Triangles

Question

We have a vaulted ceiling with four triangular windows that look very similar to the windows pictured in the siloutte window covering photo (the top four in the photo of that house). Our windows are in that exact configuration.

We are looking for a product that will help with energy efficiency as we receive no sun through them during cold Northern Minnesota winters and direct sunlight through them during the summer months.

Answer

Cellular shades are an energy efficient solution for any window, especially in a case where such a big part of the wall is window.

You would have to do one big triangular shade for all windows together. You would use a bottom top-down cellular shade which opens by compressing and stacking towards the bottom. You would then need one ledge below the windows where the shade can be stacked onto.

When the shades are closed you would get privacy and energy efficiency, but when they are open you can have sunlight and full view.

These cellular shades are made from Hunter Douglas fabrics which are of high quality and are very energy efficient. For the best energy efficiency get it with the Hunter Douglas Architella fabrics.
