The same light filtering or blackout colors can be used to match skylights and regular windows.
Our Double Honeycomb Insulated Cellular Shades can also be made into insulating skylight shades that glide in retainer tracks to stay in place. These insulated skylight shades provide thermal and draft protection. By acting as a thermal barrier, the cellular shade air pockets trap cool air inside reducing unwanted heat gain in summer. They also act as a barrier against cold air flow in winter, locking warm air inside. Available in the same light filtering and blackout options as our regular cellular shades, they are for inside frame mounts only. The cellular insulated blackout shades provide the maximum insulation values.
