ Skylight operating system and you can get more than just light control and style when you add these shades to your home. The insulating cells will help you save on energy, reducing your carbon footprint and helping you spend less on your energy bills each month.
So, how do skylight shades even work?
PowerView® Automation
No window stays out of reach when you add PowerView® Automation to your home windows. This innovative remote-control system works quickly and quietly to adjust your custom skylight shades using your device of choice.
The battery-powered system can be operated from remote controls or wall-mounts and you can even download the PowerView® app on your smartphone or tablet to unlock the most features. You can link that app to Amazon Alexa, Google Home, or Siri to activate your scene settings using voice commands.
Another benefit of using the app is the scene scheduler. You can schedule your shades to move at just the right times to save energy and let the right amount of light inside throughout the day. So, if you want your shades to open up as the sun rises and close when it gets cooler during the evening, all you have to do is go into the app.
Customizing Your Skylight Shades
Your skylight shades are far more than just a utility for your home. You can customize Duette® Honeycomb Shades to match your sense of style. Between the large selection of fabrics, colors, opacities, and textures, there’s no limit to what you can come up with. You can even choose multi-layered honeycomb shades for even more effective energy-savings throughout the year.
Here at Wessco Blinds, we are proud to offer a great selection of custom skylight shades from Hunter Douglas. We are located in Seattle, WA and offer our services to the surrounding areas. Visit our showroom to find the perfect shades for your skylight windows and the rest of your home!
