WHY DO YOU NEED WINDOW FILM ON YOUR WINDOWS?
Adding Window Film upgrades your existing windows by improving energy efficiency, cutting glare, and reducing damage to furniture due to fading. It also helps make occupants feel more comfortable within a home or commercial building.
IS WINDOW FILM LEGAL FOR MY VEHICLE?
Window film laws vary by the State in which your vehicle is registered. Please refer to your State laws to determine the window film legal limits in your area.
IS RESIDENTIAL OR COMMERCIAL WINDOW FILM EXPENSIVE?
Professionally installed residential window film or commercial window film can start around $10 per square foot, with the cost going up for the most advanced films, like our Select line which offers the highest performance with the least reflection in the world. This is typically only 5-10% of the cost of window replacement depending on the application.
IS APPLYING WINDOW FILM SAFE FOR MY WINDOWS? WON'T IT CAUSE GLASS BREAKAGE OR SEAL FAILURE?
The installation of window films is very safe. Manufacturers provide our installers with a list of recommended applications they are confident are safe when the recommendations are followed. Plus, most manufacturers provide warranties against glass breakage and seal failure. Ask your Window Film Pro for specifics about these warranties.
DOES THE INSTALLATION OF ENERGY-SAVING WINDOW FILM AFFECT THE PERFORMANCE OF MY BUILDING'S HVAC SYSTEM?
According to U.S. Department of Energy statistics, solar heat gain through windows is responsible for about one third of a building’s cooling costs. Energy-saving window film that can reduce solar heat gain by 75% or more can significantly reduce the run time of air-conditioning systems or allow them to operate at lower load conditions. This can reduce cooling costs in commercial buildings by as much as 30%, lengthen HVAC equipment life, lower maintenance costs for air-conditioning systems, and allow for replacement of cooling equipment with smaller, less expensive equipment.
WILL WINDOW FILM DARKEN THE INTERIOR OF MY HOME?
No. Window Film will maintain the natural colors of your interior spaces. With less need for draperies, curtains, blinds, and shades, rooms may actually brighten significantly.
CAN I RECEIVE A TAX CREDIT FOR INSTALLING ENERGY EFFICIENT WINDOW FILMS?
A tax credit directly reduces your income tax, unlike a deduction, which reduces the amount of income subject to tax. The credit then directly increases the tax refund you receive or decreases the amount you have to pay. You can learn more by checking out the link located HERE.
CAN WINDOW FILM HELP REDUCE THE GLARE ON MY TELEVISION AND COMPUTER SCREENS?
Absolutely. Window film reduces glare and helps eliminate eye fatigue.
WHY IS WINDOW FILM NECESSARY IF OTHER WINDOW TREATMENTS ARE ON THE WINDOWS?
The sun will often damage window treatments such as draperies, curtains, blinds and shades. Window film helps protect furnishings, including window treatments.
DOES WINDOW FILM HELP REDUCE THE HEAT IN A ROOM WHEN THE SUN COMES SHINING THROUGH?
Yes. Up to 75% of the heat is rejected by Window Film. You need not be afraid of installing beautiful windows for fear of too much heat.
CAN WINDOW FILM BE INSTALLED ON ODD-SHAPED WINDOWS?
Yes. Window Film is professionally installed and can fit virtually any size and shape of flat-glass window.
HOW LONG WILL WINDOW FILM LAST?
Most professionally installed flat glass window films come with a residential lifetime warranty and 10 year commercial warranty against cracking, peeling, adhesive failure or demetallizing. In addition, most quality, professionally installed automotive window films have a lifetime warranty.
