Reduce Energy Usage with Motorized Window Shades 

A recent study from the Illinois Institute of Technology has discovered that automated window blinds can reduce building energy consumption by 25 percent. The study at Willis Tower in Chicago found that simple solutions like motorized window shades can vastly improve a building’s energy efficiency. 

While the study was conducted in a commercial building, smart blinds can also reduce utility costs at home. Here’s how homeowners in St. Louis County, MO, can save energy with motorized blinds.
