Cellular shades are the workhorse of the window coverings world; they do it all! They filter light beautifully, provide privacy, offer an energy efficient insulating layer between conditioned indoor air and the glass, are immune to the effects of humidity, and are stylish to boot. BB Commercial Solutions’ cellular window shades can drastically reduce the amount of heat lost during the cold winter months and can keep your building cooler during the hot summer months. Commercial shades are a great way to help lower your bottom line and improve on energy spending. According to the U.S. Department of Energy you can cut heat gain and loss by up to 25% if you use the correct combination of window treatments. Heat loss and gain is measured by R-Value, which indicates ability to reduce the flow of heat. The higher the R-value, the better its resistance of heat gain or loss. Double honeycomb cellular shades have high R-value and great insulating qualities that can result in substantial energy savings, year after year.
