Energy-Efficient Shades FAQs
Are you shades truly energy efficient?
Yes! Hunter Douglas is the first manufacturer to earn a national energy performance rating and certification for interior window coverings through the Attachments Energy Rating Council (AERC), a third-party verified national program for the energy and performance of window attachments.
In winter, our AERC certified products are proven to help keep interiors warmer, help prevent heat from escaping the home, use natural sunlight to warm the home, eliminate chilly drafts, and lower heating costs.
In summer, our AERC certified products are proven to help keep interiors cooler, block sun heat gain, minimize harsh sun and glare, help prevent hot outside air from entering the home, and lower cooling costs.
What kind of light control do your energy-efficient shades provide?
Our energy efficient shades come in a variety of opacities, from room darkening to light filtering. Some of our shades are available with Duolite® — a system that combines light-filtering and room-darkening fabrics into a single shade for flexible light control. Top-down/bottom-up operation is also available on some of our energy-efficient shades, which provides even more flexible light control.
Can energy-efficient shades be applied to doors?
Yes. We have several energy-efficient styles for doors.
We also offer a vertical application called Vertiglide™ which is a vertical cellular shade application. It is an ideal choice for vertical side-to-side openings, sliding-glass doors, or used as room dividers. It is child-safe, cordless, and available with manual operation or with PowerView® Automation.
Your Drapery Street designer will help you decide which energy-efficient shade is the best fit for your doors.
Can energy-efficient shades be applied to skylights?
Yes. Our SkyLift™ skylight system, available on our energy-efficient Duette® Shades, is specifically suited for skylights. Choose PowerView® Automation for these shades, or manual operation with a hand crank or telescoping pole for hard-to-reach windows. Either way, the SkyLift system is perfect for very large, overhead windows.
What is the TrackGlide™ system?
The innovative TrackGlide system is perfect for European style tilt-turn windows that tilt inwards at the top or swing inwards like a door. The shades are kept in place, regardless of whether your window is closed, tilted or turned. Also suitable for French doors, TrackGlide is available with the LiteRise® and PowerView® Automation operating systems.
What is the LightLock™ styem?
LightLock™ is a room-darkening system carefully engineered to prevent light leakage at the window and create a blissful, unparalleled room blackout effect.
Shades with LightLock™ use unique U-shaped side channels that overlap the front and back of the shades. The secret to unparalleled room darkening lies within the patent-pending side channel design, which features rows of specially shaped micro-ridges, optimized to absorb or deflect nearly all incoming light while preventing the light from seeping into the room.
The system is compatible with Hunter Douglas PowerView® Automation for easy control of shades via the PowerView App or with voice-activation through Amazon Alexa, the Google Assistant and Apple HomeKit.
LightLock™ provides homeowners with unparalleled darkness for improved sleep, the perfect movie-watching environment, as well as insulation at the window to control heat and save on energy bills.

Hardwired shades offer the cleanest, most seamless experience for automation. Don’t miss your one chance to pre-wire! Once the drywall is up, that window is closed (unless you want to cut into fresh walls… not recommended!). Even if you’re not ready for automated shades now, pre-wiring gives you the option later.
Start early, avoid regrets!

Bay window blues? Not in this bedroom! 💙
Soft Roman shades in a textured neutral tone provide contrast against the blue walls, but the coordinating trim ties the whole look together.

A laundry room full of pattern & personality. The charming café curtains add the perfect finishing touch.
So pretty, you might actually look forward to laundry day! 🧺💕

Just kidding… we’d never be able to keep our mouths shut on this topic! 😬
So, why do we dislike grommets so much?
1️⃣ They’ll never give you a high-end look. When stacked, they look skimpy. When closed, they look like bedsheets in the window. Even when professionally dressed, the moment you use them, they lose their shape.
2️⃣ They’re not designed to function well. Opening and closing them is a pain, and you shouldn’t have to sacrifice functionality for style.
3️⃣ They’re expensive to manufacture in the U.S., and overseas options often come with quality and ethical concerns.
Ripplefold draperies are a great alternative to grommet curtains. They provide a similar look but actually stay looking nice while functioning smoothly.
We know this is a hot take! 🔥 Do you agree or disagree?

Moody, refined, and made for great conversation 🥃
You can always tell when window treatments are an afterthought… and when they’re not. The draperies in this cocktail lounge blend so naturally into the space that it’s clear they were a part of the design vision from the start.
