The Top 3 Reasons to Switch to Motorized Window Treatments

Window treatments are a crucial addition to any home, and one of the key decisions you’ll have to make as a homeowner is what kind of operating system you want to have. Here at Utah Blinds Gallery, we strongly believe that utilizing the cutting-edge technology offered by Hunter Douglas is the best way to make the most out of your window treatments. That’s why we’ve put together our list of the top three reasons we think you should switch to motorized window treatments.

Whether you’re interested in sheer shades, cellular shades, Roman shades, roller shades, wood blinds, or even shutters or custom drapery, there are endless window treatment options available with the option of motorization.

1. Convenience and Accessibility

With over 45 years of experience, our team at Utah Blinds Gallery has seen it all. Large, tall windows, hard-to-reach windows, uniquely shaped windows, as well as working with homeowners coming from all walks of life. No matter what kind of home you have, there’s no denying the convenience and accessibility that motorized window treatments provide.

With the innovations of PowerView® Automation, this operating system truly creates a seamless and stress-free user experience. With the touch of a button via the Pebble® remote, your smartphone via the PowerView® app, or even a voice command when paired with your favorite smart home device, you can control the opening and closing of your window treatments. This is particularly helpful for individuals with mobility limitations. Additionally, motorized treatments can be programmed to open and close on a schedule, allowing you to maintain your desired level of light and privacy without any effort. The days of reaching and straining are finally in the past.

2. Climate Control and Sustainability

Another reason to invest in motorized window treatments is the energy efficiency they provide. You’ll find over time that PowerView® Automation grants you a new level of climate control in your home that you may never have thought possible.

By automating the opening and closing of your shades or blinds, you can better control the amount of sunlight entering your home. This can help reduce your reliance on your HVAC system, which is ultimately going to save you money on utility costs.

During the summer months, you can program your shades to close during the hottest part of the day, reducing solar heat gain and keeping your home cooler. In the winter, you can do the opposite, allowing the sun to warm your home during the day and closing the shades at night to keep the cold out. Motorized window treatments not only help you maintain a comfortable indoor temperature but also contribute to a greener, more sustainable home. What’s better than saving energy and money at the same time?

3. Smart Home System Integration

Another reason to switch to PowerView® Automation is that this operating system can be seamlessly integrated into use with your other smart home devices. This means you can control your window treatments using voice commands, on your smartphone, as well as create custom automation routines. By integrating your motorized window treatments with other smart devices, such as thermostats, lighting systems, and security systems, you can create a truly cohesive smart home experience.

For example, you could set up an automation routine that lowers your shades and turns on your interior lights when the sun sets. Or you could have your window treatments open when your smart thermostat detects that your home needs some natural warmth. The possibilities for customization are virtually endless, allowing you to tailor your motorized window treatments to your unique needs and preferences.

Yet another benefit of integrating PowerView® Automation with your smart home system is that you can access your window treatments remotely, creating a safer environment for your home if you’re out of town or at work.
