    Automated Shades Improve Efficiency

    In warm Georgia summers, especially in Athens and Atlanta, glare and heat gain can quickly make interiors uncomfortable. Motorized window shades offer effective insulation, reducing heat buildup during the summer and helping retain warmth when temperatures drop, which in turn lowers energy use and cuts costs.

    Manual shade adjustments throughout the house become a thing of the past, replaced by motorized shading systems that respond at your command. When you activate them, your home shifts to match weather conditions, lighting changes, or your daily routine. Experience a living space that stays comfortable and energy-efficient while you go about your day with ease.

    Improve Comfort with Stylish Window Treatments

    Greet each morning with beautiful natural light and reduce harsh glare with a quick command. Choose from a wide range of fabrics, colors, and opacities to match your style and tailor light control to your needs, whether you crave bright sunlight or a cozy, shaded space.

    "About 30% of a home's heating energy is lost through windows. In cooling seasons, about 76% of sunlight that falls on standard double-pane windows enters to become heat. Window coverings can help with this loss of energy by providing comfort, regulating temperatures, and lowering energy bills."
