It’s Summer Fun Time!
Summer is here, and it’s time to look forward to some fun in the sun and maybe even a summer get-away with the family!!! Yay! 
Summer is big here at Casa Vilora Interiors and No Naked Windows, it is our busiest time of year for window treatments! This is when homeowners give special thought to the very hot temperatures here in Houston, and figure ways they can save energy.
Any window treatment is better than naked windows when it comes to energy savings. Window treatments can reduce energy use in your home, and are less expensive than purchasing new, energy-efficient windows. In addition to saving energy, window treatments can be aesthetic additions to your home. Even if your windows are already energy efficient as in most newer homes these days, your home still benefits from additional layers of protection from the sun.
Here is some more informational from Energy.gov about the energy saving benefits of investing in window treatments, whether blinds, shutters, cellular shades, draperies or shades. Click here to read the article.
