Sunscreen For Your Home: Window Film

The morning sun streams into your windows and brightens your environment. While you may enjoy the warmth and beauty the sun allows, it brings about many problems and hazards to you and your belongings. Damaging and harmful ultraviolet light, uncomfortable solar heat, and ye-straining glare are large factors in the fading and deterioration of your furniture, flooring, window treatments and fabrics. Solar control window films offer a costeffective solution, while providing a myriad of other benefits. Window films work by screening out the undesirable side effects of natural sunlight: significant amounts of solar energy, minimal visible light and blocking almost 100% of ultraviolet. You can expect to experience immediate benefits, such as improved comfort, reduced energy consumption, minimized glare and a more temperate climate. Plus, long-term you’ll find the color of your costly furnishings and decor stay truer with less chance of premature fading. You’ll live and work more comfortably, and enjoy peace of mind that your interior space is better protected. Solar control films are comprised of optically clear layers of polyester, laminating, mounting and ultraviolet inhibiting adhesives, and a scratch resistant surface. Longer lasting, higher performing films, such as Solar Gard, manufactured by Bekaert Specialty Films, are sputter-coated with durable reflective metals like titanium, stainless steel, copper and aluminum particles. These metals are what determine the color, reflectivity and solar performance. Once retrofitted to the interior surface of glass, Solar Gard window film provides instantaneous results – shielding your property from the damaging and uncomfortable effects of the sun. It’s one of the few affordable products you can buy that provides so many benefits. Window films are professionally installed. Contact us for an estimate.
