1 | Remote Control Options
Raise, lower, and tilt your shades using remote control radio frequency. When you’re relaxing on the sofa or busy in another room, the last thing you want to do is get up to adjust your blinds. With the push of a button, there is no more meddling with cords or manually adjusting each shade to your favored position. Have furniture or decor that makes your window treatments hard to reach? Now, there is no more stretching or contorting to reach the cords the next time you want to adjust your blinds. Simply control your motorized blinds with the ease of a remote wherever and whenever you like.
2 | Safer for children and pets
A cordless design offers the greatest safety for children and pets. A benefit of motorized shades is that the design itself removes the need for cords and dramatically reduces the potential for child and pet safety hazards in your home. Now you can rest easy as you say goodbye to cords that pose a strangulation hazard when children become entangled in them.
Know your family pet will also be safer while unattended. Similar to young children, playful pets are also at risk of injury from corded window blinds. Bring more significant peace of mind to your home when you upgrade the safety of your shades and blinds during your next home project.
3 | Boosts home’s energy efficiency
Improving your energy consumption with efficient insulation and light control is another added benefit of motorized window treatments. You can set your blinds to open and close during specific times during the day to maximize lighting efficiency, which also removes the hassle of manual adjustments. For example, you can save more money on your utility bills when you can take advantage of natural lighting on a sunny day during the Winter months. What’s more exciting is that our Color Lux Simplicity Motors are fully rechargeable, with a single charge lasting up to one full year. And, you can recharge the batteries up to 500 times. Meaning the benefits of motorized window treatments not only help you lower your energy bills, but they even provide you with less hassle to live more green.
Similarly, our Simplicity Solar Panels offer great energy efficiency capabilities, allowing you to harness the power of the sun. With Simplicity Solar Panels, harness environmentally friendly renewable energy throughout all days, even cloudy ones, with low light charging.
4 | UV Protection
Enjoy your furniture and decor for years to come when you keep out damaging UVA/UVB rays from the sun. Direct sun exposure can cause discoloration, fading, and irreversible damage to furniture in your home. You can protect your furniture and decor from fading and discoloration with the benefits of motorized blinds and shades. By investing in window treatments that block out harmful rays, you assure you’ll appreciate home decor long term. Additionally, you can set your motorized shades to scheduled times that allow you to shield your furniture while not having to remember to shut the blinds yourself.
5 | Improve Home Security
Deter unwanted visitors while on vacation or away from home. With programmable automation settings, you can easily add a layer of security when on the go. Just program your motorized blinds or shades to operate at specific times to make it seem like your home is occupied, even when you’re at work or out of the house. And while you need to be within Bluetooth range to use the Color Lux Mobile App, as long as you can connect to WiFi, you can use the NEO Smart control WiFi Hub and app (an optional feature) to communicate with your home’s shades from any location around the world. The home benefits of motorized window treatments alone make investing in your home’s security a decision you can make with ease.
6 | Wake up relaxed
For a considerable amount of people, alarm clocks have been replaced by cell phones. Once motorization is added to your windows, you’ll have the option to get a friendly wake-up call from natural lighting. Adjust your shades to gently wake you each morning by letting in the sunlight when it’s time to get up. Gone are the days when you woke up startled and annoyed by a loud alarm clock.
7 | Increase Home Value
The housing market today is more competitive than ever. Make your home stand out on the market with motorized blinds. Since most window treatments are attached directly to the home, buyers expect that they’ll be included in their purchase. Today, the benefits of motorized shades and blinds are incredibly desirable and in high demand by prospective home buyers for ease of use, the capability to sync with smart-home devices, and green features that boost energy efficiency. Easily get a return on your investment when you upgrade to motorized blinds before putting your house on the market.
