Premium Blinds Made to Measure

Luxaflex Duette Blinds

What Features Make Luxaflex Duette Blinds Unique?

When it comes to window treatments, Luxaflex Duette blinds offer a game-changing solution. Homeowners in Bathurst, Orange, and across NSW love these blinds. At Blinds by Design, we’ve seen the impact they can have, transforming homes while providing real benefits.

The Revolutionary Honeycomb Design

The standout feature of Luxaflex Duette blinds is their clever honeycomb design. It creates pockets of air between layers of fabric. This traps air inside the cells, creating a barrier that keeps your home cozy.

The honeycomb structure comes in different cell sizes. This lets you pick the perfect fit for your specific needs. The bigger the cells, the better they insulate. Studies have shown that honeycomb blinds can cut heat loss through windows by up to 40% in winter.

Duette Architella: The Honeycomb-Within-a-Honeycomb Innovation

The Duette range from Luxaflex really stands out, thanks to its Architella system. This innovative design takes insulation to new heights. It features a honeycomb-within-a-honeycomb structure that creates three distinct air pockets.

The Architella design offers energy efficiency, beating out standard window coverings. In fact, research shows it can cut heating costs. This makes it the best energy-efficient window covering in Australia, leading to big savings on your bills.

Versatile Light Control and Privacy Options

Duette blinds give you great flexibility with light control. Their range comes with fabrics in different opacity levels:

  • Light, airy fabrics for softening sunlight and keeping things private
  • Options with some give, for a balance between light and control
  • Heavy-duty fabrics for total privacy and shutting out the light

The Top-Down/Bottom-Up feature lets you position the blind at any point on the window. This means you can block off the lower part of your window for privacy. It’s especially great for windows that face the street.

Advanced Room Darkening with LightLock Technology

The LightLock system is a game-changer in room-darkening technology. It’s got U-shaped side channels with tiny ridges that bounce off incoming light. It’s ideal for anywhere you want complete darkness.

PowerView Automation and Smart Home Integration

Modern duette blinds can be equipped with PowerView automation. This wireless motorisation system allows you to:

  • Remotely control your blinds from anywhere using your smartphone app
  • Create custom schedules for blinds to open and close automatically
  • Use voice commands with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, or Apple HomeKit
  • Connect to your smart home system for smooth automation

The motorised system is really handy for windows that are tricky to get to.

Child-Safe Operating Systems

Safety is top priority, and Duette blinds really deliver on this front. Their LiteRise cordless system gets rid of cords completely. It’s simple to use – just push and pull to move the blind. The SmartCord system pulls the cord back in when you’re not using it. This keeps everything looking organised and tidy.

Superior Fabric Quality and Durability

Duette blinds are made with fabrics that resist static and dust. They also have a protective coating that helps them look and work great for years to come. The reinforced pleated construction keeps the blinds looking their best. This means that duette blinds will continue to pay for themselves long after the initial purchase.

Energy Efficiency Statistics

The energy efficiency of Duette blinds is backed by impressive statistics:

  • Nearly a third of heat escapes through windows with no coverings.
  • Honeycomb blinds can cut your summer cooling energy bill by about 12.5%.
  • Using Architella blinds can bring down your heating bill by as much as 43% in winter.
  • Proper installation can lower your air conditioning load by around 32%.

These figures show why duette blinds are seen as the most energy-efficient window covering out there.
