Discover Energy Efficient Window Treatments

It’s never too early to prepare your home for the hot summer months ahead. There are several things you can do now that will help you beat the heat this summer by creating a more energy-efficient home. One part of your home that only involves a small change that can reap major benefits, is your choice of window treatments. Your windows can be responsible for up to 30% of lost energy, making it more difficult to keep your home cool and shaded during the summer. At WTI Inc., we carry a complete selection of Hunter Douglas window treatments, including energy ­window shades in a variety of styles to suit your preferences. This month, we’re taking the time to unpack a few of our favorite styles and what they can bring to your home.
