Treat Your Window Treatments to PowerView® Automation
If you have a window above a kitchen sink, a room where you adjust the shades several times a day, or any window covering in a spot that's genuinely hard to reach, motorized window treatments are worth considering. Hunter Douglas Automation is a seemingly small way that homeowners simplify their lives in a big way.
At Packard Paint Decorating Centers, we specialize in Hunter Douglas automation and window treatments across our three locations in Hermitage, Greenville, and New Castle, PA. Which is why our team is here to share what PowerView® Automation actually does and why it's worth the investment for your home.
What Is Hunter Douglas PowerView® Automation?
Hunter Douglas PowerView® Automation is a motorized control system compatible with most of the brand’s window treatments. You can operate it from the PowerView® App on your phone, a sleek Pebble® Remote, or through simple voice commands via popular smart home systems.
The system supports fully programmable schedules, so your shades can open in the morning and close in the afternoon to beat the heat—no manual input required. Different rooms can run on special schedules based on how your household uses them.
What Window Treatments Are Compatible With PowerView® Automation?
PowerView® Automation works with many Hunter Douglas blinds and shades, so the choice comes down to the room, the window, and the kind of control you want:
Pirouette® Sheer Shades use fabric vanes to soften and filter incoming light. With PowerView® Automation, you can adjust the vanes from the app or remote, which is helpful when you want to change the amount of light without walking from window to window.
Duette® Cellular Shades are worth adding to spaces that get especially hot or cold. Their honeycomb-inspired construction helps insulate the glass, and a schedule closes the shades during the afternoon's brightest hours, even when no one’s home.
Vignette® Roman Shades bring a more traditional look to the window. The shades stack neatly when raised. They work well in bedrooms, dining rooms, and living rooms where you want the window treatment to feel like part of the design style.
Designer Roller Shades keep the look simple and are available in fabrics ranging from sheer to room-darkening. They’re a practical choice for rooms with multiple windows, since PowerView® Automation lets you operate the shades together rather than adjusting each one by hand.
Parkland® Wood Blinds: Bring gorgeous visual warmth to a space with genuine wood and a range of rich paint and stain colors. Enjoy the luxury of these blinds with automated control to balance light and privacy throughout the day.
Aria™ Soft Blinds: These enchanting fabric blinds, which are lightweight and translucent, are a first of their kind in window treatment design. They fit those extra-large windows and let you enjoy your view without even lifting the blinds.
Why Motorized Window Treatments Make Sense for Western PA Homes
Motorized window treatments remove exposed cords from your home, which matters in households with young children. Shades that close on a schedule during peak afternoon hours reduce solar heat gain—you'll notice it on your energy bill over the course of a summer.
Homes throughout Hermitage, Greenville, and New Castle, PA, often have windows that are stunning but genuinely inconvenient to reach and operate by hand. A window above a kitchen sink or across a wall of grouped windows in a living room is a perfect example. Hunter Douglas automation makes that daily friction disappear.
