Discover the Benefits of Automated Window Coverings

According to a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) study, 75% of home window coverings remain in the same position. That’s a huge portion of homes that do not take advantage of the sun’s warmth or the UV protection that shades provide. 

Why?

It starts in the morning when we wake up and open our window coverings to greet the day. Then, either the day grows cold or the sun beats down, and we close our shades to keep the heat in or protect our homes. And there they remain. 

Who has time to adjust every window covering as the sun arcs across the sky? That’s where motorized shades come in. In fact, the DOE recommends them. 

At AMT Integration, we partner with Lutron, the global leader in lighting control, to provide our clients with best-in-class automated window shades. Let’s explore just what these window coverings offer homeowners and designers.
