Earth Day, Tampa Bay Window Film For Greener Living

As we celebrate Earth Day  (Interesting facts!) it might be an opportune moment to highlight the energy savings and environmental benefits of a window film installation.

Homeowners and business owners can benefit by reducing the heat gain and subsequently the demand for energy consumption.

Solar control window film can filter out nearly 80% of total solar energy and reduce summer cooling costs by 50%.

If you are considering how to take immediate steps toward energy efficiency for your home or business window film has the best ROI of any retrofit alternative.

These are durable coatings with a lifetime warranty.

Our selections include non reflective ceramic films that meet all deed restrictions and provide maximum IR heat rejection.

Dual benefit solar safety security films that protect your home from burglary and provide privacy!

More choices and the very best value.

Child Safety Awareness – Overheated Cars, Hot Car Deaths

Incredibly many children lose their lives when they are left unattended in overheated cars.

The numbers are astonishing.

Here is another website Kids andCars that has information on this subject.

We are reminded about these tragedies since a small child lost his life just this month in the Miami area.

As a car tinting company here in Tampa Bay we typically discuss glare, UV and privacy concerns that are resolved with LLumar SelectPro FormulaOne Films. Obviously getting window film on your car is an elective decision.

The issue of child safety is far more critical and we would like to alert all consumers to keep their eye out for children and frankly pets that are left alone in a locked car.

Let’s all do our part!

Bubba Army Tinting Tampa Bay Window Film

Advanced Film Solutions is Tampa Bay LLumar SelectPro, FormulaOne Car Tinting located at 1642 Land O’ Lakes Blvd in Lutz.

We were excited to sponsor the return of Bubba The Love Sponge to Tampa Bay radio on AM 820.

If you are a member of the Bubba Army you might have listened to this mornings show where our ad was critiqued and “improved upon” by Bubba and his crew.

Our original ad was fairly straight laced although we did try to capture some levity with the concept of keeping your hot girlfriend or wife cooler in her vehicle.

Of course Bubba has an innate ability to make any copy sound better and by the time we were through he decided we should be called “Tommy Taint Window Tinting” (you have to admire the alliteration although the biology may sound a bit creepy?)

Whatever you call us – – -the Advanced Film Solution team is geared to performing the very best car tinting installations in Tampa Bay with world leading LLumar and FormulaOne Car Tinting.

Keep listening to Bubba and let’s see how our ad gets better!

Comparing 3M Window Film Vs. Eastman For Tampa Bay Homes

Advanced Film Solutions recently exhibited at the Tampa Bay Home Show and we were able to demonstrate the superior performance and alternatives in direct comparison to 3M window film.

ho-624x555

Eastman Chemical is the world leader in window film sales and technology. The Eastman portfolio covers the LLumar, Vista, Huper Optik and Sun Tek lines that offer consumers 6 times the number of choices; all documented with NFRC ratings.

Our Huper Optik ceramic non reflective films are ideal for deed restricted communities. These coatings are less reflective than glass and are available in darker light transmissions that lower glare and block more heat than the 3M dyed prestige films.

Huper Optik has no dyes whatsoever so there won’t be any haze or color change.

Eastman Vista and LLumar offer a wider array of dual reflective coatings in dozens of choices while 3M is limited to just a handful.

12992_618168704883271_1326451465_n

Our Security solar films are the standard for commercial, residential and government projects. All of our choices in blast rated films are 8 ML thick and we have silver, neutral, dual reflective and non reflective coatings.

Our EnerLogic Low E film has been lowering cooling and heating costs for 6 years. 3M has recently introduced their version of our EnerLogic 70 and our EnerLogic 35 blocks nearly 76% of the summer heat while their coating can only filter 49%!

IR Heat Blocking Window Film, Facts & Fiction

Today’s consumers can enjoy the benefits of IR heat blocking window film thanks to advances in thin film technology and in particular nanotechnology.

The technical aspects aside there are confusing statements frequently made that tend to misrepresent the efficacy of these films.

Advanced Film Solutions promotes Eastman ceramic films, notably the patented Huper Optik films.  These films are available in numerous light transmissions from dark to invisible.

3M offers their Prestige series which is limited to lighter 40% – 70%

The confusion generally results from the distinction between IR wavelengths and visible light wavelengths of Sun’s electromagnetic energy.

50% of heat is produced by the visible light spectrum and roughly the same amount of heat is produced by the invisible IR wavelengths.

 

A window film that can block 100% of the IR wavelengths (there is no such animal by the way!) would still allow 50% of the visible light heat unless some mechanism was used to lower the visible light transmission.

This is a very important clarification because many misinformed window film people highlight the IR wavelength rejection as the only cogent factor for heat reduction. They may also try to support that error by demonstrating IR heat lamps that give the illusion that the IR wavelength rejection is the entire issue.

It’s the combination of IR rejection and visible light rejection that produces the most effective measures to combat heat.

19191721680_f788f92016_z

This becomes a balancing act and the consumer can choose just how dark or light they want their film to be.

The NFRC has provided a valuable resource for consumers to acquire factual performance characteristics rather than sales hype or ignorance of the physics behind heat.

Advanced Film Solutions coatings are all NFRC rated and we encourage the comparisons because we appreciate that facts overcome illusion.
