Are you having glare problems in your home or business offices?
This article is about a customer of ours who was having glare issues in their home in the high desert area of Albuquerque, New Mexico. Since we specialize in antiglare window films, as well as a variety of other window film products, they called us to help figure out how to solve their problem.
Moreover, their glare problem was compounded by problems with excessive heat, which was making their home uncomfortable. But the main issue was in the living room. Throughout the day, the sun was beaming in through the windows and shining onto the TV, making it very hard to see. Instead of putting up blackout drapes or another type of window treatment, like shutters or blinds, they were looking for a solution that would keep the view intact.
Window treatments can help the situation, but they won’t completely stop the glare and overheating problems. Specialty window tinting films filter out unwanted sunlight and heat before it enters the home, whereas window treatments will stop or block sunlight once it is already passed all the way through the windows and into the room or space.
The specialty window tinting films that we use filter out unwanted sunlight using tiny precious metal particles embedded in the film. In most situations, the goal is to allow a certain amount of light in while blocking unwanted sunlight like ultraviolet rays, and also blocking excessive solar heat.
Ultraviolet rays are always bad, so we use window films that block out 99.9% of the total amount of UV rays. This is the highest available rejection rate that you will find available in the market.
Solar heat, on the other hand, can be varied to block a small amount or a large amount, depending on the particular situation. For example, if the home is located in a cooler area, or perhaps in the mountains, a homeowner may not want to block all of the solar heat. They may prefer to allow some or most of the solar heat in to help keep the home warm. On the other end of the spectrum, homeowners in a completely different environment, like Dan and Paulette who live in the high desert, typically want to block as much solar heat as possible. In this case, the film that we applied for Dan and Paulette blocks about 98% from the sun, making their living room a very comfortable place to relax.
The specialty films that we install are manufactured by Huper Optik, who is recognized as the world leader in nano ceramic window films. We are the preferred dealer for the Albuquerque, NM area, so if you have any questions about Huper Optik and their product line, just give us a call. We are a full-service window tinting company, specializing in solar control, as well as security films, decorative films and energy-saving solutions. If you have any questions, we would be more than happy to help you in any way that we can.
