5 Benefits of Home Window Tinting

Homeowners often choose blinds, curtains, shutters or other window coverings in an effort to reduce the heat penetration or glare in their homes, but there’s a more efficient way. Residential window tint is an energy-efficient option that comes with many benefits, including protection, safety and aesthetics, which can help you reduce your energy bills and keep your home more comfortable.

According to the EPA Energy Star Buildings Manual in the United States, approximately half of a home’s utility bills are wasted by loss of heat and heat gain through untreated windows. Home window tinting can significantly improve energy efficiency. With a thin, virtually invisible addition to your home’s existing windows, window films can help you save up to 50% on cooling costs.

ENERGY CONSERVATION

Are you spending a fortune on air conditioning costs just to keep your home cool? According to the U.S. Department of Energy, up to 43% of a home utility bill goes to heating and cooling. As it was mentioned earlier, our tints help you save significantly on energy costs in your home. Installing window tint is also a more affordable alternative to replacing your windows. By allowing your home to be protected from the sun’s heat from our energy saving window films, the money you would spend to keep your home cool with air conditioning can be spent somewhere else. Ultimately, the savings that you will enjoy from our window tints will pay for themselves in your bills.

GLARE REDUCTION

Though it’s not something we usually consider, it is possible to get an unhealthy level of UV exposure from simply sitting in front of a window with a lot of sunlight coming through. Melanoma and other skin cancers are usually caused by UV radiation, which adds up over repeated exposure to sunlight. Because window tint blocks 99 percent of UV rays, you can have the peace of mind of knowing that you’re not exposing yourself to unnecessary UV damages inside your home.

UV PROTECTION

So, you can’t control when the sun shines, but you can control how protected you are from the sun’s harmful UV rays. Exposure to UV Rays is the leading cause of skin cancer and may also cause skin wrinkles. According to the Skin Cancer /Foundation, Window tint is recommended as part of a comprehensive skin care program. On top of that, UV rays can also cause your furniture to fade and deteriorate faster than normal. We offer numerous window tints that blocks more than 99% of all UV rays, ranging from light grey to the darkest titanium, that can protect you and your home from the suns UV rays while providing the look and style you desire.

SAFETY/SECURITY

Glass can be a real hazard in the home when broken from accidents, storms, or break-ins. Safeguard your family and your property with home safety window films. This transparent but powerful barrier helps hold glass in place should an impact occur, help keep an intruder out and help defend you against the unexpected.

PRIVACY

Many types of window films are available, with features ranging from additional UV protection to a tint that limits the view of your home from the exterior. If you’re looking for a little more privacy from people in the street, the right window film can shield the view from the outside and give you a better sense of privacy and comfort inside your home.
