Protect, Home Furnishings From UV, Tampa, Orlando, Sarasota Window Film

 
 

Take a close look at your furnishings under the bright light that streams through your windows every single day.

UV
The unrelenting UV, heat and bright light damage your most valuable furnishings, rugs, wood floors, drapes and leather.

The cost to repair is prohibitive which is why most homeowners simply buy replacements.
 
 

There is a better way.

UV window film provides a barrier between a building’s occupants/interior furnishings and harmful ultraviolet radiation. Ultraviolet A rays (UVA) in particular are responsible for causing extensive damage – including initiating skin cancer development and causing fading of furniture and flooring.

While ordinary glass offers little to no protection from the sun, UV window films do, and at a fraction of the cost of other UV-blocking alternatives.

The Vista™ brand of UV window film provides the highest level of UVA and UVB rejection by blocking up to 99.9% of harmful UV rays.

Vista UV window film’s protective shield helps defend against the dangers of UV induced skin diseases and photosensitivity. The sun’s ultraviolet rays are also the leading cause of fading in interiors such as furniture, floorings, wall coverings, artwork and photographs. Retail stores are especially prone to damage from UVA rays as merchandise in windows is more susceptible to damage and fading.


Advanced Film Solutions installs UV, heat blocking thin films that preserve your furnishings.

These are the same films that effectively reduce your monthly electric bills by nearly 30% a month.

2025, Where To Buy Security Solar Window Film, Tampa Bay, Orlando, Sarasota

Many Florida homeowners who are investigating solar control UV filtering and glare blocking window films also consider thicker safety security versions for home protection.

Getting more bang for the buck for versions that hold glass in place against forced entry or impact while performing the exact same solar benefits can only add to the rationale for investing in window film.

Advanced Film Solutions appreciates this logic and we offer more solar security versions of window film than any other company in Florida.

At a minimum our coatings are 8 ML thick. This is the standard required for meeting various independent tests that quantify impact performance. 8 ML films meet ASTM 1996, ASTM1886 B and GSA Level 3 for blast mitigation.

Several versions of our Vista and LLumar security films also meet Factory Mutual standards for wind blown debris on commercial window systems.

We now offer 3M Scotchshield, 3M Ultra clear films and the Prestige Ultra Series!

No matter the film selected it is recommended that sliders and larger window openings receive an application of Dow 995 structural silicone attachment system, or 3M IPA along the perimeter of the frame. This additional anchoring is the best method for improving the performance of the window system against impact.

Advanced Film Solutions represents Eastman Chemical whose portfolio includes LLumar, Vista, Huper Optik and SunTek solar security Film.

We also represent Madico and Sunscape (the films on the US Capitol Building) as well as the Saint-Gobain Armorcoat films.

And as mentioned above we now offer 3M Scotchshield, 3M Ultra and 3M Prestige Ultra solar safety film.

Advanced Film Solutions also represents the Avery-Dennison Films.

The wide variety of selections gives consumers the best alternatives to match their aesthetic requirements.
