Insulate Your Windows from Heat and Sound

Because of their honeycomb design, cellular shades can insulate your windows not only from heat and cold but also from outside noise. Duette^® Honeycomb Shades, for example, absorb up to 70% of sound energy, creating a quieter, more tranquil room.

Other Noise Reducing Window Shades

If you live on a highly traveled road or in a busy city, you might consider Roman shades for dampening sound. In addition to bringing a traditional look to your home, their heavier fabric adds a sound absorbing layer. You’ll find Roman shades in many sumptuous fabrics, colors and opacities, for a style that suits any room in your home.  

For Romans with a twist, look to Vignette^® Modern Roman Shades. Choose from soft and full or crisp and flat fold styles, in luxurious sheer, light-filtering and room-darkening opacities.

Combining Window Treatments for Added Noise Cancelling

If your goal is to reduce outside sounds as much as possible, consider combining window treatments by pairing side panels or drapery over blinds or shades. Not only does layering products provide greater sound absorption—it also adds depth and dimension to the window.
