What they are
Cellular shades for Howell’s sun and cold
A cellular shade is pleated fabric shaped into honeycomb pockets that hold a layer of air against the glass. That trapped air is what makes cellular shades one of the most insulating window treatments you can put on a window.
Out in Livingston County, the weather comes straight across open fields. Many subdivision homes around Howell were built on open land where the trees are still young, so south and west windows soak up the afternoon sun in July, and the same glass feels cold on a windy January night. Cellular shades help a room on both counts, then stack neatly at the top when you want the view.
In the older homes near downtown, slim headrails fit inside many original window frames. For great rooms with tall windows, cellular shades can be motorized so you never need a ladder, and top-down/bottom-up styles let light in over the shade. As a Hunter Douglas authorized dealer, we bring Duette® honeycomb shades with PowerView® motorization, along with other cellular fabrics, to compare at your windows.

Where cellular shades work best
Cellular shades suit almost any room. These are the spots where homeowners love them most.
Bedrooms
Room darkening or blackout fabrics help with early sunrises and light from streetlights.
Living rooms
Light filtering fabrics soften glare on the TV while keeping the room bright.
Drafty or sunny windows
The honeycomb pockets help on cold north windows and hot west-facing ones.
Kids’ rooms & nurseries
Cordless lift systems remove dangling cords, and blackout fabrics help nap time.
Light control, privacy and comfort
What a cellular shade does for a room, window by window.
Soft light control
Choose how much light comes through, from a gentle glow to near total darkness.
Privacy
Top-down/bottom-up shades let you lower the top for daylight while the bottom stays covered.
Energy efficiency
Air trapped in the cells adds insulation at the glass, helping rooms stay comfortable.
UV protection
Shades filter sunlight that can fade floors, furniture and artwork over time.
Operating options & care
Cordless, motorized and easy to care for
Most cellular shades are ordered cordless: you simply push the bottom rail up or pull it down, and it stays where you leave it. For tall or hard-to-reach windows, motorization lets you raise and lower shades with a remote, an app or a schedule. Hunter Douglas PowerView® motorization is available on Duette® shades, and we program it when we install.
Care is simple. Dust with a feather duster or vacuum on low with a brush attachment, and spot clean gently with a damp cloth. Follow the manufacturer’s care instructions for your fabric, and call us if a shade ever stops working the way it should.

Cellular shade questions
Answers to what Howell homeowners ask us most about honeycomb shades.
Will cellular shades help my sunny west-facing rooms in a Howell subdivision home?
They can help a great deal. The honeycomb pockets slow heat coming through the glass, and light filtering fabrics keep the room bright while cutting glare. In winter the same shades help hold heat in. How much you notice depends on the windows and how you use the shades.
Can you motorize cellular shades on the tall windows in my Howell great room?
Yes. Hunter Douglas Duette® shades can be motorized with PowerView®, so tall and hard-to-reach windows open and close by remote, app or schedule. We install and program them.
Are cellular shades worth it for energy savings?
Cellular shades are one of the most insulating window treatments because the honeycomb pockets trap air against the glass. How much you notice depends on your windows and how you use the shades, but most homeowners feel the difference at drafty or sunny windows.
What is the difference between single-cell and double-cell shades?
A double-cell shade has two layers of honeycomb pockets, which adds insulation and blocks a little more light. Single-cell shades are lighter and stack slightly smaller. We bring both so you can compare them.
How do I clean cellular shades?
Dust them regularly with a feather duster or a vacuum brush attachment on low. For small spots, dab gently with a damp cloth. Check the care instructions for your fabric before using anything stronger.
