UV Protection For your windows

It is said that in Colorado we have over 300 days of sunshine a year. Along with that sunshine comes  the harmful UV rays that cause our floors and furnishings to loose their new look and become old and faded looking before their time.

Did you know that all of our sun control window films are effective against harmful UV rays. In fact, most block as much as 99% of the damaging rays. So, whether you select a dark or a light product, you will get the same UV reduction.

Since UV is not the only reason our furnishings fade from the sun, it is important to consider a window film that will reduce "some" light for the best results.
 
 
For those that wish ONLY to block UV without a "tinted" look we offer our clear Museum Film. Optically clear, this unique window film product blocks out 100% of the UV light.

Control the Glare and Keep Your View


This Evergreen homeowner had so much sun entering their windows that they could not see their TV for several hours a day. One solution was to have window coverings installed. But that would block their view and cost a small fortune because of the size and shape of the windows.

To help reduce the bright glare the selected Optivision 15. The window film was just what they needed. They told me they could tell the difference before I was even finished installing the film. In the top photo, the window on the right and lower windows do not have the film on them. It's easy to see the difference. The bottom photo shows all of the top windows treated.


 
There's a Clear View window film just right for your home!
 

Archive Room in Arvada Gets Makeover

The ARCHIVE ROOM in Olde Town Arvada is well known for their great food and service. Well, the owners have decided to give the place a new look with a great new menu. If you live in Arvada or just in the area, drop in and check out their new look.


One of the changes made was to accent the bar area windows with a red frost window film. With the kitchen just on the other side of the windows, this film was selected to obscure the view into the kitchen and brighten up the bar area.

Pay a professional OR Do it yourself?

Let me start by saying..... "If you don't care what it looks like when you are done..... anybody can do it". Like many things, a quality window film installation requires skill. Many do it yourself'ers find it often proves to be more daunting than originally anticipated.

There are a number of factors that come play.

  1. Quality of the product. There are a few window films that can be bought at the hardware store and on line.Problem is..... the overall quality of the product. Most major manufacturer's only sell their products through professional installers, like Clear View. That leaves the consumer with seconds and low rated products from overseas. This also means you receive no warranty.
  2. Proper application. As previously mentioned, installing window film takes skill. Mistakes come easy and material is wasted if the installation is not handled properly. This includes preparing the glass. Once the film is applied to the glass, it cannot be removed and reapplied.
  3. Warranty. When you do it yourself, there is no warranty. This includes a warranty on the glass. Yes, window film can cause glass to break! If you install the wrong film on the wrong type of glass chances are you are destined for a broken window. At Clear View, we only use approved products for Colorado windows. We also provide a warranty, on many installations, that covers each window up to $500 should it break.
Clear View Window Tinting provides expert installation of a wide variety of window film products. So, before you waste your time and money, give Clear View a call for a free on site estimate.
