3 Surprisingly Common Misconceptions About Motorized Blinds

By Window Treats

why choose motorized blindsAs any homeowner knows, the way light enters a room can dramatically change the way a space looks. Well-lit, bright areas create an atmosphere of energy, productivity, and excitement. In contrast, darker, moodier rooms create a sense of calm relaxation.

While some rooms in a home require one atmosphere or the other, some interior spaces require flexible lighting to meet a variety of needs. For these transitional rooms, motorized blinds make an elegant and logical choice. Motorized window blinds allow homeowners to change the light of their space with the simple touch of a button.

Though motorized window shades work well for nearly any home, some individuals hesitate before installing them due to misconceptions about their function and style. They think: why choose motorized blinds, when they come with so many downsides?

Once and for all, we’d like to clear up some misconceptions surrounding automated window blinds. Here are three myths about motorized window blinds you shouldn’t believe:

1. Motorized Blinds Are Hard to Maintain

Due to their technical nature, some individuals assume that motorized blinds require special upkeep. However, manufacturers specifically design these blinds to be easy to clean. With a damp cloth, you can remove dust and stains from the blinds with ease. Simply give them a gentle wipe-down every now and then, and you’re good to go!

2. Motorized Blinds Cost Way Too Much

While motorized blinds may be more expensive than traditional window treatments, they are also a long-term investment. In fact, typical shutters can last up to 20 years, but these window treatments may last even longer with proper maintenance. As a bonus, window treatments can better insulate your home by preventing heat from escaping through the glass of your window panes. Keep the motorized blinds closed on chillier days, and you might actually save money on your heating bills!

3. Motorized Blinds Aren’t Stylish

Finally, some people avoid buying motorized blinds because they’ve seen other automated blinds that are just plain ugly. However, today’s manufacturers produce a wide variety of styles that can pair well with different home architectures and interior designs. With a little online research, you might find a set of blinds that match your personal style perfectly!

Why Choose Motorized Blinds?

Because the myths simply aren’t true! Motorized blinds can be affordable, stylish, and convenient. To order your own set of automatic shades, contact Window Treats today.
