3 Insulating Window Treatment Solutions For Anchorage Winters
If you’re looking for new window treatments for your Anchorage home, don’t forget about how cold it gets during the winter! Some window treatments offer extra insulation for your windows to help keep your Anchorage home more comfortable and improve its energy efficiency.
Our Anchorage window blinds company helps local customers choose window treatments all the time, so we’d like to offer you a few suggestions. If energy-efficiency and winter comfort is important to you, here are 3 insulating window treatment solutions to consider.
Honeycomb Shades To Insulate Your Windows
Honeycomb shades are a type of solar shade because they keep the heat from the sun from entering your house. Here in Anchorage, we want to make the most of the sun’s warmth so you may think keeping it out is a bad idea.
What most people don’t know is that honeycomb shades also make the perfect solution for winter climates because they trap the heat produced by the furnace inside the house and act as a shield to the cold outside. They do still allow plenty of light in when they’re closed, just not the heat.
Insulated Drapes For Style & Energy Efficiency
Thermal lined draperies will provide the most insulation for your windows in Anchorage. The thick thermal backing of insulated drapery is ideal for winter months in climates like ours. They work well to keep the heat inside your home and will make a noticeable improvement in the comfort level of your home even if you have the old single-pane windows.
Woven Wood Shades, The Natural Window Insulator
Because wood is a natural insulator, woven wood shades can help to keep your Anchorage home more comfortable during the winter. You can also get woven wood shades with liners for extra insulation. Quality woven wood shades made in the USA will give you the most value because the material and the operating systems last longer.
