Beat the Heat with New Custom Window Treatments

When the Southern sun turns up the volume, the only sound you might hear is the steady hum of your air conditioner. But if you’re looking for a way to save on your energy bill every month and keep that A/C running less often, you might want to consider the benefits of custom window treatments. Choosing the right window covering can allow you to beat the heat and enjoy the Nashville summer with a glass of iced tea in your cool, dark room and a favorite book—instead of fanning yourself with its pages.

Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades near Nashville, Tennessee (TN)

That’s where we come to the rescue. At Blind and Shutter Gallery located in beautiful Nashville, we are home to a variety of Hunter Douglas custom window treatments that will help you beat the heat with room-darkening, insulating, and UV-protecting shades.

Cellular Shades Add Energy Efficiency

Duette® Cellular Shades, also known as honeycomb shades, are renowned for their insulating qualities that keep the inside air in and outside air out. Their special honeycomb-shaped pockets trap the air at the window in their discreet cells and keeps it from penetrating the interior of your home, keeping your space cool and quiet—a perfect setting for an intense summer day.

For homes that require additional insulation, Duette® Architella® Cellular Shades offer a special honeycomb-within-a-honeycomb cell design to double the energy efficiency, meaning that you can run you’re A/C less and enjoy your summer more.

Woven Woods to Unleash an Earthy Cool

Nothing cools a space down than blocking the sun—and you can add UV protection in style with the natural textures and colors of Provenance ® Woven Wood Shades. Artistically woven from natural materials like woods, reeds, grasses, and bamboo, these shades will offer dramatic style and organic texture to your interiors while blocking the sun’s UV rays at your windows.

You can select from a variety of style choices such as Roman, waterfall Roman, recessed Roman, and vertical drapery to fit any window size and orientation. With the Duolite® feature, you can add an independent room-darkening liner, to add even more privacy and insulating benefits that will keep your area cool and calm for those long Tennessee summer afternoons.

Our superior Top-Down/Bottom-Up LiteRise® system allows you to control just where your shade is opened or closed. This extra control will allow you to keep your space cool but still enjoy a few rays of sun.

Roller Shades for a Minimalist Refresh

For windows with functionality in mind but with a custom flair, Designer Solar Shades are an excellent option. These shades possess the ease and simplicity of a roller shade with UV-protecting qualities that are perfect for sunrooms and patios.

Choose from five different fabric opacities and sustainable options like the Hunter Douglas exclusive GreenScreen® Sea-Tex fabric collection, made from recycled sea plastics. Select shades and hardware in colors to suit your space, and choose control systems to make maneuvering your shades a breeze, including PowerView® Automation, a smart motorization system that works at the touch of a button with the Pebble® remote or PowerView® app. You can save energy and keep cool when you schedule your shades to rise or lower following the sun’s pattern.
