The Benefits of Plantation Shutters: Style, Functionality, and Energy Efficiency
As a window treatment solution, plantation shutters have stood the test of time being the preferred choice for homeowners, interior designers, and home remodeling contractors. They are stylish, functional, energy efficient, and easy to maintain, making plantation shutters a smart investment. They add an aesthetic appeal to home as opposed to drapes which bring a "drab" and "dark" feeling to the interior of your home, and blinds often break and warp very easily. This is why homeowners turn to plantation shutters than other window treatment options.
Benefits of Plantation Shutters
Beautiful Style
In the window treatment industry, plantation shutters are one of the most elegant treatments available. With their timeless look, they have the ability to complement any style of home, from traditional to modern. Every home is different, with plantation shutters, there are a variety of materials to meet your design preferences (we manufacture plantation shutters with basswood), and a range of colors, stains, and finishes so you can match the interior of your home!
Functionality
Plantation shutters aren't just a pretty face, they are highly functional in homes as well! These window treatments provide excellent light control, giving you the ability to adjust the amount of sunlight that enters your home. Another great factor is they offer supreme privacy, you can tilt the louvers to control the view in to your home. Because they are made of solid wood, they are more durable than other window treatments such as blinds or curtains. When closed during the summer months, they will keep the interior of your home nice and cool.
Energy Efficiency
Homeowners love plantation shutters because they can also help you save money on your energy bills because they provide an extra layer of insulation on your windows. They can keep your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, this means you won't have to rely on your home's heating or cooling system as much, resuling in significant cost savings. The shutters we manufacture are made from real basswood, making them an environmentally conscious choice.
Easy to Maintain
The best part is, plantation shutters are easy to maintain! They require very little cleaning, you simply wipe them down with a damp cloth! They don't collect dust and dirt like other window treatments such as drapes, curtains, or blinds, making them the perfect choice for people with allergies or asthma, or just want something easy to maintain.
