Understanding How LEVOLOR Custom Cellular Shades Help Insulate Your Home
Windows provide a beautiful view to the world outside your home. They also allow hot and cool air to enter or escape your home. A cellular shade complements the beauty of your home decor, while providing important benefits like reducing heat transfer and increasing insulation. LEVOLOR Custom Cellular shades aren’t just stylish – they help keep your home more comfortable. Here’s how:
- The fabric's honeycomb shape traps hot and cold air in cellular pockets reducing air flow into your home.
- The Double Cell option features two layers of cells between your room and the window, providing an additional insulation barrier.
- Our exclusive Energy Shield™ liner is a thin, clear layer inside the cells that can provide additional year-round insulation.
Factors to consider when selecting your LEVOLOR Custom Cellular Shades:
Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC)
- A shades' SHGC provides a number indicating the amount of heat allowed to transfer in your home from the sun.
R-Value
- A shades' R-value provides a number indicating a shades' insulation properties.
Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF)
- How well your shade protects from solar UV rays, which can fade furnishings, floors and artwork. UPF ratings range from 15 (good) to 50 (excellent).
LEVOLOR is a member of the Attachments Energy Rating Council (AERC), whose goal is to help consumers make informed decisions about purchasing window attachments to maximize energy savings. Search "AERC" in your Internet browser for more information.

LEVOLOR App
LEVOLOR’s Bluetooth® enabled app allows you to schedule your window coverings to adjust automatically on a timed schedule, when paired with the Premium 6-Channel Remote.
Our unique technology allows users to program a schedule on the app while they are within range of the window covering and remote, and it will still operate once they leave the home. However, the app can not be used to adjust the programmed schedule while away from the home. The device with the app must be within the range of the remote and window covering to change the schedule.
Premium Remote
Download the LEVOLOR App on your Apple and Android devices to walk through the pairing process. Use the App's scheduling function to program your window coverings to adjust automatically, while you're at home or away.

- Mailing Tube or Box
Measuring Instructions
- 1. Tape the paper to the wall, window or door frame. Stretch to remove folds/wrinkles. Cover the entire window.
- 2. For arch or half-arch height, measure from the sill to the beginning of the curved portion of the window on both sides. Write the measurement on the front of the template that faces the inside room. To cut the shape out, see below.
- 3. For the width, use a level to draw a line from one side of the template to the other side in a horizontal direction. Measure width of window in at least 2 places and write the width on the front of the template.
- 4. Write “FACE” OR “FRONT” on the template that faces the inside room. Also, write the PO number and customer name.
- 5. For octagon, hexagon, circle templates, write “TOP” at the top of the template so the orientation of the shape can be identified. Measure all sides to make sure they are even; write overall width and height on face of the template. To cut the shape out, see below.
- 6. Cut template out:
a) Inside Mount: carefully cut out the template along the penciled line.
b) Outside Mount: add the desired overlap to the penciled guideline and draw a new guideline. Cut template along this new guideline.

Cellular Hardware Color Coordination Guide
Coordinating hardware colors are pre-selected based on fabric color. The color samples below represent headrail, bottom rail, end cap, and tassel colors
The fabric index charts match each fabric to a hardware component based on color coordination.
Note: The actual color of the hardware may vary from the samples in the color coordination guide
Color lot variations may occur with fabric and/or hardware due to the process of color application.
For the best color match, order all shades for a room at the same time. Pattern availability and color lot match between orders cannot be assured.
Cleaning and Care
All LEVOLOR Cellular Shades are made of 100% polyester and with multiple cleaning options, these easy to care for shades will maintain their beautiful appearance for years to come.
Note: Improper cleaning may void warranty
Dusting - Use a feather duster for regular cleaning.
Vacuuming - Use a low suction vacuum with a brush-type cleaner attachment; stroke lightly over the shade to clean.
Forced Air - Blow away dirt and debris using clean compressed air.
Spot-Cleaning/Stain Removal at Home - Use warm water and a mild soap, like Woolite® or Scotchgard®, if needed.
Professional Injection/Extraction Cleaning - Call local on-site blind/shade cleaner that injects a cleaning solution into the fabric and extracts the dirty solution at the same time. The service is typically performed at home so you do not need to remove your window treatments.
