Florida Homeowners Choose Window Tinting Vs. Blinds Or Shutters

Leave a reply


NFRC Certification has reinforced the option of installing window film like 3M Prestige rather than replacing inefficient windows.

The energy conservation performance is confirmed  but at a capital cost of 1/10th that of a complete replacement.

Blinds and decorative shutters block the light but do very little to factor out the heat. Blinds darken the room but your view is gone!

Orlando and Tampa homes and buildings have huge glass windows and sliders.

Many of these homes face a Preserve or a waterway.  One of the primary reasons our clients purchased these homes is that view!Take the condos that line Gulf Blvd in Sand Key and Clearwater. 

West facing units have spectacular views. I didn’t ask; but I assume the higher the floor the higher the purchase price.

Why?

That View!!
 
 


Advanced Film Solutions will preserve that view and eliminate a large % of the heat and almost 100% of the UV that can damage wood floors and draperies.

The views are crystal clear and all of our films are available in 72 inch widths for those larger aquarium glass windows! (How on earth would you cover them with blinds?)

Key advantages:

1. Views are unobstructed.

2. UV is eliminated.

3. Security of the home is enhanced.

4. Glare is reduced by a factor that the homeowner selects. Our films come in a host of light transmissions.

5. The heat is reduced saving energy costs and entitling you to energy incentives.

6. Privacy

7. Reducing carbon fuels

Our client faced high winds that shook all of their glass doors and sliders during last hurricane season. Now their windows are protected with 8 ML thick mylar additionally attached with structural silicone. This same window film blocks almost all of the UV and 60% of the heat gain!

 
Our solar security shatter films are the strongest in the industry:
 

 

3M Scotchshield and 3M Prestige Ultra Film, Eastman Chemical LLumar 8 ML mylar films, Madico,  Armorcoat Film and dual reflective Vista Film delay, deny and deter burglary while providing peace of mind during wind storms.

Residential, commercial  properties and government buildings can all benefit with lower cooling costs as well as shatter resistance combined.

 
 

One client lives in Clearwater and their sliders and window openings have an easy access to the street.   There have been several home break-ins recently and they wanted privacy as well as home security.  We are installing LLumar Magnum 20 on all of their windows and sliders.

This application will reinforce their glass, reduce the glare and provide privacy all at the same time.

This commercial client has an upscale salon in Tampa.  They face East and get hit with glare and heat all morning.

They considered blinds but this would block the interior view making the salon far less inviting.

The solution?
 

This non reflective film will block nearly 70% of the heat and glare.  Commercial rebates may apply and their clients will enjoy the comfort that 3M Prestige Film delivers !

Incredible IR Heat Blocking Window Film Tampa Bay, Pinellas, Orlando

Leave a reply

Window Film is a distinctly unique solution for reducing solar heat, Ultraviolet Rays and blocking glare.

(Thicker versions like 3M Prestige Ultra 70 or 50, provide superior protection against flying glass from accidents, vandalism or impact and forced entry.)

 
By preventing heat from entering your home or business your living space temperature stays stable and your cooling bills are dramatically reduced.
 


Many consumers are familiar with window tinting as a “do it yourself” project where the handiest among us set out to block heat or glare by buying GILA Film from their local Home Depot or Lowes. 

These films are highly reflective and dark.

Getting the creases and bubbles to evaporate while keeping your sanity- -well that’s an entirely different issue!

There have been dramatic improvements in technology that allows more light into your home or business with less heat than you would expect.
 

They do so by factoring out a higher percentage of the invisible IR wavelength. 

3M Prestige window film stops invisible IR wavelengths from coming through your glass. 200 microlayers as thin as a Post-it note

Nano-ceramic films like Huper Optik are well known examples.

Unfortunately consumers need to be vigilant because their is confusion about how IR rejection works.
 
 

Advanced Film Solutions competes against numerous local window tint shops and installers who offer car tinting on homes and businesses. Obviously for your home consumers expect a trusted source! As an A Plus Better Business Bureau rated company with more than 550 GOOGLE 5 Star Ratings. \
