4 Reasons Why Motorized Shades Are a Great Investment
Convenience is Just the Start
To say that Nevada is a sunny place is an understatement. While letting in natural light into your homes is a boon to well-being and makes your home more aesthetically pleasing, too much of a good thing sometimes isn’t all good.
With the high heat of the desert summer, window coverings are essential to filter sunlight and limit heat gain so HVAC systems don’t have to work as hard to cool your home. But we don’t want to live in caves either. What’s the solution? Motorized shades are the ideal way to manage natural light and both harness and limit the power of the sun. And they also have additional advantages you might not have thought about too. Read below to see how motorized shades can benefit your Las Vegas home in four key ways.

The Luxury of Convenience
Shades and window treatments for the larger windows in today’s homes can be difficult to control manually. Cords and other controls can get tangled or be heavy, sometimes breaking with heavy use. Banish cords, chains, and pulls and replace them with motorized shading that moves at the touch of a button or even a voice command. Let the light into all windows in a room or the whole house with one touch. When integrated with a home automation system, your powered shades and window treatments can coordinate with your lighting and climate control for even greater comfort and control of your environment.
Energy Savings
Save money on air conditioning bills with intelligent control of your motorized shades. Put your shades on an automated schedule to lower at the peak sun times of day to minimize glare and heat gain. Alternatively, use heat and UV sensors to trigger selective lowering of shades where too much sun is streaming in. With your home automation system, you can intelligently program scenes where your lights, shades, and climate control work in concert to take advantage of light but also use your air conditioning in a smarter way.
Privacy and Security
Window treatments have always served as a measure of privacy. But you don't have to block all light when you want privacy. With many levels of opacity available in fabrics, you can filter natural light and achieve privacy without darkening your interiors or resorting to more artificial light. For security, automated window treatment can automatically lower or close when you are away or at bedtime to keep out prying eyes. When integrated with smart home automation, you can even simulate that you are home by opening and closing window treatments coordinated with lights, making your home a less attractive target for intrusion.
Limitless Style
Many think that to get the convenience of motorization they might have to compromise on style. Nothing could be further from the truth. There is a vast range of choice in styles, colors, and materials. From motorized tiltable blinds to drapery tracks, there is a fashionable style for every window, with significant customization options for different window shapes and sizes. It’s never been easier to choose motorized window treatments that blend with and enhance any interior décor.
