Research conducted by MechoShade and other independent studies have confirmed that standard window glazings do NOT adequately protect the building occupants from heat gain and solar glare, nor does it maximize the building envelope's energy savings. You need to select a window covering to ensure the comfort of the occupants and maximum energy efficiency of the building.

Granted, there are various types of window treatments for you to choose from. But which type of window covering should you work with? MechoShade's WHY SHADES presentation highlights important points and reasons for why choosing roller shades for your project is the best choice you can make. Unlike other window coverings, MechoShades work with the dynamics of the sun and various types of window glazing to filter the radiant component of sunlight out, while allowing maximum comfort, lower HVAC consumption and A VIEW TO THE OUTSIDE. When compared with the other options, it's easy to see why MechoShades are “The Architect's Choice” .
