Selecting Blinds & Shades for Your New Home

By Jerry Stewart

Blinds and Shades for Your New HomeWindow Treatments for New Construction in Camden, Morgan and Miller Counties

Are you building a new home? The number of decisions you’ll have to make can feel overwhelming. We can help you with one of the most important decisions you’ll need to make – selecting blinds and shades. The windows in your new home likely were given careful consideration regarding their placement and size. How you cover them is just as important!

Consider Energy Efficiency of Blinds & Shades

With a majority of heating and cooling coming in from the windows, window treatments are an important part of your overall energy efficiency plan for your new home. Especially with the extreme weather here in Missouri, you want to make sure you maximize your air conditioning in the summer and heat in the winter. Hunter Douglas features many styles of window treatments that allow you to save money on energy while not sacrificing style. Hunter Douglas Architella honeycomb shades have a state-of-the-art honeycomb-within-a-honeycomb design giving them the industry’s highest level of energy efficiency. Studies have shown that these honeycomb shades can reduce energy loss by up to 50%!

Motorization and Other Lifting System Options

New construction is the perfect opportunity to consider motorization and home automation options. Though battery operated options are available, hard-wired home automation systems are easy to install during new construction.As a Hunter Douglas gallery store, Windows & More offers a large variety of lifting systems on our window coverings, from state-of-the-art motorized options to innovative manual options. Lifting options on Hunter Douglas window coverings provide you with greater ease, convenience and enhanced child and pet safety.

Controlling Light and Privacy with Your Blinds

Whether you’re looking for honeycomb shades, blinds, sheers, or shadings, Hunter Douglas products allow you to re-direct and reflect sunlight in many different ways.When selecting window treatments for your new home, light and privacy control can be a challenge. Study the sun patterns in your new location with regard to the angle of your windows and the view outside. You may need to spend some time in your home while it’s under construction to determine the light and privacy requirements for your new window treatments.

Window Treatment Style

Of course, style is one of the primary considerations when selecting new window treatments. Consider your overall decor when selecting window coverings, as well as versatility. Select designs, colors, and styles that can work as you change other elements of your room design. Explore mix and match options, including using drapery and other soft treatments to enhance the look of your hard window treatments.
