Question 1

What is the difference between single cell and double cell honeycomb shades?

Accepted Answer

Single cell honeycomb shades have one layer of cells and provide good insulation. Double cell shades have two layers of cells and offer significantly better insulation — ideal for Idaho's cold winters and hot summers. We carry both at Boise Blinds.

Question 2

How energy efficient are honeycomb shades?

Accepted Answer

Up to 50% of a home's heating and cooling energy can be lost through windows. Honeycomb shades trap air in distinct insulating pockets, significantly reducing energy loss. Many Boise homeowners see noticeable drops in their energy bills after installation.

Question 3

Do you carry cordless honeycomb shades?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All of our honeycomb shades are available in cordless lift, which is safer for homes with children and pets, and gives a cleaner look.

Question 4

What is top-down bottom-up and do you carry it?

Accepted Answer

Top-down bottom-up allows you to lower the shade from the top or raise it from the bottom independently. This lets in natural light from above while maintaining privacy at eye level — very popular in Boise homes. Yes, we carry this option.

Question 5

Are honeycomb shades the same as cellular shades?

Accepted Answer

Yes — honeycomb shades and cellular shades are the same product. The names are used interchangeably. 'Cellular' refers to the cell-shaped pockets in the fabric, while 'honeycomb' describes the hexagonal shape of those cells when viewed from the side.

Question 6

Are cellular shades good for Idaho homes?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Cellular shades are one of the best window treatments for Idaho's climate. The insulating air pockets help keep homes warm during cold Boise winters and cool during hot summers. Many of our Treasure Valley customers report noticeable energy savings after installation.
