Save Energy with Duette and Honeycomb Blinds

With energy prices constantly on the rise, it can often leave homeowners feeling like they are victims, exploited by these rising prices! With this in mind, there is now more emphasis on ways you can improve your homes energy efficiency, so that you don’t have to fall subject to expensive energy bills dropping through your letterbox every month.

Duette (honeycomb) blinds

A survey carried out by leading blind manufacturer, Duette, revealed that a staggering 50% of domestic heat is lost through windows, as frames and sills allow heat to seep out. So what is the solution?

In the ideal world, everybody would love to have a blind that can insulate your home without compromising on style or functionality. This is exactly what Duette blinds can offer.

With over 20 years of research and development, Duette blinds consist of two layers of fabric which meet at the end to form a hexagon, honeycomb shape, hence their nickname, honeycomb blinds. This unique structure allows cold air to trap between the two layers, preventing it from entering your home and has been proven to reduce heat loss by up to 46%. Similarly, their original shape also keeps your rooms cooler during the summer months, as it traps the hot air in between the layers of fabric. Therefore, Duette blinds are excellent at keeping your room at a comfortable and consistent temperature, all year round.

Which rooms are they suitable for?

These blinds are very aesthetically pleasing, making them suitable for any room in the house, from bedrooms to kitchens and living rooms. However, they are also a very popular blind choice for conservatories. Known for being too cold in the winter and too hot in the summer, conservatories can benefit hugely from good quality, honeycomb blinds that have the ability to regulate the room’s usually extreme temperature.

Quality and fit

Although there are many different types of honeycomb blinds available on the market which claim to offer the same thing, Duette is the original energy saving blind that does not make any compromises. It’s durable material will not become bleached by the sun’s UV rays, so you can choose which colour and fabric will best suit your interior with ease.

As made to measure blinds, they can be installed to beautifully fit any shape or size of window in your house, so you can reap the benefits regardless of your window type!

So, if you want to start saving energy – and money – then why not create an insulating blanket and consider honeycomb blinds for your home and you can start saving up to 25% on your annual bill.  With many different colours, styles and materials available, you can select the one that best fits in with your home’s interior.
