Temperature Control Window Film

Increase Comfort

Maintaining a comfortable interior temperature at home and at work is essential for optimal productivity and general well-being. Windows are the main avenue of heat loss and gain in homes and commercial spaces. During the warmer months, infrared rays entering your space cause unpleasant hotspots. Conversely, the warmth being produced by your heater during the winter escapes through the glass.

Temperature control film offers a cost-effective solution for managing this dichotomy with its heat-reflective and insulating properties. A single-pane window with window film has the insulation properties of an untinted double-pane window, and a tinted double-pane window acts like a triple pane window. At the same time, it is reflecting 97% of infrared rays from the sun.

Improve Energy Efficiency

Approximately 28% of cooling expenses result from the heat passing through windows. Window film repels up to 79% of the sun’s heat trying to pass through your windows, lowering the interior temperature of your space by up to 9℉ in areas of direct sunlight. By reducing solar heat gain, window film prevents cooling systems from having to work as hard to maintain the desired temperature. This reduces energy expenses and slows the wear and tear of your HVAC unit.

Temperature control film also reduces the need for artificial light. Since you don’t need to pull the shades or draw the blinds to keep out heat and glare, natural light can enter your space and illuminate your surroundings. This saves you money on electricity costs. Additionally, more natural light correlates with better morale and increased productivity. It also improves the aesthetics of your space.
