Your ShadingProblems Solved
The Main Story
You have a lot of shades or blinds, so youdont bother adjusting many of them.
Your current automated window treatments
are noisy.
Youd like to press one button that lowers
shades, dims lights, and starts an audio-
visual system.
Problem
Our automated window treatments providetouch of a button control via keypads,
wireless remotes, and mobile devices, so you
can adjust several window treatments at one
time with a single button press.
Our automated window treatments utilize a
quiet, low-voltage drive, so movement
isnt disruptive.
You can integrate our automated window
treatments with third-party control systems for
one button control that will lower shades,
dim lights, and start a movie.

4 The Main Story
Due to the architecture in the room, youcant run wires for automated shades.
Our cellular shades are wire-free, so theyre
ideal for challenging situations. Theyre also a
great design solution for applications where
running wire would be cumbersome, such as
with French doors.
Your Venetian blinds arent very versatile.
The stackback from traditional drapery
obstructs your view.
You frequently need to replace the battery
in your shade.
Our Venetian blinds provide independent
control of blind height and slat angle.
Our blinds also feature independent tilt and lift
control, and ensure that the tilt position between
adjacent blinds remains within 1/16th of an inch.
Our Kirb vertical drapery system lifts fabric
up (instead of opening and closing from side to
side) and completely out of the way, eliminating
stack back.
Our new cellular shades have a 3-year battery
lifemuch longer than other battery-powered
shades currently available.

When it comes to preventing heat loss,these shades can make a huge impact.
You already know that shades are an effortless
way to conserve energy. Simply lowering them in
the summer prevents the suns harsh rays from
heating up a room (and causing air conditioning
to work overtime), while raising them in the
winter captures heat from those rays.
But now there are new shades in town
shades that provide even greater energy
savingsso much more, in fact, that they can
double the R value of a triple-pane window.
The game-changer?
Lutron cellular shades.

These wire-free, battery powered shades have
air pockets that trap heat, providing superior
insulation. Cellular shades come in a variety
of styles, and as you can see from the chart
above, deliver varying R values depending on
the style. (R values are a measure of thermal
resistance; the larger the R value, the more
effective the product.)
Adding a room-darkening, single-cell shadeto a single-pane window, for example, can
increase that windows R value more than
five timesgiving it a better R value than a
shade-less, double-pane, low-e argon window.
And that R value is also better than a triple-
pane, low-e window without any shades at all.
(Obviously, you need to lower cellular shades
in order to capitalize on their energy-saving
benefits.)
