Residential and Commerical Window Film Page

"Flat" glass tinting provides many benefits to both commerical and residential customers.

  • Reduced Energy Costs
  • Reduced Fading
  • Added security
  • Daytime privacy

Every 100 square feet of film can reduce air conditioner load by 12,000 BTU. With rising energy costs this helps customers see a return on their window film investment in 3 to 5 years depending on climate.

Some window films also help reflect heat away from the window and back into the building. This helps reduce heating costs during winter months.

By blocking 98% to 99% UV light window films help protect your health and help reduce fading. UV light contributes to 40% of fading. Help protect and extend the life of your carpet, paint, wallpaper, and window treatments.

Contrary to popular belief, window film does not have to be dark. Films range in 15% to over 70%VLT (visible light tranmission). We can even install CLEAR film to block UV light! There are many films to choose from in both reflective and non-reflective styles.

We both also provide Safety and Security film installations to help deter smash and grabs, protect yourself and others from flying glass, and help prevent break-ins. We even have S&S films that we can fit to your vehicles too!

Both locations are now offering V-Kool and Geoshield ceramic films! Both films are high light transmission (70% VLT) but block over 50% of the heat! Plus, low reflectivity.

Houses aren't cool unless they're tinted!
