1. Sleek Modern Design

The horizontal pleats of Duette® Honeycomb Shades provide a sleek, modern design that is guaranteed to please. With the Alustra® Collection of Duette, you can choose from a wide array of fabrics and design options carefully curated by designers for looks that will complement any home.

2. Energy Efficiency

Did you know that honeycomb shades improve the energy efficiency of your home? There are a lot of window treatments that can make your home look great, but Duette® also works hard to make your home more comfortable. The unique honeycomb design creates cells of trapped air that insulate your windows from outside temperatures, keeping your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. Your bank account will love it as much as your body–decreasing the strain on your HVAC system means you’ll spend less on energy costs each year while remaining comfortable. With Duette Architella® Honeycomb Shades, you get double the insulation. Architella® creates two layers of air pockets instead of just one for a product you’ll love twice as much!

3. Sound Absorption

Not only do Duette® Honeycomb Shades keep your room at a more comfortable temperature, they also help keep the interior of your home quieter. The enclosed layer of air absorbs up to 70 percent of sound energy, significantly reducing the noise pollution inside your home. This is especially helpful for homes near busy intersections and highways.

4. Light Reduction

If keeping your room dark for better sleep or movie-watching experiences is a priority for you, Duette® Honeycomb Shades do more than just offer opaque fabrics. The LightLockTM system adds a u-shape channel that blends in with your window frame and overlaps the edge of the shades to reduce light leakage.

5. Vertical Applications

Duette® Honeycomb Shades typically come in a horizontal orientation, but they’re also available for vertical applications when you choose the Duette® VertiglideTM operating system. This is ideal for large expanses of glass, including sunrooms and patio doors.

6. Automation

Duette® Honeycomb Shades are compatible with modern technology, not just modern interior design. Add PowerView® Automation to your Duette® Honeycomb Shades to gain all the convenience of controlling your shades with the Pebble® Remote or with the PowerView® App. PowerView® also offers scheduling features, so you can set your Duette® Honeycomb Shades to close during the hottest part of the day, improving the energy efficiency of your home even more! PowerView® Automation is compatible with a variety of home automation systems, including popular options such as Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit, and Amazon Alexa. Pair with your preferred home assistant and use simple voice commands to control your Duette® Honeycomb Shades.
