Window Film USA For Prestige Homes Everywhere



Many homeowners want the benefits of a solar control energy savings window film installation but they set against any product that will alter the look of their windows.

In addition many gated communities and HOA's prohibit the installation of reflective films as part of their deed restrictions.

Reflective films are extremely effective against glare and heat gain but in darker light transmissions they can make your glass look like mirrors from the exterior perspective.

Window Film USA and Advanced Film Solutions offers the most complete line of nanoceramic films in the USA.


We compete head to head with 3M and their prestige film lines either sold by a 3M window film dealer or any number of home depot agents and blind companies.

Let's assume you have a quote from one of their agents and you are looking for better value and performance.

Here's our position:

  • We always recommend that you do your homework and confirm the heat rejection performance by referring to the NFRC website. All of our window film selections have been quantified and verified by independent lab testing. 

    This is critically important since you may be under the false impression that the 3M prestige film is blocking more heat than it actually does.
  • We have heard inaccurate statements that infer this film blocks 97% of the heat, or consumers have seen a heat lamp demo that seems too good to be true.

    It is.

  • Working better at an angle.

    All window films and glass will appear to block more heat when the Sun is at an angle to the glass. This is nothing unique to the 3M window film. Pure and simple that claim is complete nonsense.

  • Appearance: The prestige film tends to shift the light toward the blue spectrum. This film also can appear iridescent particularly under various lighting systems.

  • Prestige has dyes that will fade after use. Hard coat issues are also well known as the product can scratch easily and haze.

  • Cost: Nationally the installation cost can vary by market.

Window Film USA has built our portfolio to compete and handily win against this 3M film.

Here is a sampling of our selections:


Manufactured in Germany, Huper Optik is arguably the finest solar window film in the industry. The film is available in several light transmissions and all are non dyed with a durability that far exceeds the prestige performance.




Vista is available in many different light combinations. They offer spectrally selective films and a host of dual reflective films.



EnerLogic 70:

One of the most remarkable performance features of EnerLogic is its unique year-round ability to reflect non-solar radiant heat back towards its source. In summer, EnerLogic film helps keep the solar heat out, just like traditional window film.

However, EnerLogic’s advanced low-e coating improves window insulating performance, also significantly reducing non-solar heat gain through windows, for an additional cooling-savings boost compared to standard films.

In the winter, EnerLogic does what standard films can’t do: It helps lock heat inside. So you get a perfect balance of energy efficiency, comfort, and
cost savings—all year long.
