Glare & Heat Control Window Tinting Tampa, Orlando, Sarasota

Leave a reply

Clear glass windows facing east, west or south create an untenable situation.

It’s way too hot!

Uncontrolled glare and heat make employees and customers uncomfortable.

Imagine working conditions where the glare makes it impossible to go through the day without getting eye strain.

Added to the discomfort unfiltered sunlight can fade and damage interior carpets, paintings and furniture.

The very same clear and tinted versions of these films can provide safety and security for homes and businesses throughout the state of Florida.

Solar security versions factor out glare, heat and lower monthly electric costs.

Several versions provide daytime privacy along with the aforementioned benefits.

This is particularly valuable during a lock down or when your goal is to protect personnel from targeting from an outsider (think scoping!)

Advanced Film Solutions provides attachment systems that meet the physical characteristics of your window system. Typically we use Dow 995 structural sealants. These are the wet seal products used during blast and windstorm testing.

Cooler Days For Now But The Tampa Heat Is Coming. 2026 Window Film Comfort

Leave a reply

Why a Free Estimate is Your First Step to a Cooler, Protected Home in 2026

As we kick off 2026, Advanced Film Solutions is proud to celebrate 19 years as Florida’s premier window film installation experts.

For nearly two decades, we’ve helped homeowners across the Sunshine State reclaim their comfort by partnering with world-class brands like 3M, Eastman Vista, LLumar, and Huper Optik.

If you’re tired of squinting at your TV, watching your hardwood floors fade, or dreading your monthly cooling bill, you might be considering window tinting. But where do you start?

The answer is simple: with a free estimate. Here is why getting a professional consultation is the smartest move you can make for your home this year.

1. Personalized Solutions for Your Unique Needs

No two homes are the same, and neither are your windows. A “one-size-fits-all” approach doesn’t work when you’re dealing with Florida’s intense UV rays. During a free estimate, our experts evaluate:

  • Window Orientation: North-facing windows need different protection than those facing the harsh afternoon sun in the west.

  • Glass Type: We ensure the film we recommend is safe for your specific glass (including dual-pane or Low-E windows).

  • Your Goals: Are you looking for maximum heat rejection, privacy, or shatter-resistant security? We match the right technology—like 3M Prestige or Huper Optik Ceramic—to your specific priorities.

2. Accurate Budgeting with Zero Risk

Internet “guesstimates” can be wildly inaccurate. A free estimate provides a clear, transparent breakdown of costs tailored to your home’s square footage and the specific film technology you choose.

  • No Hidden Fees: You’ll know exactly what the investment looks like upfront.

  • ROI Calculations: Our team can help you estimate how much you’ll save on energy bills, often showing a “payback” period of just a few years.

3. Professional Education (Without the Sales Pitch)

Window film has evolved significantly. Modern films use nanotechnology to block heat without darkening your rooms or making your windows look like mirrors. A free consultation allows you to:

  • See and Feel Samples: Hold the film against your glass to see how it looks in your light.

  • Ask the Experts: With 19 years of experience, we can answer technical questions about UV rejection (up to 99.9%) and how we protect your home’s interior.

4. Warranty Peace of Mind

When you get an estimate from an authorized dealer like Advanced Film Solutions, you aren’t just buying film; you’re buying a lifetime transferable warranty. We’ll explain how our professional installation protects your investment against bubbling, peeling, or fading—something DIY kits simply can’t offer.

Stop Guessing, Start Saving

The Florida sun doesn’t wait, and neither should you. Whether you are in Tampa, Orlando, or Sarasota, a free estimate is the most effective way to see how you can lower your energy bills by up to 30% while protecting your family and furnishings.
