Advanced Film Solutions Window Film For Tampa, Orlando & Sarasota Heat

Advanced Film Solutions is Florida’s leading window film installation company.

We make windows and sliders energy efficient, eliminating harmful UV rays and stopping glare and heat at the glass.

We provide our clients the widest range of selections manufactured by global leader Eastman Chemical, marketed under the LLumar, Vista and Huper Optik brands.

Our technicians are some of the best trained and equipped installers in the USA and our track record of delighted customers is simply unmatched.

We have developed our portfolio of choices based on our expertise in window film performance as well as durability.

It is critically important that the film installed be warranted against bubbling, peeling our color change.

This is particularly true for Florida homes and commercial businesses where the heat and sun are tougher on glass than any other region of the country.

As a family owned business, we have choices as well and the films we offer meet our best judgement that the solution out-performs all other choices.

This expertise is based on the 33 years we spent with 3M and the last 17 years as an independent business focusing on the greater Tampa Bay, Sarasota, and Orlando region.

Window film technology has been developed to meet and exceed consumer expectations. These after-market coatings are all NFRC certified for performance expectations.

The actual real-world cooling benefit once installed on your specific glass type is quantifiable.

This means your rooms will be cooler and at a level equal or greater than a window replacement. The cost for this heat reduction compared to a new window is about 10% of the investment you would have to spend for new windows.

If your home or office is getting overheated, we recommend that you call our office at 877-575-3456

Our estimates are free, and you’ll be surprised at how affordable our solutions will be. More than 23,000 clients can attest to this outcome.

Home Security Window Film Protects Tampa Bay Homes

Combined these coatings lower cooling costs, provide glare and UV protection and lower monthly electric costs.

Several reflective versions offer an additional daytime privacy feature which is potentially yet another benefit.

Tampa Bay, Orlando Window Film Consumer Comparisons

Advanced Film Solutions is proud to promote the Eastman Chemical window film products.

What consumers may not know is that Eastman Chemical is the world’s largest manufacturer of solar and solar security window film.

Their brands include LLumar, Vista, SunTek and Huper Optik.

Still there may be a perception that 3M is the leader in window film based on their well known Scotch brands, etc. and this inaccurate belief may skew some consumers into believing that the 3M window film is the top choice for residential and commercial films.

This is decidedly not the case in any objective comparison of product depth, capabilities or performance.

Eastman films out-perform the limited 3M choices in each major product category:

Solar Films:

The Eastman solar film portfolio includes a wider choice in light transmissions and appearance.

Reflective and dual reflective films as well as non-reflective ceramic and spectrally selective films.

These Eastman films are all NFRC certified and can easily be compared to the very limited 3M NFRC database. In terms of security films used for life safety and asset protection there is really no comparison.

Eastman’s LLumar film meets all critical testing requirements including GSA, DOD and ASTM and European Smash standards.

Choices include several neutral choices, silver and several dual reflective security films as well as thicker coatings of 7, 8, 11 ml or thicker for various applications.

The Huper Optik ceramic films are IR heat blocking choices ideal for deed restricted or gated communities.

These films out-perform the 3M prestige series as they provide superior heat rejection and better glare control features.

Additionally the clarity of the Eastman adhesives is superior to the 3M adhesives.

Huper Optik is dye free unlike the aforementioned Prestige films, so the heat filtering capabilities of the Huper Film will not degrade over time.
