The Many Features & Benefits of Automated Shades 

When you’ve used regular window shades, drapes, and blinds your whole life, it’s easy to wonder if it’s worth upgrading to motorized window shades. After all, you’ve gotten by fine without them—why change now? 

But people said the same thing about cars, talking in movies, and even bicycles. Once you’ve experienced the convenience and comfort of motorized window shades in your Pinecrest, FL, home, it’s hard to go back. 

Here are some of the benefits you can expect when living with motorized shades!

Respond to Your Environment & Routine 

When motorized shades are integrated into a smart home system like Lutron or Crestron, you can tell shades to raise and lower at specific times each day, and automatically, they’ll adjust to your schedule. Sunlight sensors cue shades to adjust depending on the sun, so you always have comfort or privacy when you need it. 

Automatically Keep Your Home Cool

All motorized shades can reduce heat gain in your home, but Lutron’s honeycomb shades use a cellular design to add extra insulation against your windows. So, on hot days, you can keep rooms cooler and rely less on your AC unit—helping you save energy through the hottest months in Florida. 

Prevent Fading in the Sun 

Everyone knows UV rays harm our skin, but they also damage home goods like photography, artwork, books, and fabrics. Thankfully, motorized shades offer a solution to prevent your home interiors from fading. Automated shades can automatically lower when the sun strikes sensors in the window, so you’ll preserve your belongings for years to come.
