Energy efficiency and helping lower your energy costs is one of their great aspects of cellular and honeycomb shades.  It is said that they are a “stylish way to boost the energy efficiency in your home.” The closed cell design of the cellular/honeycomb shades create pockets of air that insulate windows from heat and cold to lower your energy bills year round – summer or winter.  In addition, cellular and honeycomb shades are sound absorbent, and help to reduce noise – especially in rooms with hardwood or vinyl flooring.
