Why You Should Install Room-Darkening Shades in Your TN Home

Natural light can make your house warm and inviting, but too much sunlight can make your home unbearably hot in the summer. Glare from the sun can make it hard to use electronic devices, which can cause frustration and reduce your productivity. Over time, the sun can make your home’s furniture, flooring, and artwork become faded or discolored. Installing room-darkening shades can solve all these problems! Learn more below.

Blackout Shades vs. Room-Darkening Shades

People often confuse these kinds of window treatments. Blackout shades are intended to keep out as much light as possible. They can be a good choice for people who work at night and sleep during the day.

Room-darkening shades also block out light, but not as much as blackout shades do. With room-darkening shades, you’ll still have enough light to work or enjoy spending time with your family.

Types of Room-Darkening Shades

Window shades come in several styles, and many of them can darken a room. Knox Blinds offers window treatments that can block out light to varying degrees.

Cellular shades, also known as honeycomb shades, have a series of air pockets that filter out light. Cellular shades also provide insulation, which can help keep your utility bills down.

Roller shades can filter out light, eliminate glare, and protect your home’s furnishings from sun-related damage. We sell roller shades with numerous patterns, designs, and textures.

Woven wood shades can add natural beauty to any room in your home. We offer woven wood shades in a variety of styles, including room-darkening options.
