Late Spring Storm
We had a late spring snowstorm here in Castle Rock. It took me two hours to get to work today and I live 16 miles away from the office. It is expected to snow another 10-12 inches by this afternoon and possible up to two foot by tomorrow. We might be leaving early here today and possibly be closed saturday. I’ll keep you posted if we do this.

Shutter Comparisons for Woodwinds Composite Shutters vs. Real Wood Shutters.
Woodwinds™ SuperNatural™ Shutters reach above and often beyond most composite shutters expectations. Not only does the Woodwinds astonishing durability set a new industry standard, the wood grain process looks really, just like real wood. It’s very hard to tell the difference even when touching the louvers. Below is a side by side comparison that Comfortex gave us verses real wood. You can find this AMERICAN made product at: Composite Shutters. It is a little more expensive than some of the other composite shutters on the market but, they are made here in the USA, ship in two weeks, and have a lifetime warranty. They are some of the best we have seen, have been tempted to sell cheaper products but the quality and the “no headaches” with Comfortex makes this a suburb buy. They are on sale for Jan and Feb.
ComforTrack Plus™ by Comfortex
We just added the new ComforTrack Plus™ side track system by Comfortex to our Symphony cellular shade (honeycomb) line. This is the ultimate in energy savings and blocks out all the light. This is an excellent option for media rooms where no light is a must. Go to Symphony Cellular Shades by Comfortex to check this out. See the video or scroll to the bottom of the page to see pictures.
Cordless Honeycomb (cellular) Shades
We want to inform you that for the cordless cell shades (honeycomb shades), the head rails are WHITE. They are not color coordinated with the fabric. That’s just the way they are made. The factory will put a metal strip in the head rail which is color coordinated. For the Hunter Douglas™ name brand, they do it slightly different. They will wrap the head rail in fabric. It looks much nicer but the cost can be significant.
New Cordless Roman Shades
Comfortex™ just came out with a new cordless option for the Serenade™ Roman Shades. You lift the blind by a handle. It is perfect for hard to reach areas and is a safe alternative if you have young children. Check it out today. Pricing is reasonable and it looks great.

Two new Comfortex color lines
We just added two new color lines in the Comfortex “sunscreens”. First is the Silver Screens II. Five new colors with that cool aluminum backing that gives this sunscreen the best reflective value on the market. The second group is called the Designer Screens in the Envisions collection. The Designer Screens are made of 100% polyester and have some of the nicest see-through fabrics out there. Another Comfortex first. Both lines are a 5% openness factor which is the most popular for the sunscreens.
Shangri-La sheer horizontals by Comfortex

This is an article given to us by Comfortex™. The soft touch of a translucent (see through) sheer provides the Shangri La™ 2″ and 3″ vaned sheer horizontal blinds with a beautiful radiance. The Shangri-La™ vanes are available in a room darkening or light filtering fabric and adjusts for different light control options. The Shangri-La™ is the only horizontal sheer where the vanes may be raised in the opened position which is an ecellent feature the other name brand sheers do not provide. You can match the exact same fabric in the Stardust™ 3 1/2″ vertical vanes so you can cordinate with your sliding glass doors. Click here for Shangri-La and Stardust.
Odysee Insulating Blinds by Comfortex
The new Odysee ™ Insulating blinds by Comfortex is a unique new cellular shade. It goes up and down and has the same energy efficiency as a normal cell shde but with a pull of the cord, the cells collapse to give a one inch view between the cells! To see the new Odysee, click here.
Seeing is believing
I got this information from a Comfortex flier but unfortunately I couldn’t find a digital photo of this so I scanned it. Still gets the point across I guess. All information comes from the flier. Even houses which appear to be well insulated may not be as energy efficient as one may think. This house was photographed during the winter using thermal photography, a process which exposes higher temperature zones as indicated by the color transitions. You will notice that the areas around the windows are particularly “hot”, proving that a significant amount of interior heat is escaping from these portions of the house.
The Insulator

This info comes from Comfortex ™. Are you serious about saving energy? You can with Symphony ™ Blackout Cellular Shades. 15 popular colors to choose from. Made of a double, non woven polyester honeycomb fabric with integrated foil technology. This product has a draft-blocking structure which makes rooms more comfortable all year long, moderating winter chills as well as the relentless summer heat. Total blackout material which is great for bedrooms, nurseries and media rooms. A limited lifetime warranty comes with the Symphony ™ blackout cells. Options available include: cordless, top down-bottom up, continuous cord loop. Great product for the price. Check out the video here for more information.

Top Down, Bottom Up Cordless
This is a cool product that Comfortex offers. It is excellent for child safety and works great. Click here to get more details on this. This information comes directly from Comfortex. The chordless shade makes raising and lowering of the blinds easier than ever. Push up to raise and pull down to lower. Both moving rails will stay right where you put them. The hidden control system enables shades to be easily raised and lowered with the touch of a finger. The only visible cords are the ones that hold the middle rail in place. Enjoy your windows without the distraction of operational cords, especially on large windows with multiple shades. The Chordless feature is a great solution for bedrooms and bathrooms-even media rooms-where light control and privacy are required. A color coordinated strip is inserted into the head rail to complement the fabric and hardware. A limited lifetime warranty serves as a commitment to your satisfaction.

Envision Roller Shades by Comfortex
We just received the new Comfortex Envision roller shade book. It has a huge selection of new style roller shades. We will post this new product online as soon as we get sampling. The only thing that seems to remain the same verses the old Serenade book is the SilverScreens, Polynesian Sands, South Pacific, Suede Impressions, and some of the Phifer Sunscreens. We will keep you up to date once the samples arrive and promptly have a sale to kick off this new product line. The specs seem to be much greater than the old Serenade book.
Comfortex Top Down Bottom Up Cordless

Comfortex, a leading manufacturer in the window covering industry, just introduced its new cordless top down, bottom up cellular (honeycomb) shades. If you can reach the top of the window, you will have a handle instead of that long cord to drop the blind down from the top. You also have another handle at the bottom so you can raise and lower the shade like normal. It is a really cool feature and much more child friendly and hassle free because you no longer have the cords to deal with. They also just came out with a new roller shade line called the Envision Roller Shades. This will replace the Serenade book. There are supposed to be newer fabrics and the specs on the width are much wider than before. We are waiting on sampling before we place this online. Should be in the next week or two.
