They say that the windows are the eyes of a building. And, aside from sounding mildly creepy, there is some truth in it. The windows play a crucial role in a building’s character, and they can make or break the overall aesthetic. Balancing form and function when trying to make the most of them can be a real challenge.
What’s So Great About Solar Film?
Windows have a lot to do with light: solar heat, UV rays, glare, and the like. Wouldn’t it be great if you could just control it?
The good news is that the wonders of modern technology have come through for us again. Solar window film can make a big difference in any home or business location. Here are five reasons that, after one simple application, you’ll love your solar film windows.
1. They Keep Your Temperature Stable
Heat gain through the windows is a tricky challenge, especially during the blazing months of the summer. When solar energy passes through your windows, it may overheat your space. Solar film mitigates this by controlling the passage of this energy into your building, keeping your space cooler for longer.
2. They Protect Your Interiors (And Your Skin!)
South-facing windows are a selling point for a reason: everybody loves a bit of natural light. Still, an overabundance of natural light can be detrimental. Ultraviolet radiation, or simply UV light, is a natural, invisible component of light with deteriorating effects on fabrics, artwork, and even skin. Solar film windows protect both you and your interiors by blocking out up to 99% of those harmful UV rays.
3. They Can Help Save Money
Though “energy efficiency” is a term more typically heard in the business world, it can be a notable benefit to residential locations as well. By protecting your internal temperatures from the greenhouse effect, your solar film windows can lift the excess strain from your air conditioning system. This, in turn, may lead to lower electric bills and less maintenance in the long run.
4. They Reduce Glare and Eye Strain
If you own any screens at all — television, desktop, laptop, or cell phone — you already know that glare can hit you without warning. Maybe your living room windows coincide a bit too well with the sunset; maybe your storefront gets the brunt of reflections from passing cars. Whatever your case may be, solar film can block out a great deal of the annoying glare that threatens your comfort and productivity.
5. They Just Look Good
There have been a lot of window treatments available over the years, some of them expensive, some of them messy, some of them flat-out ugly. Solar window film flips the script by providing a supremely effective, surprisingly stylish solution for any windows afflicted with natural light. Plus, with varying levels of tinting available, you can customize your windows to suit your taste.
