Huper Optik Window Tint Wins The Battle In Tampa Orlando

The battle for consumer and commercial customers was waged between the Ceramic Technology of Huper Optik versus the multi-layered optical film from 3M (Prestige.)
 


Huper Optik had the head start in high performance non metallic window films while 3M introduced their film in 2005.

The non reflective window films differ from the classic versions of sputtered metal films in several respects.  These films are not shiny or reflective which suits deed restricted communities and is the preferred aesthetic requirement of many homeowners and businesses.



Metal films offer privacy and are very effective in heat rejection, but they alter the "look" of your glass.

Heat is not being reflected, the mechanism for accomplishing the heat reducing objectives can be found in the ability of these films to reject infrared (invisible) heat.  Our associate VClimber has covered this topic extensively in his windowfilmonline blog.

Which film has won this consumer battle?

The NFRC Certified ceramic films by Huper Optik!

  • The Huper Optik 30 ceramic film qualify for window film rebates being offered by TECO and Progress Energy. Prestige films do not qualify.

  • The Huper Optik optical clarity as compared to prestige is a sure winner. Side by side comparisons are not even close.

  • The Huper Optik film does not alter the hue of the light streaming through the glass. Prestige has a distinct blue-ish shift (perhaps that Blue Butterfly motivated them a tad too much?)

  • The Huper Optik hard coat is superior when compared to prestige. The color of the film is consistent and can not be easily scratched off.

  • Huper Optik Ceramic films are multi-layered and patented. There are a host of single ply films made in Arizona being resold under a number of brand names.  This includes 3M's re-boxed single layer ceramic film. The obvious limitations of these single layer films are narrow width and exterior reflectivity. Price considerations certainly are significant since the knock off 3M film seems to be priced at the same levels as the patented superior performing Huper Optik!
We'll show you why our Huper Optik Ceramic Films won the battle in Florida and throughout the USA!

    I have huper optik ceramic 30 on my home. It doesn't qualify for TECO rebate. The shading coefficient must, at least, fall between .40-.45 to satisfy TECO. Ceramic 30 falls at .47. The lower the number, the better. Just for those who are interested in the truth.

      The shading coefficient of ceramic 30 is .43 and does certainly qualify.

      Re-read this from TECO site:
      • Window Film: Applying film to eastern and western exposed windows will help reduce solar heat gain and may qualify you to receive $1 per square foot, up to $200 if the minimum shading coefficiency is .45 or less. In addition, the existing structure must have electric whole-house air conditioning. After window film is installed, download, print, complete and submit our Window Film form, including your invoice to receive your incentive.
