How window treatments affect sun heat and comfort, which types add the most insulation and why fit and daily use matter more than any single product.
Windows are where a home gains and loses heat, and a treatment adds a layer of control. The effect depends on the product, the fit and how you use it. Homeowners in Nashville are curious about savings, and we try to give honest, realistic answers.
Cellular shades trap air, lined drapes add a thick layer, solar shades block sun before it warms a room and shutters add a sturdy barrier. A treatment that seals at the edges does more than one with gaps, and one that is closed at the right time does more than one that stays open. We avoid promising numbers because results vary.
