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

Tampa area homeowners face many challenges throughout the year.

The tropical temperatures bake our homes and offices which results in high electric cooling costs.

There is also a growing number of home invasions and burglary throughout the region.

Advanced Film Solutions with offices throughout Tampa Bay, Clearwater, St. Pete, Sarasota and Orlando help clients address these two disparate issues with the application of solar security window films on doors, sliders and ground level windows.

Your unprotected glass is an easy point of entry for thieves. Our thicker security films serve to deny, deter and delay entry.

This precious time provides law enforcement more time to respond to alarms and you more time to react.

Our window film security coatings are available in clear versions as well as dozens of combination solar safety films.

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.

Solar safety window film is the choice for asset protection managers who protect retail stores, schools and Federal offices throughout the state.

Homeowners can also benefit from these incredible cost-effective solutions!

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.

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.

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.

Advanced Film Solutions is Florida’s leading installer of high security impact window films.

Today’s unfortunate challenges for student and faculty protection are the driving force for these installations.

Competitive Edge, Window Film For Tampa Bay Consumers

The window film business has been around since the 1960’s and you would be correct in assuming that given the tropical climate here in Florida there might be many window film companies to meet the demand.

Advanced Film Solutions began our path to becoming Florida’s number one window film company in 2007.

Prior to this launch we worked for 3M for 33 years. Our experience as south east sales executive and national sales manager for 3M window film was a strong foundation for this fledgling business.

The competitive landscape in 2007 was a daunting challenge.

Our goal was to develop our business from the ground floor by offering the best performing selections of window film using the best installers in the Tampa Bay region.

Advanced Film Solutions has grown during these last nearly 16 years.

We have built the best team of fully trained and experienced installers.

Our film portfolio has grown as well as we have adapted our product solutions to include the NFRC certified films manufactured by Eastman Chemical, Avery-Dennison, Madico, Saint-Gobain and 3M Fasara and Scotchcal.

Our customers matter. Meeting their expectations is the main objective because growth depends on our reputation and positive referrals.

The need in Florida for cooling solar and solar safety films is acute. Advanced Film Solutions is there for you and is ready to make your home comfortable and safe.
