Tampa Region’s Smart Choices For Cooling UV Shatter Window Film

Most consumers have a limited amount of information concerning window film.

Checking online can eliminate some obvious issues since everyone claims to have the best solutions, etc.

Fortunately consumers can get detailed performance characteristics thanks to the NFRC which is a quasi-governmental agency that is the repository for factual, lab tested specifications for leading window film brands.

The NFRC (Click here) was developed to demonstrate accuracy in light of the anticipated energy savings that would eventually lead to Energy Star ratings.

While the intention of window film manufacturers to comply with the strict testing data imposed is admirable, an unintended virtue of the NFRC is to dispel numerous exaggerations frequently espoused during competitive sales calls and demonstrations.

Advanced Film Solutions is  Florida’s leading commercial and residential window film installation companies.

We remain steadfast in highlighting factual performance expectations and real-world film comparisons.

Here are a few examples:

3M Window Film is the well known superior window film solution for homes and condos that are under deed restrictions. Our Prestige and Prestige Ultra film meets all HOA rules and is virtually invisible on your windows and sliders.

IR heat blocking films like 3M Prestige and Huper Optik  filter out a large percentage of the IR wavelengths as IR wavelengths make up more than 50% of total solar energy (Heat)

The remaining portion of heat is a factor of visible light being filtered.

Advanced Film Solutions represents 3M and Eastman Chemical and their portfolio of Vista, LLumar, Huper Optik coatings.

We prefer facts.

Documented performance and results.

Tampa Bay Transforms Clear Glass Windows With Advanced Film Solutions

Clear glass windows and doors are what builders typically install when they build homes and offices in Florida.

Florida home owners in the tropical climate of Tampa Bay, Sarasota and Orlando understand just how many problems they face when they move into their new home.

  1. Rooms are too bright.

  • Glare makes it impossible to watch TV or work on their computers.

  • Furnishings and wood floors fade under the relentless heat, light and UV
  • Privacy is non-existent.

  • Glass is easy for burglars to break in.

Today’s high technology window film solves these issues and more.

Thin films filter 99.9% of the UV and are available in scores of light transmissions.

The homeowner can easily select the perfect light transmission which determines just how light, or dark a room can be.

Typically darker films will block more heat but there are next generation coatings that factor out more IR heat along with visible light.

This allows a lighter coating to block more total solar energy than a standard metalized film.

Advanced Film Solutions team of experts works with our clients to determine the perfect customized solution.

Leading manufacturer’s include 3M Prestige, 3M Ultra solar security film, Eastman Chemical LLumar, Vista Film and Huper Optik.  Saint Gobain and Madico.

Thicker versions provide dual benefits of solar insulation as well as security and glass impact strength.
