GreenGuard-certified window shades meet high standard for air quality
Aug 12 2011
Planning for a new window treatment should include considering energy savings that come with certain types of shades and blinds.
A typical home can lose a considerable amount of heat through windows in cold months, and allow heat to seep into a home during warm months.
But choosing a window covering made of durable, energy-saving material goes a long way to solving the energy problem, while lowering utility bills in the process. They also are a hedge against sunlight fading of home furnishings.
Blinds Chalet not only offers a wide selection of energy-saving
window shades and blinds, but some of this special inventory also has GreenGuard certification, which is granted by the GreenGuard Environmental Institute for products that meet the institute's standards for indoor air quality. They are currently on sale with 30 percent off the regular price.
Among the GreenGuard-certified
window treatments offered by Blinds Chalet are honeycomb double
cellular shades in both translucent and blackout materials. They are available in top down bottom up style for no additional charge.
Blackout
roller shades as well as horizontal fabric shades and soft
sheer shades in both light filtering and room darkening materials are available with this special certification.
Solar screen shades are certified in a variety of weights, including sheer weave and 5 percent openness weave.
