What Window Covering Solution Do You Need
First, Identify Your Goal
Before you exert any other brain power by looking at window coverings that might not be for you, let’s first identify your goal. What is it you need your window coverings to do? This will guide you to the right group of coverings for you. Do you need to control the heat? Are you looking for privacy? Do you want light control or are you simply looking for decorative options?
Ok, got that in mind? Let’s take a look.
Window Coverings for Heat Control
This is probably the number one concern for homeowners in Arizona - the heat. In the winter a staggering 30% of heat is lost through the windows and during the summer, heat can find its way inside the same way. To keep your home at a comfortable temperature, look at cellular shades. These shades are made with cells between layers of fabric that create insulating air pockets. These have the highest R-value, or the ability to resist the transfer of heat, of all window options.
Window Coverings for Privacy
All window coverings offer some amount of privacy which is great! But if you want to prioritize privacy over all else there are some clearly great options to look at. Start your search with any of these five types of coverings: blackout blinds, Venetian blinds, Roman blinds, Vertical blinds, and plantation shutters. Alright, you got a few options there so get digging!
Window Coverings for Light Control
Similar to how all window coverings offer some amount of privacy, all of them also control heat to some degree. Some might block it out entirely, while others diffuse it into the home in a controlled manner. If you want no light into your home you’re looking to outfit your window with blackout blinds.
