Skylight windows invite gorgeous natural light into your home. But, there are times of day–and seasons of the year–where the direct rays coming into Winnipeg homes is not welcome. Suddenly, that beautiful light is causing squinting headaches, heat exhaustion and damaged interiors.
When you cover skylight windows with the right window coverings, you’ll experience light when and if you want it. You’ll maintain comfort, while adding a layer of protection against harsh UV rays.
Hunter Douglas Doulite Duettes, which are a type of honeycomb shade, are available for skylights. They offer the options of a room darkening or light filtering fabric for the bottom shade and a sheer shade on the top to keep the damaging effects of UV rays to a minimum. It’s two shades in one!
Make adjustments simple with a manual crank, or even better, smart shades. The innovation of automated shades allows you to make adjustments with a tap on your phone or a voice command. Set schedules, save favorites, or sync the movement with your smart home system. It’s as easy as that.
SkyLift skylight system, available on Duette® and Applause® Honeycomb Shades, is specifically suited for skylights. Choose PowerView® Automation for these shades, or manual operation with a hand crank or telescoping pole for hard-to-reach windows. Either way, the SkyLift system is perfect for very large, overhead windows. Meet with a Superblinds expert to learn more.
