If you have skylights in your home, you know they can be both a blessing and a curse. It’s great to have the extra natural light skylights provide. Unfortunately, though, those UV rays can be damaging to your interior. Energy efficiency can also suffer when skylights let in too much outside air. Skylight shades can help you harness the light — letting it in when you want it, and blocking it when you don’t. As your local Hunter Douglas Gallery dealer in the Washington DC area, we have a variety of shades available to fit any skylight.
