    Oh lord, if it’s single pane with those temps, I can see why you’d be willing to try it 😬

    I was able to find a video that does a decent job of showing roughly what you might be able to expect from the cellular shades. For his house, the shades were able to reduce the inside temp by 3 degrees fahrenheit, with a 15% reduction in energy used by his AC. His house had double-pane windows already, so he had a decent starting point to begin with, and you may experience slightly higher reductions since you’re starting with single pane.

    If you end up going that route, I’d be interested to hear how much they helped in your apartment!
