Leave a reply

If your home’s windows are single pane or dual pane glass you suffer through GLASS PAIN most of the year.

Today given the record heat, we spend a great amount of time in our homes, this is the best time to upgrade your windows with window film from Advanced Film Solutions.

East

At a fraction of the cost of a window replacement our lifetime warranted coatings will drive lower utility costs by as much as 30-40% during the long hot summers.

Our films are transparent, optically clear films that stop heat, UV at the glass.

There are many levels of light filtering coatings to select so the end result is the exact customized solution for your windows and sliders.

Deed restrictions are not a problem because our ceramic coatings are less reflective than glass .

We also recommend that you consider a thicker security film coating that will harden your windows and retain glass in the frames so burglars can not simply break in and steal your valuables.

Our 3M Prestige and 3M Prestige Ultra Film meets all HOA rules and deed restrictions. Ideal for gated communities.

These shatter resistant films slow down thieves letting law enforcement time to respond to alarms.

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

Window Film Vs. Window Replacement Myths!

Myths:

Window film is a temporary solution for improving the energy efficiency of windows. The film doesn’t stand up to Florida’s heat and brutal sun.

Window tinting peels or bubbles or turns purple.

Replacement windows (their sales guy says!) is the best thing you can do to replace your single pane windows. Low E and IG units are clearly expensive but well worth it in the long run.

replaceFacts:

Today’s window film is manufactured for performance and durability.

Optically transparent coatings that are warranted for a lifetime and filter out 99.9% of harmful UV rays.

While damaged or deteriorating windows simply have to be replaced,  window tinting provides an affordable alternative to replacement when your goal is to improve energy efficiency. In fact, the cost for quick, professional installation is about one-tenth the cost of replacement windows!

should

These films will last for decades and they won’t peel, bubble or change colors.

Window films have been tested and documented by the NFRC so you get exactly what you are paying for.

The ROI from our window film installation is the fastest of any home improvement aftermarket solution. Typically payback in two years or less.
