Day after day as the temperature hits 90 degrees, your air conditioner is undoubtedly working overtime—and costing you a lot of money. Or, worse yet, you may be choosing to not run your air all the time—which means you are living in uncomfortable temperatures both inside and out. If this is you, we have good news. You don’t have to sacrifice comfort to save money. The right kind of window coverings are the solution you need. Duette shades are a favored option to save your home from the summer heat. They insulate at the window to keep your home a comfortable temperature—no matter the weather outside—which gives your AC a break and you some extra cash in your pocket.
While the summer sun is gorgeous, gazing at it often hurts your eyes. How often do you find yourself reaching for your sunglasses as you drive around the busy streets of Reno? Do you ever reach for them at home? You might not realize how much the summer sun is affecting the atmosphere of your home. Windows that face east and west let in direct sunlight and heat all day. Ones that face north and south can produce blinding glare. Finding the perfect shades for your windows is just as important as finding your own favorite pair! We can help you choose window covering solutions, like top-down bottom-up window shades, that diffuse glare and allow you to control how much and where light comes into your home. Save your home from the summer heat and give it the look and feel you want.

Let our team help you find window covering solutions that will save your home from the summer heat and put extra spending cash in your wallet.

Every home has its tricky spots. And solving those issues is not always easy - sometimes you create problems by solving other ones. When it comes to light control solutions, versatility is your most important characteristic, offering you solutions that will fit your lifestyle.

With top down bottom up window coverings, you can adjust your custom window shades exactly where you need them to be so you feel comfortable with your privacy. The beauty of this operating feature is that you still can enjoy natural light filling your rooms. You can still take in the beauty of the trees and sky right outside your home. No sacrifice here, but all the privacy you and your family need.
The environment within your home should be all you want it to be. Pleasant and relaxing, you should spend time in your home without complication or frustration. With top down bottom up window coverings, adjust your window shades based on circumstance. Feel like watching TV in the afternoon? No problem. The glare is diffused, even though natural light can be welcomed in through other parts of the window. Exactly what you need and want, every time.
Make no mistake - one of the biggest issues for homeowners in the Reno area is temperature control. The intensity of direct sunlight can make those utility bills skyrocket.
