Window Treatments For Spring

Spring. Finally time to open up the windows again and breathe in fresh, delicious air. However as spring and summer roll around, the sun's rays get stronger and it's time to think about protecting your home against UV rays as well as the sun's heat. Spring shades and blinds bring in style to a home and help insulate against the sun's heat.

Temperatures are warming up and snow is melting across the country. With longer days and more sunshine, it's so nice to be outside, but when you're inside, it's important to be ready with the right window treatments. Having solar or roller shades can cut glare that strains eyes and reflects off surfaces like computers and TVs. The sun can also fade furniture, artwork, carpeting and more.

A few things to consider when buying window treatments for spring:

1. Solar screen shades. Solar screen shades work to insulate against the sun. With these, you can control light and heat, block glare and keep energy costs down. The openness factor refers to how much light is let in through the weave.

2. Soft Sheer Shades. There are two choices with these window treatments privacy or light filtering. Their make-up of nylon and polyester makes them a durable window treatment although they appear soft and fluid. They are Greenguard certified. With them it's easy to control how much light enters a home.

3. Bamboo Shades or Woven Wood Shades. In the summer, these keep the light out, but allow air to move through the home. The woven pattern provides a unique window treatment every time. There are a wide variety of stains to choose from to fit with other wood accents already in the home.

4. Roller Shades. Roller Shades are now soft to the touch. Roller shades offer classic, simple, clean lines. They also come in light filtering and blackout variety. The textures range from traditional to contemporary or more modern.

5. Honeycomb cellular shades. These shades have become extremely popular for insulating against the cold, but they don't get as much kudos for insulating against the heat, which they do equally well. The higher end products allow for a federal tax rebate. With top-down, bottom-up options, you get to control view, light and glare reduction.

Spring cleaning isn't just about cleaning, it's also a time to consider updating your home with more effective blinds. Old blinds and drapes can be recycled in many states. With new spring window treatments, you'll enjoy a much cooler spring season, protect against the sun's rays and protect your eyes!
