I've just started looking at blinds and with the limited research I've done it seems that there is a "honeycomb" blind that is supposed to be a good insulator. I haven't looked at it in real life yet but am wondering if it would be a bit of a dust catcher . I have several rooms with metal venetian blinds in them which don't look too bad but they are a nightmare to clean and from what I've been reading they are poor insulators. I would love to see your luxaflex blind idea Re: Window Insulation 10May 01, 2008 12:14 am I think your spot on ... they are a honey comb blind so we are probably talking the same thing.
