Shatter Sun Control Window Film Tampa Bay Region Gets Christmas Ready

Leave a reply


Safety and security experts recommend the application of thicker (8ML+) shatter resistant window film for perimeter protection on retail stores, offices, government and financial buildings and most recently school facilities.

These films provide protection from forced entry, smash and grab crime, vandalism and blast events.

You might be surprised to discover that you can protect your home, business, religious center or non-profit with the exact same films that protect the US Capitol (Armorcoat) US Embassies (Madico) and high profile landmark buildings across the nation (LLumar.)

We also represent the 3M Prestige Ultra and 3M clear and Night Vision Ultra series. The Prestige film is ideal for deed restricted, gated communities since they are non-reflective.

These films meet the GSA Level 3A and DoD requirements and the following independent testing criteria:

For example the world leading LLumar & Vista dual reflective 28/38 (Eastman Chemical) offers safety films meeting numerous certifications and test standards in the United States, Europe and around the world, including:

  • ANSI Z97.1 and CPSC 16 CFR 1201 Cat I and II
  • General Services Administration (GSA) and United Facilities Criteria (UFC)
  • ASTM Large Missile Level C and Small Missile requirements
  • Underwriters Laboratory UL972 Forced Entry requirements
  • Factory Mutual FM Approvals 4350 Small Missile
  • EN356, level P2A

Tampa Bay, Orlando Shatter Window Film Glass Protection On A Roll

Leave a reply

Whether you are a homeowner concerned about burglary or a property manager, building owner or school safety official; 2026, is the right time to consider installing shatter resistant window film.

Applications:
 
  • Retail store windows to reduce property and asset loss through window break-in.

  • Health care and hospitality sectors to protect staff and visitors.

  • Government buildings (Federal, Sate and local municipalities) protecting against violence and potential terrorist attacks.

Does Security Glazing Window Film Work?

This is the obvious question and Advanced Film Solutions with offices throughout Florida and resources throughout the USA relies upon the world leading manufacturers of safety and security glazing films.

LLumar


Armorcoat


Madico

Suntek

Avery – Dennison Hanita

Mylar coatings manufactured by 3M, Eastman Chemical LLumar, Saint-Gobain Armorcoat, Madico, Avery-Dennison Safety Zone  and SunTek have all been independently tested to meet the following building safety criteria:

There are numerous advantages for the retrofit application of these coatings.  The practical ease of installation means your property gets immediate protection for the existing windows and entry doors.

Given the considerable budget amount required and capitol expense for replacing the glass with laminated safety windows the ROI of window film is exceptional.prepare

These films are used on military bases, army recruiting offices and Federal buildings throughout the USA.

These very same coatings protect major retail stores as well as landmark buildings throughout the world.

The coatings Advanced Film Solutions installs are exactly the same thickness with exactly the same attachment systems.

Considerations:
 

While we are focused on life safety issues it should also be noted that these films are available in tinted versions that will lower utility costs, eliminate UV and earn local rebates from power companies. 

These coatings serve to “green” your home or facility and may qualify for grants and Federal tax incentives.

The solar control versions meet the same level of security as the clear versions so you will not be sacrificing safety.

Advanced Film Solutions provides free estimates and our track record, decades of experience and attention to meeting clients requirements is unequaled in the state of Florida.

We have recently been awarded the Super Service Award from Angie’s List for the 14th consecutive year.

Stop Painful Electric Bills With Tampa Bay, Orlando Window Tinting

Leave a reply

You’ve watched your monthly electric bills rise by incredible rates these last few years. TECO has raised our rates and 2026 won’t be any better.

Power companies raised their rates and there is  no reason to believe they will be getting any lower in the future.

PicMonkey Collage

Homeowners and business owners in Tampa, Orlando and Bradenton -Sarasota spend more money on cooling than any other state!

We know why!

 

Our AC is on longer and our heat pumps are inefficient.  We typically have clear single pane glass, huge energy wasters.

 

Your windows and glass doors are responsible for a large percentage of that heat loss in the winter and the heat gain in the summer months.

That’s the major point of attack with our energy conserving suite of retrofit window films.

3M Prestige or LLumar Window Film  reduce your monthly electric costs by nearly 30%.
 
 

Think about how much savings that would be this summer?

And you don’t have to sacrifice the look of your windows or the aesthetics of your home.

Vista Films and Huper Optik are available in a wide range of light transmissions and in non-reflective or reflective appearance.

 

Our films are warrantied against bubbles, color change or peeling for a lifetime.

Call today and get a free estimate. 
 

Why would you want to keep paying the same high costs for power this summer?
