Installing a solar control film for your windows offers a range of advantages that enhance both the comfort and value of your home. It’s more than just a thin layer on your glass; it’s a high-performance upgrade that works around the clock to improve your living environment. From cost savings to increased privacy, the benefits are clear. Here’s a closer look at what you can expect when you install solar control window film

  • Solar film can block a significant amount of solar heat from entering your home, which means your air conditioning system doesn’t have to work as hard to maintain a comfortable temperature. This translates directly to lower energy bills, especially during the hot Iowa summers.

  • Standard windows block some UV rays, but solar control film can block up to 99% of harmful ultraviolet radiation. This protects your family’s skin and prevents your furniture, flooring, and artwork from fading over time.

  • By reducing heat and glare, window film solar control creates a more pleasant indoor environment. You can enjoy natural light without squinting or dealing with uncomfortable temperature fluctuations from room to room.

  • Certain types of solar film can add a layer of privacy to your home during the day without sacrificing your view of the outside world. This is an excellent solution for windows that face the street or a neighbor’s house.

  • Window film can also add a layer of security by holding shattered glass together in case of accidental breakage or impact, reducing the risk of injury.
