Windows with blinds inside are windows that have blinds encased between two panes of glass. Advantages of windows with blinds inside include lack of dust and allergen accumulation, easy operation, energy efficiency and increased safety for children and pets.
Several manufacturers produce windows with blinds inside, such as Pella and Western Reflections. A controller allows the user to raise and lower the blinds and adjust the level of light infiltration and privacy. Windows with blinds inside come in a variety of styles, and some are available with low-emissivity (or low-E) glass for energy efficiency. Some brands make it easy for consumers to change the blinds themselves if the need arises, but assistance from an installer is necessary for others.
