LEVOLOR Blackout Single Cellular Shades

Yes, cellular shades are energy efficient and provide significant energy efficiency benefits. They are designed to be cost-effective by reducing energy bills through minimizing heat loss in winter and keeping spaces cooler in summer. The unique honeycomb structure creates an added layer of insulation that helps regulate indoor temperatures, making them effective at blocking light while enhancing comfort throughout the year. Heading into the colder months, this extra layer of insulation is worth adding before drafts set in. Cellular shades are Blindster's top ​energy-efficiency product, and both single-cell and double-cell options help cut drafts at your windows, with double-cell adding a second air pocket for even greater efficiency.

To measure for cellular shades, start by determining whether you want to mount them inside the wall or window frame, or outside the frame. For an inside mount, measure the width and height of the window frame at three points (top, middle, and bottom) to ensure a snug fit. For an outside mount, measure the width and height of the area you wish to cover, allowing for a sufficient distance beyond the window frame to block light effectively.

Installing cellular shades is a straightforward process. First, gather your tools and the necessary mounting hardware that comes with the product. For an inside mount, ensure the brackets are level and securely attached to the frame. Position the brackets above the window for outside mounts, ensuring they are centered and level. Once the brackets are in place, attach the cellular shades by sliding them into the mounts.

To clean cellular shades, start by dusting them regularly with a soft cloth or a vacuum with a brush attachment to remove any surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, you can gently wipe them with a damp cloth, ensuring that you do not soak the fabric. If there are stains, spot clean using a mild detergent and water. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material. Regular maintenance will keep your cellular shades looking fresh and stylish, enhancing their energy-efficient properties and prolonging their lifespan.

While cellular shades offer excellent privacy, they may not be the best choice for bathrooms or kitchens. Since they are made of soft fabric, they tend to absorb moisture, which can lead to odors and deterioration over time. In areas exposed to showers or cooking, such as bathroom or kitchen areas, the humidity can affect their durability. If you choose to install cellular shades, consider using them in locations where they won’t be directly exposed to excessive steam.
