How much of a difference do insulating blinds make?

Duette insulating blinds look amazing and help control the temperature of your home.

Better insulation
“The main benefit of insulating blinds is that they are truly designed to improve insulation,” says Susan Brooke, Lahood’s senior design consultant. “When about 45% of heat loss occurs through windows, it’s no surprise they make a practical and attractive option.”

Luxaflex Duette ‘honeycomb’ or ‘cellular’ blinds are the original and are still the best insulating blind available. Luxaflex Duettes retained more heat than any other blinds when tested by Consumer NZ. The pleated reinforced fabrics form special compartments trapping air and in turn providing up to 33% more insulation than double glazing. “With these blinds fitted throughout your home, you’ll be able to enjoy a comfortable living environment all year round regardless of the temperature outside,” explains Susan.

Improved comfort and visual design
“Everyone wants to improve the look and feel of their home, and that’s why Luxaflex Duette blinds are a popular choice with architects and designers. They look great and work hard,” says Susan.

Lahood has an impressive range of designs to complement the aesthetic of any room, from linen, sheer drapes and blockout fabrics, to soft or hard textured fabrics that complete a design story. With an extensive and exclusive range of blind fabrics available you can easily create a simple and elegant look throughout your home and updating to Luxaflex Duette blinds will always add value.

Energy efficiency
Insulating blinds reserve heat and save energy. This is welcome news for anyone who wants to ensure that they are being economical and power efficient at all times. Just as importantly, you’ll be doing your part to safeguard the planet and reduce harmful emissions that can impact the environment. “Our clients find themselves less dependent on heaters during winter and air conditioning units during summer, which is a win-win for everybody,” says Susan.
