Why Advanced Film Solutions Recommends Prestige Ultra for Tampa Homeowners

The 3M Prestige Ultra line is not just a film; it’s a dual-purpose architectural upgrade that addresses the two biggest threats to homes in the greater Tampa area:

1. Unmatched Shatter Protection: The “Ultra” Strength

Tampa Bay is no stranger to severe weather. Standard window glass can easily shatter from debris during a windstorm or hurricane, creating deadly projectiles and exposing your home to further damage.

The “Ultra” in Prestige Ultra refers to its revolutionary, patented micro-layered film construction. Unlike conventional security films that rely on simple thickness, this tear-resistant technology uses up to 42 micro-layers to create a resilient shield.

  • Windstorm and Hurricane Defense: If the glass breaks, the film holds the shards securely in the frame, preventing dangerous flying glass and keeping the elements outside where they belong.

  • Forced Entry Delay: The film significantly slows down intruders trying to gain quick access through a broken window, giving you and law enforcement valuable response time.

2. Superior Solar Control: The “Prestige” Comfort

Even on a cool December day, the Florida sun is relentless. The “Prestige” component means you get the best of 3M’s solar control technology without the high reflectivity of a traditional tinted film.

  • Maximum Heat Rejection: The non-metalized, multi-layer optical film rejects a significant amount of solar heat, stabilizing temperatures and dramatically lowering your air conditioning costs—a benefit you’ll appreciate year-round.

  • 99.9% UV Protection: Prestige Ultra blocks virtually all damaging UV rays, the single largest cause of fading in floors, furniture, window treatments, and artwork. Protect your valuable interior furnishings from premature aging.

  • Clear Views: The film maintains a crystal-clear appearance, ensuring your spectacular Tampa views remain unobstructed.

Tampa Compares Window Film Vs. Buying New Windows Comparisons

Home owners facing inefficient windows and sliders will typically consider replacement with new higher performing glass systems.

These new windows will reduce heat and glare (if tinted) and will certainly improve heat loss and potentially enhance security.

Advanced Film Solutions is one of the largest window film installation companies in the USA.

Our thin film aftermarket solutions are applied to your existing windows and sliders making your windows energy efficient and secure than a window glass replacement at a fraction of the investment cost.

Considerations:

Our window film solutions performance characteristics are in many cases superior to a new window replacement.

These energy savings expectations are measured by the NFRC in the exact same testing measurements as a brand new window.

This means that you will improve your energy efficiency, glare rejection and UV elimination at a fraction of the cost of a window replacement.

Window film installed by Advanced Film Solutions is supported with a lifetime warranty against adhesive failure, peeling and de-lamination.

This is critically important because many consumers have a low opinion of window tinting based on their observation of failed car tinting that has turned purple or demonstrates bubbling or peeling particularly on rear windows.

Window film technology developed by 3M and Eastman Chemical for flat glass residential and commercial applications has eliminated these issues and these coatings are designed to be optically clear, durable and they will maintain their appearance and performance for decades.
