![]() Most homeowners consider window tinting to add style and sun protection. But there's more. Many consider tinting windows to save on utility bills because 30% of a typical home’s heating and cooling are lost due to the airflow coming from a window, and a good portion of it is lost by the heat flowing through the glass. While replacing old windows with energy-efficient ones is an option, a practical and more affordable solution is to place residential window tinting on them. Here we consider the advantages of window tinting residential homes. Advantages Of Residential Window Tinting Window tinting can aid in preventing heat from escaping during the cold months. These films can act as an extra layer of insulation to prevent heat loss while still providing enough visible light to go inside the room. You may want to use your air conditioner more than usual during the warmer months to keep the house cool. Window tint can block 99% of the harmful ultraviolet rays that can come inside your home. It also helps keep extreme heat from getting in, allowing your room to stay cooler even when it is hot outside. Other Advantages of Window Tinting Aside from sun protection, it prevents further sun damage to the furniture within your house. Constant exposure to UV rays can cause premature deterioration of your furniture and sensitive electronics. Window privacy films also provide security to your home as they act like a one-way mirror. Those inside the home can see outside, while those outsiders won’t see what is inside your home. Also, the film's adhesive fortifies the glass window, making a strong deterrence to break-ins and reducing the risk of broken glass injury in case of an accident. Comments are closed.
