3 Window Treatments To Remake Your Boise Laundry Room

June 27, 2016

When it’s time to choose new window treatments for your Boise home, the laundry room probably isn’t first on your priority list — but maybe it should be. A family of four washes an average of 412 loads of laundry annually, which translates to hours spent in the laundry room. Between sorting, washing, drying, folding, and ironing, your laundry room has more foot traffic than you’d suspect.

So, why not make it a comfortable and attractive place to spend your time in? These three window treatments can remake your laundry room into a space you want to spend time in instead of a room you avoid.

1. Polywood Shutters

Polywood® plantation shutters give your laundry room a modern, energy efficient facelift. If your utility bill has gotten more expensive over time, it could be your windows’ fault. Windows are one of the main reasons for energy loss in your home. This is especially true in the laundry room with all of its large, working appliances.

Our Polywood shutters help you lower your energy statements since they reduce up to 45% of heat transfer through your window. Controlling how much light comes into your room is as easy as adjusting a louver. These durable plantation-style shutters can withstand years of use without warping, cracking, chipping, or fading.

2. Cellular Shades

Cellular shades are a lighter window treatment option for your laundry room windows. You can select from a range of opacities from sheer to opaque to let you choose how much light can come into the room. Keep them in the retracted position to bring natural light in as you’re folding your clothes. Pull them down if you’d like more privacy.

3. Faux Wood Blinds

If you’re searching for a low-cost, clean-lined window treatment to fit a small area, faux wood blinds are a strong option. Faux wood blinds are a more affordable option than hardwood and are nearly the same in appearance, but are able to withstand the fluctuating temperatures and humidity of your laundry room without warping or cracking.
