Save on Energy Bills: While the sun is beneficial for life, its heat can definitely impact your home, especially if your windows are unprotected. The simple reason is that sunlight increases the amount of heat that enters your home. Window tint helps to reduce the amount of sunlight entering your home. This means that during warmer months, your HVAC system doesn’t have to work so hard. This helps to lower energy costs. What about during cooler months? Window tint acts as a layer of insulation, helping you to keep more of your heat inside. Window tint helps to save on energy bills all year round.

Improve Security: Creating a more secure home is a top priority for many homeowners, and window tint can help. Did you know that window tint can act as a barrier to your windows? Window tint can strengthen your windows in case of breakage. It holds the glass in place, reducing the risk of injury from glass fragments. Security window tint is even stronger than regular film. It is designed to slow forced entry, keep your family safe and reduce theft. It looks like regular window tint, so you won’t have to worry about window tint changing your home’s appearance.

Reduce Glare and Eye Strain: If you enjoy watching television, using a computer, playing games on your tablet, or watching videos on your phone, then you need window tint! By reducing glare from the sun, window tint makes it easier to enjoy all those screens with less eye strain. We often find that customers don’t realize how much the sun has been interfering with their screen use until after the window tint is installed. The glare reduction can be substantial.

Increase Privacy: Many homeowners state that safety, security, and privacy are top concerns. Our windows are the ‘eyes’ of our homes, but they also let eyes look into your home. This is another area where window tint can really improve your home and, quite frankly, your life. Privacy window films give you more control over what those outside your home see. There are several privacy window tints available. Some of them give you a modest layer of privacy, while others can block prying eyes completely. It’s really up to you.

UV Protection: If you are concerned about the sun’s impact on your furnishings and your skin, window tint is definitely a must-have. The sun produces UV rays that cause fading to art, flooring, furniture, and textiles. More importantly, UV rays can increase your risk of skin cancer. Window tint dramatically reduces the amount of UV radiation that enters your home. This prolongs the life of your furnishings and protects your skin.
