ADVANCED FILM SOLUTIONS

Clear, Durable & Effective Tampa Bay, Orlando Window Film Solutions

Advanced Film Solutions is the leading window film installation company in the Tampa Bay, Orlando, and Sarasota region of Florida.

It has taken more than a decade of success as a family owned business to reach this high level of performance.

In fact, Advanced Film Solutions has been one of the top 15 window film businesses in the entire country the last seven years as documented in Window Film Magazine.

It is important that our potential clients understand that we are providing thin film applications on existing windows and glass doors and sliders that stop heat, glare and UV.

These films are durable and optically transparent, and our clients select just how dark or light they want their rooms to be during the daytime.

There may be an element of skepticism concerning the effectiveness or durability of window film solutions out in the collective consciousness of the consumer’s mind.

This negative perception is based on the purple, bubbling tint they see on some cars on our roads.

The thought is: “if this is what is going to happen to my window film, I’d rather take my chances with the clear glass I already have!”

We understand.

There was a time when window tinting was made using dyes and less than durable adhesives. These films wouldn’t last very long, peeled and bubbles while turning purple. Even today some cheaply made tints can have the same result.

Advanced Film Solutions will only install stable, lifetime warranted coatings manufactured by Eastman Chemicals. These thin films won’t peel, bubble or change color.

These coatings are distortion free and do exactly what we say they will do as documented by the NFRC in independent testing.

Our clients have their expectations matched or exceeded every time.

We won’t settle for anything less.

Advanced Film Solutions has performed more than 32,000 installations throughout the Tampa Bay, Orlando and Sarasota region as well as commercial windows throughout the south east USA.

We are dedicated to solving the problems of overheated rooms, flying debris and faded furnishings.

Solar & Safety Window Film Benefits for Summer, 2023

Through the previous six decades, window film has been demonstrated to provide protection for life and property safety.

Thicker mylar films hold glass in place against impact from intrusion, winds, and blast.

The efficacy of shatter window film has been tested in real world experience and quantified through independent testing by the GSA and the US Department of Defense for force protection on Federal buildings and embassies.

The bottom line is that shatter control window film does reduce the risk of smashed glass and flying debris particularly when the window film is properly attached to the window or slider frames using a wet sealant system.

Advanced Film Solutions team of installers are experts in the installation of thick clear and solar combination window film.

There are aesthetic differences in shatter window film in terms of light transmission and reflectivity.

Clear films are utilized for security objective only while combination solar safety films are used for the security benefit as well as privacy and heat plus glare rejection.

Advanced Film Solutions installs Eastman Chemical’s tested films from LLumar, Vista and SunTek. We also represent Madico films and Avery Dennison Hanita films for specific projects and specifications.

Homeowners who are interested in improving their security protection to reinforce glass openings against impact would be wise to consider the combination solar safety films since there will be an improved return on investment in lowered electric cooling costs and comfort.

Protecting Homes One Window At A Time. Advanced Film Solutions

Protecting your home from burglary or shattered glass requires critical thinking and preparation.

You should start by considering that your home’s windows and sliders are the weakest entry points for burglars!

Our security films delay, deny and deter entry!

Security glazing window film is a primary element for improving your home security.

Thieves recognize that glass windows and sliders are the easiest point of entry into your home.

Glazing protection film makes an easy break-in much more difficult by holding the glass in place.

These thicker coatings (typically 8 ML) are available in clear versions as well as a host of tinted alternatives ranging in light transmissions and appearance.

Many homeowners considering a solar control UV solution can opt for these thicker versions of solar films that also provide energy savings along with the built in security benefits of protective films.

Delaying and denying entry will let law enforcement respond in time from your alarm systems and this will deter theft.

Sun Control Safety Security Window Film, Tampa Bay, Orlando, Sarasota

We look through windows every day, but it’s easy to overlook the safety risks they present.

When windows or sliders shatter, serious injuries can result.

Injuries can occur from opening or closing the window or pushing on it too hard; sometimes they occur without any contact at all.

Use Shatter Retention Window Film to Reduce the Risk of Shattering

The aftermarket  installation of thick clear or solar safety film in windows with which impact is likely, such as floor-length windows, sliders, doors containing glass, or windows in common areas of residence halls or crowded hallways is critically important.

Advanced Film Solutions is expert in the proper installation and anchoring of shatter film.

This specialized capability has been acquired over decades of installation experience.  It is a serious obligation to leave every installation with the assurance that the window film was properly installed according to manufacturers specifications.

The choice of film:

Advanced Film Solutions has successfully installed shatter film at thousands of homes and offices, retail stores and educational institutions to name a few.

Our experience at 3M for 33 years and more recently the last 16 years since we launched our family owned window film dealership.

We have developed a long respectful relationship with multiple security film manufacturers all of whom have demonstrated safety efficacy and optical clarity and long-term durability.

Beyond that; these safety films have all met the objective criteria of independent testing conducted by Federal agencies like the GSA and Department of Defense.

The health and life safety performance of the Eastman, Madico, Saint-Gobain, Avery Dennison and 3M are equivalent.

The differences are specifically related to the aesthetic variations including light transmission, clarity, reflectivity from the exterior view or the interior view.

Our experience and industry knowledge guide our consulting direction and we have found the LLumar and Vista security and solar films as the most flexible in meeting client expectations. This is not to say that these films meet a higher safety level but rather these films match our client’s aesthetic preferences.

Glass safety in homes and commercial government buildings is a critical issue.

Schools, religious institutions, retail stores and government buildings have all employed these shatter films to protect students, teachers, parishioners and visitors.

The time to implement glass protection window film is now!
