Tips For Selecting Tampa Heat Control UV Window Film, Choices Matter

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

We have demonstrated our capabilities throughout the 16 years and 26,000 installations since we launched our company.

Our experience prior to establishing Advanced Film Solutions was spent at 3M Company where we developed our window film experience as National Sales Manager.

Florida home and business owners have a unique set of requirements. We obviously have more heat, glare and sun days than any other region of the country.

Our goal was to separate ourselves from the competition by offering our clients the very best heat rejecting solutions. This is more than a subjective position.

There are fundamental performance characteristics of window film that position one window film solution as a superior choice compared to another.

These points of superior performance cover a wide array of variables:

  • Durability of the adhesives.
  • Clarity of the finished installed coating.
  • The appearance of the film in terms of reflectivity or non-reflectivity.

  • The NFRC rating of the film and anticipated performance, independently lab tested and certified.
  • The impact strength, puncture strength, etc. of the solar and clear security film

We know the advantages of one solution over another.

That’s why we offer multiple brand and product choices to match our customer’s requirements to their practical and aesthetic objectives.

In terms of installation capabilities we were determined to employ the very best installers with a proven track record and years of experience.

We are fortunate to have the very best installation team in Florida including two of the top eight installers in the world tinting competition held in West Palm Beach!

Fighting heat, glare and UV damage takes the very best window film and the top of the line installations.

Advanced Film Solutions meets that challenge every day!

Tampa Shatter Window Film, Safer Living, Covert Protection

Our team has protected the Sarasota International Airport as one prime example for blast protection.

Thicker security films are designed to hold glass in place particularly when reinforced with a attachment system that locks the glass into the frames around the glass.

Window Film Protects Tampa Bay Schools & Daycare Centers

Advanced Film Solutions has been protecting schools and day care centers throughout Tampa Bay, Orlando and Sarasota with security glazing window film.

These transparent coatings are thicker and the adhesive stronger than standard solar control window film.

Typically 8 ML thick, security glazing window film is designed for maximum impact strength, tensile strength and puncture resistance.

There are instances when a privacy security film should be considered during a lock down event or safe room situation.

These films will provide visibility from the interior to the street but prevent targeting from the exterior.

The safety administrators for these institutions prefer the covert nature of these coatings.

The appearance of the school’s windows can remain unchanged or if they prefer a lightly tinted coating for energy savings and glare reduction.

The objective is to keep the “bad guys” out and security glazing window film maintains the window envelope.

These films are the very same coatings used on the US Capitol Building and embassies throughout the world.

Tampa Window Film Vs. Buying New Windows Comparisons

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

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.
