3 Window Treatments To Remake Your Washington DC Laundry Room

June 27, 2016

When you’re looking for window treatments for your Washington DC home, the top priority probably isn’t your laundry room — but why not? A family of four washes, on average, 412 loads of laundry each year, 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 expect.

So, why not focus on your laundry room and make it a comfortable and attractive place to spend your time in? These three window treatments will 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 can give your laundry room a cozy, attractive, energy efficient makeover. If your utility bill has gotten more expensive over time, it could be your windows’ fault. Windows are one of the biggest causes for temperature variation in your home, especially in the laundry room with all of its large, working appliances.

Our Polywood shutters are a smart and stylish way to save money on your energy statements. They minimize heat transfer through your window by up to 45%. And controlling how much light streams into your room is as simple as adjusting a louver. Polywood shutters are built to last decades without cracking, chipping, warping, or diminishing in color and finish.

2. Cellular Shades

Cellular shades are a light, beautifully simple window treatment option for your laundry room windows. You can select from a selection of opacities ranging from sheer to opaque to let you choose how much light can come into the room. Pull them up to increase the light in the room as you’re sorting your clothes. Pull them down for extra privacy.

3. Faux Wood Blinds

If you need a low-cost, clean-lined window treatment to fit a smaller space, faux wood blinds are a popular choice. Faux wood blinds are more affordable than hardwood and look almost identical, but can handle the humidity and variations in temperature of your laundry room without warping or cracking.
