Window Film 2025, Tampa Bay’s Smart Consumer Choice

The window film industry has been around for decades.

Starting in the 1960’s and evolving through these years in technological leaps of innovation in polyester, adhesives, coatings and nanotechnology.

The improvements demonstrated include incredible optical clarity, durability and efficacy against heat, glare, UV damage and privacy.

The leader in these critical benefits are the folks at Eastman Chemical who manufacture LLumar, Vista, Huper Optik and the Suntek brands. You can find their DIY films sold under the Gila brand.

Why window film and why now?

Clear glass presents numerous issues for home and business owners. There are a long list of problems including:

  • Overheated rooms.
  • UV sun damage to wood floors and furnishings.
  • Lack of privacy.
  • Glass breakage and shatter resistance.
  • High cooling costs.

These problems are particularly true for single pane clear glass, tempered clear glass sliders and dual pane IG units with little or no solar light filtering or UV protection.

To be clear it is the case that consumers can decide to replace their windows and sliders with energy efficient windows at a cost that has an incredibly high sticker price.

Window film is the smart alternative to a window replacement or simply living with your current situation.

These aftermarket films provide lasting benefits as stated above. The actual performance has been measured and confirmed by the NFRC which also rates the efficiency of new windows.

Window film will transform inefficient glass into energy smart windows at a fraction (1/10th) of a window replacement.

Advanced Film Solutions experts provide free consultations and they will show you our wide range of coatings that will meet your specific requirements.

Our choices include reflective films, clear and lightly tinted ceramic nanotechnology films as well as dual reflective films that will not compromise your views or alter the appearance of your windows.

These ceramic films meet all deed restrictions and home owner association rules which are important here in Florida.

Now is a perfect time to compare window film to new windows or suffering with the heat.

Tampa’s Best Car Tinting Starts At Advanced Film Solutions

It’s a simple fact that driving around Tampa without any solar film protection on your windows is nearly impossible.

This is also the case for SUV’s that come equipped with factory tinted privacy glass on the rear passenger windows and back window.

What you may not realize is that this factory tint is doing next to nothing when it comes to UV protection or very little when it comes to heat rejection.

Advanced Film Solutions is Tampa’s LLumar SelectPro high performance automotive film installation company.

Our team of expert installers uses high speed plotters to cut the exact pattern needed for your vehicle.

This makes for a cleaner and scratch free installation and our warranty covers adhesive issues, bubbling or peeling.

Educated consumers know that window film isn’t all the same.

Advanced Film Solutions offers a range of solutions that are based on the amount of heat being rejected and this is connected to the type of thin film material being installed on your vehicle.

Our ceramic films like Stratos and Pinnacle factor out visible light heat as well as the IR wavelengths. The capacity to filter out IR is a testimony to the construction of the film itself.

Nano materials and ceramic allow invisible wavelengths to be rejected. A standard film can appear to look exactly the same but with vastly lower total solar energy rejection.

No we don’t expect you to become window film experts overnight or simply by reading this posting or browsing the internet.

Advanced Film Solutions has been doing window film for more than 40 years so we have this locked down!

We can explain the nuances between film and whether you should consider investing more for a better heat blocking film. That’s ultimately your choice completely!
