Woven Wood Shades

In addition to beauty, woven wood shades provide another important benefit. As with other types of wood blinds and shades, they are energy efficient. Since window treatments are an investment, you will want to ensure energy efficiency in your home decor, as well as beauty and comfort.

There are several factors to consider in determining the most energy-efficient blind or shade. The R value is the rating that indicates the effectiveness of a blind or shade at insulating energy. You want a window covering to prevent the flow of warmth or cool air to the outside. The higher the R value, the better the insulation ability. In addition to R value, you should also consider the shading coefficient. This is the difference between the amount of heat lost from a window with a covering versus a window without a window covering.

You should also consider the UV transmittance. This is the amount of ultra violet rays and solar energy passed through the window covering versus the amount of solar energy absorbed by the covering. Lastly, you should consider how much light and noise are passed through the window covering.

Woven wood shades are highly efficient when evaluated with these energy factors. They are also aesthetically pleasing and a gorgeous addition to any room. With woven wood shades, you can transform any room into both a peaceful haven and an energy-efficient cost saver.
