Tampa Gets Cool With LLumar Advanced Film Solutions

Leave a reply

The mature window tinting business that began over a half century ago has gone through many change since late 2008 when Eastman Films became the first company with NFRC Certification

The original window films back in the 1960’s and 1970’s had a limited life cycle because of the unstable dyes that were used in the manufacturing process.


This grew to become an industry still in search of credibility.

Even today you’ll see purple windows on homes, office buildings and retail stores.
Credibility is critically important and the game changer is the US Department Of Energy and their Energy Star program. 

For window films to become rated and approved the industry has had to develop standardized measurements independently lab tested and documented.

The NFRC provided the vehicle for this logical process and the leading window film companies driven by Eastman’s leadership have followed suit.

Consumers are looking for energy efficient solutions that can reduce their carbon footprint and save money on their electric bills. 

Now with NFRC rated films a consumer can narrow their choices to performance and aesthetics.

Certainly there are reflective films that provide privacy, UV rejection and superior heat rejection.

These films like VISTA and LLumar set the standard in low interior reflection and outstanding optical clarity.

 

Non-Reflective Ceramic Films like Huper Optik set the bar at the highest level for a non metal film that meets aesthetic requirements of any Home Owners Association and complies with Deed Restrictions.

We strongly endorse the NFRC and the independent credentials that will ultimately lead to Energy Star ratings

That’s why we always advise our clients to do their homework, check the ratings and beware outrageous claims about blocking 97% of the IR or heat or nonsense about working better at angles (after all all window films do!)

Beware phony BTU tests with rigged IR meters that only measure a narrow wavelength to give the illusion of performance.

Today’s facility manager has to be a jack of all trades.


Shrinking budgets, and economic concerns tightened budgets across the board.
Certainly sustainability and “greening ” of your facility are top of mind considerations but practical costs have to be measured and bench marked for realistic short and long term cost savings.

Energy costs are rising.

Energy costs are the second fastest growing expense area behind health care costs and are expected to increase as the economy recovers and companies increase their production.

Many of the low hanging fruit improvements have been implemented. (lighting upgrades, etc.)

The case for Vista , LLumar and Huper Optik Window Film:


Eastman Chemical has designed a suite of durable thin film coatings that retrofit your existing glass systems.

These films are built to last and life cycle ROI compares more than favorably to most energy upgrades.

These films are dye free so you will not experience fading of the films or dye migration changing the color of the film to purple. 

These films have scratch resistant coatings that protect the film from abrasion and day-to-day activity.

Vista Window Film is available in multiple light transmissions so the natural light can be maintained or adjusted based upon your facility requirements.

Additional considerations:
 
  • All Vista, LLumar films factor out 99.9% of the UV- This preserves interior carpeting, paintings and furnishings.

  • Glare control will improve worker productivity and comfort.
  • Demonstrable tenant satisfaction based upon this improved comfort and elimination of cold and hot spots throughout your entire facility.

  • Improved efficiency of your Hvac and chiller systems since heat gain is blocked at the glass!

  • Energy Rebates apply through your local power company. Progress Energy, TECO, FP&L all offer attractive commercial window film rebate incentives.
  • Significant reduction in your monthly energy costs.

A successful Property Manager has an obligation to keep their tenants happy.

Cold spots and poorly heat balanced buildings create tenant discomfort; and that can eventually result in a lost tenant.

 A buildings’ aesthetic appeal is also crucial. 


The appearance of a building; half opened blinds, clutter by the windows create poor curb appeal.
