Replacing Windows Vs. Window Tinting Tampa, Orlando, Sarasota

Leave a reply

Many homeowners are considering replacing their windows with IG units or at the very least more energy efficient glass. 

If the windows have air or moisture leakage, failed seals, or damaged frames (or if they aren’t structurally sound), then window film installation isn’t an option to address complaints or window problems.

But if your windows are structurally sound and in good condition, window film can often take care of several of the common problems associated with windows in commercial buildings.


There are many reasons why you may be considering this possibility:

  • Your monthly electric bill is outrageous.
  • There is almost zero winter insulating benefits for your current windows.
  • A window replacement company has captured your attention.
  • The local power company mentioned window replacement when they conducted an energy audit.
  • A friend or neighbor replaced their windows and has encouraged you to take a similar course!

We are Tampa, St. Pete, Clearwater and Orlando’s premier installation company for thin film retrofit technology films by Eastman Chemical and 3M.

 
  • Our portfolio includes VISTA, LLumar and the incomparable Huper Optik ceramic film.

Florida gated communities restrict the use of reflective window film. 

The older technology metallic films provided superior heat and glare rejection and virtually eliminated the UV but they altered the appearance of the home’s windows.

Today’s nanoceramic technology provides the outstanding heat rejection without changing the look of your home.

Eastman Chemical Vista, and Huper Optik and 3M Prestige Window Film meet these standards and are easily the best choice for upscale homes in gated and deed restricted communities.

2025, Commercial Contracting Window Tinting Solutions Alternatives

1 Reply

Commercial property managers throughout the country are researching the alternatives for reducing their energy costs and improving tenant comfort and safety.

Advanced Film Solutions offers the most extensive portfolio of window film brands and solutions to match any requirement.

 

Our installation teams have completed nearly 42,000 projects since we launched the business in 2007.

VISTA Films the NFRC Rated low interior reflective and ceramic films meet the aesthetic requirements of luxury homes and prestige gated communities and condos.

These films are the number one choice of Interior Designers who are primarily interested in protecting furnishings and accessories from the heat and UV fading.

We also acquired the Huper Optik nanoceramic films from Germany.

These are the best heat rejecting window films for a non-metallic film offering extraordinary optical clarity and superior performance.

We have recently joined the 3M Prestige and 3M Dealer network. The exciting multi-layered optical IR heat blocking Prestige is available in several light transmissions as well as shatter versions. There are also exterior versions ideal for laminated glass or difficult to reach windows.

Certainly the commercial market segment has similar requirements.

Lowering electric costs and providing a maximum return on their investment.

The cost benefit for a superior performing window film like 3M, VISTA and Huper Optik may not match the budget restrictions imposed on a larger facility.

In these situations we have developed a complete portfolio of reflective commercial films manufactured by the industry leaders Llumar, Avery Dennison-Hanita, Solar Gard, Johnson and SunTek.

These films are lower cost yet their heat rejecting performance and durability are never sacrificed.

These films are all NFRC Certified which is critically important as compared to car tinting dyed films which may look fine at the time of the installation but rapidly degrade over the next few months.

Property managers need to be cautious not to authorize an installation of these low ball cost films because the useful life is extremely limited.

Our standards are high and we are fully insured and BBB rated A Plus
 

The fact that we identify the brands we represent and can explain the nuances between these films is a benefit to our clients.
