Why You Should Invest in Vertical Window Shades this Fall

Offering superior temperature control, light, and privacy, we offer a great selection of window treatments from Alta® Window Fashions and Hunter Douglas to help transform your windows. Here are a few styles from our collection of top-rated brands and some reasons why you’ll love them this season and beyond!

Autumn is all about short days and cozy nights. That’s why we recommend investing in window treatments that make the most out of the sun while it’s up. Since the sun is lower in the sky during fall, you will also want styles that can prevent glare, especially in rooms with east- and west-facing windows. Vertical shades achieve both goals beautifully. With light-filtering fabrics, vertical shades help reduce glare while maximizing sunlight during those shorter fall days.

Luminette® Sheer Panels from Hunter Douglas feature 180-degree rotating vanes to diffuse light into a space while providing privacy and UV protection, making it an excellent shade for late summer and early fall nights in Ohio. While the sun is up, these shades fill your home with a beautiful glow that filters light, which can create a sense of whimsy in your space. Meanwhile, the vanes provide excellent privacy and insulation to keep your home cozy once the sun has dipped.

While we wish those crisp, warm afternoons could last forever, autumn temperatures often give way to morning frost and chilly nights. If your large windows are improperly covered, they could cause your home’s heating to leak and cold air to creep in. Your HVAC system will work overtime, and your energy bills will skyrocket. That’s where vertical cellular shades come into play.

Both Hunter Douglas and Alta® offer cellular shades near Toledo, OH, that help improve your home’s energy efficiency. Consider Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades in a vertical orientation, or select Alta® Honeycomb Shades depending on your preference, as both options are great window treatments for improving energy efficiency at your windows.

Crafted with an insulating cellular design, these shades help trap air at the window to keep your home cozy during the colder months while diffusing light and providing privacy. The result is a window treatment that works hard while looking effortlessly beautiful against sliding glass doors and other large windows.

Covering wide windows beautifully, vertical window shades control light while providing privacy when you need it most. Their effortless operation also makes it easy to adjust these shades when you want to enjoy your views, filtered sunlight, or complete privacy. So, whether your windows face a busy street or your neighbors, your new window treatments can help you enjoy the perfect amount of privacy.

With the leaves falling, the days growing shorter, and the weather dropping, autumn is the perfect season to change up your window treatments. If you have wide window treatments or sliding glass doors, we cannot recommend vertical window treatments enough. Providing light control, insulation, and privacy, this window treatment style is an investment you won’t regret.
