Orlando, Tampa, Sarasota Comparison Shopping Window Tinting

The competitive landscape is constantly changing and today’s consumer has to be better educated in making the right choice for their window film installation.

We have seen a number of home installation quotations asking us to offer comparisons against the 3M Prestige Window Films or Night Vision film throughout Florida.

As an expert in window film installations and the numerous choices available to consumers Advanced Film Solutions is perfectly positioned to offer window film solutions that out-perform the 3M-film  and importantly deliver a better return on your investment.

 
Clearly the bar is raised high.
 
 
 
 
 

 

Consumers may simply sign up for a 3M installation no matter the cost based upon their “familiarity” with the 3M Brand.

We grant that you should be more familiar with these name brands but if consumers have learned anything in the last decade it’s the fact that there are a vast array of choices available to you that will exceed the well known brand’s performance and price points.

Advanced Film Solutions has developed the most complete portfolio of the leading window films in the industry.

 

Consumers may not realize this fact but brands like VISTA Films, LLumar, Solar Gard, Armorcoat, Avery-Dennison, Huper Optik, Madico, SunTek and Johnson Films comprise more than 90% of the residential and commercial window film sales in the USA.

There is a reason for this and the key factor is performance of the window film solution coupled with the price points.
 

You might be skeptical about these facts but we wouldn’t expect you to rely simply upon our recommendation no matter how experienced we might be in window films or the fact that I spent 33 years with 3M and was the former National Sales Manager of 3M Window Film (but that doesn’t hurt my position- -does it?)

We only ask that consumers take the opportunity to compare our selections to the quotes you may have received from 3M representatives either after their walk through in your home.

Compare the interior and exterior reflectivity of the films and the rebate requirements that may qualify you for immediate rebates.

 
Compare our superior optical clarity ON THE GLASS!

  • Compare our transferable lifetime warranty to their original owner policy.
  • Compare our choices in light transmissions, reflectivity, hue and strength.
  • Compare the NFRC documented credentials of our films.

Finally; compare our cost versus benefit.

That all important bottom line!

Ceramic Window Film Designed For Tampa Bay Deed Restricted Communities

Gated communities frequently have HOA rules that limit or prohibit the use of reflective window film.

Their concern is the potential that highly reflective films will alter the appearance of homes and potentially reduce resale value.

Fortunately Eastman Chemical performance films has a complete suite of retrofit window film solutions that match your HOA rules and deed restrictions.

Consider our Huper Optik ceramic coatings that factor out visible light, UV and IR wavelengths associated with heat. Our lighter transmissions are virtually undetectable.

These coatings are less reflective than glass making it easier to see out day or night.

Tampa, Orlando, Sarasota Window Tinting For Deed Restricted Gated Communities

Many of our neighbors reside in gated (Deed Restricted) communities. 
 
 

Their Homeowners Association (HOA)  has an architectural committee that may limit or prohibit the installation of reflective films.

 

Not to worry because Advanced Film Solutions offers a complete suite of energy and glare rejecting ceramic films that are non reflective and unlike 3M Prestige; 100% dye free.

It’s really the best of all worlds since you get the heat and glare rejection that you’d expect from a reflective film without that shiny look that associations prohibit.

We are the leaders in ceramic coated films installing throughout Florida representing the Huper Optik Ceramic Films.

Advanced Film Solutions has the widest and deepest variety of non reflective ceramic films in Florida.

Their specialized ceramic construction allows them to reject higher amounts of infrared heat (invisible light) that comprises a major component of the total solar energy streaming through your windows.

Clear views!


There are no dyes in these films or a blue-ish hue that is readily observed in our competitor’s prestige product line you’ll find at home depot.

The interior and exterior reflectivity of Huper Optik is lower than glass, so there are no issues with the Deed Restrictions.

And. .

Our ceramic films never have a blue color.

Advanced Film Solutions is confident that we have the most effective and best value solutions for our clients.

 

Having earned the Super Service Award from Angie’s List for 9 years so it’s clear that our customers get the best installations with a lifetime warranty.

I liken it to wine selection.
 
 

Let’s say you are looking for a good wine you would go to the local shop and ask the owner which wine he would recommend?

If you looked at his shelves and noticed that they had only one type of wine it would hardly surprise you if he responded – -“pick that one from the shelf!”

 
We come at this from a customer prospective rather than a sole source point of view.
 

Having spent decades involved in window film we know which films have the best performance, features, advantages and benefits. 

We ask questions and consult, rather than simply proposing a “one size fits all” approach.

The “best” is quite often a very subjective adjective.  When we speak about the best film solution we cover the following aspects;


1. Based on your specific requirements which window film solution will best solve your problems?

2. Quite often there are several possible solutions; the determination will be based upon your aesthetic choice particularly if your neighborhood has deed restrictions.


3. Warranty is critical and of course our films are warranted for a lifetime
 

IG units manufacturers may void the warranty if window films are installed. VISTA will assume the warranty on your IG units.

5. Width is never a limitation unlike our key competitor, 3M.  The state of the art manufacturing facilities at Eastman Chemical Performance Films and Huper Optik allow them to produce wider width films.

We never have to install film on your glass with a running seam across the entire pane!
 

6. Our promise is to stay ahead of the technology curve in the window film business.  The ceramic and nanotechnology window films have increased the effectiveness of residential solutions without compromising the “look” of your home.

7. Our Low E Films provide energy savings in the winter and summer months.

Window Tinting Tampa Summer Heat Stopper

Advanced Film Solutions  stop heat & glare from entering your home’s windows.

Consumers typically think about replacing their windows at a cost of ten times of our window film solutions.

Advanced Film Solutions installs incredible heat reflecting films manufactured by Eastman Chemical Vista, Huper Optik and LLumar.

These thin film coatings are applied to the interior side of your glass.

Our solar and solar security window films are available in many versions of light transmissions and appearances.

All of our films have been certified by the NFRC the same agency that quantifies the performance of new window systems.

All coatings block 99.9% of the UV. UV is a major contributor to faded furnishings and health concerns.

You decide just how light or dark the film should be.

Some rooms require more heat control than others.

We offer a complete portfolio of films designed for deed restricted gated communities where reflective film is prohibited.

We offer a suite of films that combine solar control properties with thicker mylar polyester film that provide an effective barrier against forced entry.

The cost of an installation is only a small fraction of what you’d spend for a window replacement.

huperoptik

Our Vista, Huper Optik ceramic coatings are safe for insulated and dual pane glass. We offer warranties that document that any glass breakage will be covered.

Always free estimates and all major credit cards are accepted.
