Keep the Cool, Keep the View: Why Tampa Bay Trusts Advanced Film Solutions

Living in the Tampa Bay area means enjoying year-round sunshine—but it also means battling relentless heat, blinding glare, and the silent damage of UV rays. For many homeowners in Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco Counties, the challenge is finding a way to protect their homes without turning their beautiful windows and sliders into dark or reflective mirrors.

The answer is 3M Prestige Window Film, and the team at Advanced Film Solutions is uniquely qualified to deliver it. Here is why we are the premier choice for making Florida homes comfortable for decades to come.

The Science of Invisible Comfort: 3M Prestige

Traditional window tints often rely on metals or dark dyes to block heat. While effective, these can interfere with cell signals and drastically change the appearance of your home. 3M Prestige is different. Using non-metallized, multi-layer nanotechnology, this film offers:

• 97% Infrared Rejection: Blocks the primary source of the heat you feel on your skin, keeping your home significantly cooler.

• 99.9% UV Protection: Acts like SPF 1000 for your home, protecting your expensive hardwood floors, leather furniture, and artwork from fading.

• Maximum Clarity: Allows high levels of natural light to enter while remaining virtually invisible from the curb. It is the perfect solution for deed-restricted communities and HOAs.

• Peak Performance When You Need It: A unique feature of the Prestige Series is that its heat-rejection capabilities actually increase as the sun’s angle gets higher—protecting you most when the Florida sun is at its hottest.
