Installing Duette Hunter Douglas Shades in Westchester County
Stepping into a room that feels comfortable, no matter the season, is both a luxury and a money saver. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, up to 30 percent of a home’s heating and cooling escapes through windows. Duette® shades tackle that problem head‑on.
For this sun-drenched home in Chappaqua, we designed and installed custom Duette shades across 10 windows in the living room. The homeowner wanted full light and views during the day, but cozy privacy at night. We paired Hunter Douglas’s light‑filtering “Elan” fabric with a top‑down/bottom‑up operation.
Duette’s unique cell‑within‑a‑cell construction traps air, boosting R‑value and softening acoustics in the kitchen. We measured each jamb, factory‑notched the headrails around the mouldings, and programmed travel limits so the shades stack evenly—no uneven hems, no tangled cords.
Beauty shouldn’t leak comfort. If you’re in Westchester or NYC and want window treatments that work as hard as they look, give us a call. We’ll handle every detail from measurement to motorization—start to flawless finish.
