Windows are often the biggest cause of energy loss in the home

Energy Efficiency

The ideal harmony between elegance and practicality is crucial in home décor. We are happy to provide plantation shutters at Shutters of Elegance that not only improve the aesthetics of your home but also offer outstanding energy efficiency. In this post, we'll examine the advantages of plantation shutters and how they help people live more sustainably and save money on energy.

Insulation
Insulation is one of the main ways that plantation shutters improve energy efficiency. Our shutters' movable slats (or louvres) let you regulate the amount of heat and light that enters your home. The shutters can be closed to retain the heat inside during the cooler months, lowering your heating expenses. On the other hand, in the summer they can be set to block out the sun, keeping your house cooler and reducing the need for air conditioning.

* In technical terms, Shutters reduce your window's U-Value; a measure of thermal transmittance (the lower the value, the better). Compared to a single-glazed window, it has been calculated that installing wooden Shutters would reduce heat loss by a whopping 64%!

Managing natural lighting
The flexibility of plantation shutters to manage natural light is yet another fantastic benefit. You have the freedom to let in as much or as little sunlight as you like thanks to the movable slats. By doing this, you may lessen the need for artificial lighting during the day, minimise your use of power, and lower your carbon footprint.

Customisation
We at Shutters of Elegance recognise the individuality of each home. To ensure a precise fit for the best insulation and energy efficiency, we provide custom-made plantation shutters to fit any window size and shape. Our shutters can be customised to match your unique requirements and tastes, offering the perfect harmony of design and usability.

Durability and low upkeep
Our plantation shutters are constructed to last since they are composed of materials of the highest calibre. They are a low-maintenance choice that will endure the test of time because to its durable construction and simple-to-clean design. You may save money in the long term by investing in durable window treatments like our Shutters because you won't need to replace them frequently like other window coverings!
