Window films are a cost effective retrofit opportunity to enhance the comfort of your home or office
How does it work?
WINDOW WITHOUT FILM
WINDOW WITH FILM
What are the benefits?
Our range of films can reduce up to 80% total solar energy, 99% UV radiation and 90% glare, whilst still allowing in ambient natural light and not obstructing your view.
Glazing can account for 49% heat loss and 87% heat gain in a building envelope.
Window film is an inexpensive and immediate solution for home energy efficiency.
“Window films are a more cost effective retrofit opportunity for homes than other measures” - Energy
Analysis for window films applications in new & existing homes & offices, IWFA, 2012.
Window film can reject as much as 80% solar energy – equal to the highest performing glass, at a fraction of the cost.
How will I save on energy costs?
Tinting improves the insulating properties of your buildings glass, therefore creating a more efficient building envelope.
More effective building envelope reduces heating & cooling demand
Enhance your home / work environment
Window tinting can reduce the temperature in direct sunlight by as much as 12° as well as eliminating 90% of glare, creating a much more comfortable environment for both the home & office
DRYING TIME
In the days after tint application, it is common to see bubbles in the film. This is because the water molecules are affected by their natural surface tension, which makes them want to group together to form a bubble.
Don’t panic – The water and the film will evaporate over time. The rate at which it escapes is called the vapour transmission of the films. Temperature, direct sun exposure, wind & humidity will impact the drying time.
CLEANING WINDOW FILM
To maximise the life of the window film, please follow these instructions for proper care and maintenance.
- 30 days after installation you can clean your windows if desired
- A soft, damp chamois or microfibre cloth is recommended for general cleaning.
- Use a mild dishwashing liquid for removal of greasy marks
- Do not use abrasive cloths, brushes or powder on the film. Do not use ammonia based or other strong cleaning products
