Energy Star Saves Money


	Proven Savings on Cooling and Heating Costs

Did you know that 10-25% of your heating costs is wasted on heat seeping out of leaky windows? It costs about $1,300 to heat an average American home, that's up to $325 going right out the window! Energy Smart Symphony and Matinee Cellular Shades help to keep your home comfortable all year round while lowering your energy costs!

is lost through uncovered windows.

The Truth about Energy Loss
Energy Smart Cellular Shades control drafts at the source to keep homes at a constant temperature for longer periods of time. Less stress is placed on furnaces and air conditioning units, slowing wear and tear and promoting fuel and electricity conservation.

See for yourself with thermal photography. This series illustrates a common weather scenario - a 32 degree F day with a simulated room temperature of 68 degrees F.

You can see the difference!
Uncovered Window:
The blue in this photo indicates the temerature loss around an uncovered, single pane window.

The photo shows the same window wearing a Symphony Energy Smart Insulating Cellular shade. Note the colors indicate a temperature increase due to blocked drafts and covered surfaces.

Symphony and Matinee Cellular Shades insulate 3 ways:

1. Fights Convection: Seals gaps that may exist between the window and window frame, blocking the natural airflow and keeping warmer air inside during winter and outside during summer.

2. Fights Conduction: Energy Smart Cellular Shades create an effective barrier between the glass window and your room, preventing heat transfer with the non-woven polyester fabric and double-honeycomb cell structure.

3. Fights Radiation: Symphony and Matinee Cellular Shades trap heat between the window and the closed shade, making your room more comfortable.
