Can window film be installed when its cold?

I am often asked this very question. We do install window film when it is cold, however we do try to avoid "snow days". Since the film is installed using a water solution there is a chance of it freezing, therefore affecting the adhesive properties. If the sun is out, the water will not likely freeze.

UV Still Does Damage in the Winter

Often, we relate to summer months when we think about the sun and it's affects to our furnishings and flooring. But, did you know that UV rays are just as strong when it's cold outside? In many cases the sun light actually travels further into our home during the winter as the sun is lower to the horizon and shines more directly into windows.

Sun Gard window film will block up to 99% of the sun's harmful rays. We offer a number of films that are light and barely detectable that will add to the life of your wood floor, carpet or furniture.

Separating Fact From Fiction

I've read a number of ads with some pretty wild claims regarding window tinting for your home.

One post said window film will reduce your home's energy bill by 60%. While I wish this was true...It is Not true! In fact solar heat gain entering your windows only accounts for 40% of the heat entering your home. And even that is determined by the size and number of windows and the direction they face. A/c only contributes to 44% of a home's energy cost. If the film blocked 100% of the heat it still would not reduce energy by 60%. Buyer beware!

Another said the film would keep in 65% of heat in the winter. Once again, Not true! Traditional window film will only retain about 10% of the heat escaping through your windows. Window film IS NOT insulation. Some "Low-e" films will improve the winter performance... but not by 65%. Not even close!

Will Window Film Affect My View?


 
 I am often told "I don't want to lose my view". I couldn't agree more! Which is why window tinting is a better option to hiding behind closed blinds or shades. Some films are virtually invisible while others will actually enhance the view by reducing glare.
 
There are a variety of shades to choose from that will allow you to maintain your beautiful Clear View!
