How Window Film Protects Tampa Bay Schools & Daycare Centers

Advanced Film Solutions has been protecting schools and day care centers throughout Tampa Bay, Orlando and Sarasota with security glazing window film.

These transparent coatings are thicker and the adhesive stronger than standard solar control window film.

Typically 8 ML thick, security glazing window film is designed for maximum impact strength, tensile strength and puncture resistance.

There are instances when a privacy security film should be considered during a lock down event or safe room situation.

These films will provide visibility from the interior to the street but prevent targeting from the exterior.

The safety administrators for these institutions prefer the covert nature of these coatings.

The appearance of the school’s windows can remain unchanged or if they prefer a lightly tinted coating for energy savings and glare reduction.

The objective is to keep the “bad guys” out and security glazing window film maintains the window envelope.

These films are the very same coatings used on the US Capitol Building and embassies throughout the world.

Advanced Film Solutions is Florida’s leading installer of high security impact window films.

Today’s unfortunate challenges for student and faculty protection are the driving force for these installations.

2021, Tampa Bay Home Improvement: New Windows Vs. Window Film?

The new year is upon us and Florida homeowners are considering upgrading their windows and sliders.

The first thought for most people is a total window replacement.

Consumers are “sold” on the energy efficiency of IG units either because they have succumbed to advertising or peer pressure from friends and neighbors.

The cost for a complete window replacement is very expensive and the ROI may take more than 15 years to recover your investment.

White Paper

Window film is applied to your existing windows and sliders. These thin film coatings transform your current windows into energy efficient systems that filter out more heat, glare and UV as compared to new windows at a fraction of the cost of replacement.

Our payback is less than  2 years and our lifetime warranty and NFRC rated performance expectations takes the guess-work out!

Prestige Tampa Bay, Orlando Homes Demand Ceramic Films

Homeowners know how effective window film can be for maintaining a cooler, energy efficient UV free home.

This reflective appearance also became an issue for deed restricted homes in gated communities and condos.

Advanced Film Solutions solves your heat issues, glare UV and rising cooling costs with ceramic IR heat blocking coatings from Huper Optik.

Huper Optik is a patented ceramic film that is manufactured by Eastman Chemical’s in Germany.

These films are dye free and durable.

Florida Window Film Commercial Project Management

Many commercial buildings in Florida have had window film installed for decades or more.

These films did what they were supposed to do (one would hope!) back in the 1980’s or earlier.

Now it is abundantly clear that these coatings have degraded over time.

If you have management responsibility for a facility that has failed and damaged window film you should be aware of the newest technology available to you.

Advanced Film Solutions has developed the best team of window film installers and window film solutions in the State of Florida.

  • Reduce heat gain

  • Lower cooling costs

  • Provide Privacy

  • Improve security

  • Improve curb appeal of building.

  • Eliminate hot spots.

  • Graphic for branding and conference room privacy.

Leading solutions like Eastman Chemicals reflective and dual reflective coatings as well as ceramic coatings that provide superior heat rejection without altering the appearance of your glass.

No matter the size of your project we can remove the old damaged window film and transform your glass into energy efficient systems that will lower glare, filter out UV and bring clarity back to your windows and doors.

Removing old film is just one capability that our experts can easily tackle.

Security window film is also an option particularly if you experience the potential of smash and grab burglary or are concerned about threats of any type.

These thicker solar security safety films hold the glass in place while providing the sun control benefits discussed.
