How It Works
Why a honeycomb shape holds air still
The cross-section of a cellular shade is a row of closed honeycomb cells rather than a flat sheet of fabric. Each cell traps a pocket of air against the glass, and still air is a poor conductor of heat.
That pocket is what slows the chill you feel sitting beside a cold window in winter, and what reduces the heat radiating in on a hot afternoon, a genuine comfort difference on older or single-glazed glass.
Construction
Single cell vs double cell
Single cell
A slimmer profile that suits standard windows and tighter recesses, with a moderate insulating benefit.
Double cell
Two rows of cells for exposed windows, draughty older glass, or rooms with persistent heating or cooling issues.
Where Insulation Matters
Rooms that benefit most
Older homes
Single-glazed or draughty original windows lose the most heat, and gain the most from a cellular shade.
North-facing rooms
Rooms that feel cold regardless of the season often have glass, not heating, as the real problem.
Bedrooms needing both
Blackout cellular fabrics combine darkness with the insulating cell structure.
Above kitchen counters
The compact stack keeps more glass clear when raised, useful over sinks and counters.
A Practical Extra
Light at the top, privacy at the bottom
Top-down bottom-up operation lets the shade be lowered from the top of the window as well as raised from the bottom, so a street-facing bedroom can let daylight in above head height while the lower half stays private.
It's a small mechanical difference that solves a very common complaint about ground-floor and low-rise windows.
Energy & Comfort
What we will and won't promise
- Cellular shades reduce heat transfer at the glass, most noticeable on older or exposed windows
- We treat it as a comfort improvement, not a guaranteed reduction in your energy bill
- The benefit is greater on double cell than single cell fabrics
- Consistent use (raising and lowering with the day) matters as much as the fabric choice

Frequently asked questions
Frequently Asked Questions About Cellular Shades
Do cellular shades really help reduce energy costs?
Cellular shades help slow heat transfer through windows, which may improve indoor comfort and contribute to energy efficiency. Actual savings depend on your windows, climate, insulation, and usage. We do not guarantee a specific reduction in energy bills.
What is the difference between single-cell and double-cell shades?
Single-cell shades have one row of honeycomb pockets, while double-cell shades have two rows. Double-cell construction generally provides greater insulation but has a thicker profile.
What are top-down bottom-up cellular shades?
These shades can be lowered from the top or raised from the bottom. This allows you to bring daylight into a room while keeping the lower part of the window covered for privacy.
Do cellular shades reduce outside noise?
Their honeycomb structure may soften some outside sound, but the amount of sound reduction varies. They are not a substitute for dedicated soundproofing or window replacement.
Can cellular shades be motorized?
Yes. Motorized cellular shade systems are available with compatible hardware. Depending on the selected system, operation may be available through a remote, wall control, or app.
Are blackout cellular shades suitable for bedrooms?
Yes. Blackout cellular shades combine a room-darkening fabric or liner with the honeycomb construction. They are a useful option for bedrooms where both reduced daylight and improved window comfort are desired.
Do cellular shades fit small or narrow windows?
Yes. Cellular shades are available in different sizes and configurations. Their compact stack can make them suitable for windows where maintaining a clear view is important.
