2024, Tampa Bay’s Most Experienced Window Tinting Solutions

Leave a reply

Hot and humid weather is the rule here in the Tampa Bay-Orlando-Bradenton Sarasota region.

 

Most homeowners rely on their air conditioning for at least 9-10 months a year. 

Home and business cooling costs have increased during the last decade and there is little to suggest that this will change any time soon.

Most homes have single pane glass.

Unfortunately these window systems allow UV, light and heat (of course!) to enter the living space.

This means: hot spots, glare and faded furnishings.

 

Homeowners consider blinds or shades as their first line of defense against the heat. While terrific for privacy they simply don’t stop the solar heat gain or UV.

Replacing windows with insulated glass is an expensive proposition.

Payback for window replacement takes more than 15 years and the heat reduction isn’t nearly as profound as a window film solution.

Advanced Film Solutions installs the innovative solar control window films  manufactured by the world leading Eastman Performance Films.

Since we improve the performance of your existing windows the cost for this energy transformation is much less than a window replacement. Typically 1/10 that cost!hu

Designed for durability and incredibly optical clarity these films are backed by a lifetime warranty!


Ingenuity defines our window film portfolio and our expert installers have been awarded Angie’s List Super Service Award for 9 years.

Start 2024 with the perfect solution.

This is the obvious question and Advanced Film Solutions with offices throughout Florida and resources throughout the USA relies upon the world leading manufacturers of safety and security glazing films.

LLumar

Armorcoat

Madico

Suntek

Hanita

Mylar coatings manufactured by Eastman Chemical LLumar, Saint-Gobain Armorcoat, Madico, Hanita Safety Zone, SunTek have all been independently tested to meet the following building safety criteria:

There are numerous advantages for the retrofit application of these coatings.  The practical ease of installation means your property gets immediate protection for the existing windows and entry doors.

Given the considerable budget amount required and capitol expense for replacing the glass with laminated safety windows the ROI of window film is exceptional.

These films are used on military bases, army recruiting offices and Federal buildings throughout the USA.

These very same coatings protect major retail stores as well as landmark buildings throughout the world.

The coatings Advanced Film Solutions installs are exactly the same thickness with exactly the same attachment systems.

Considerations:
 


While we are focused on life safety issues it should also be noted that these coatings are available in tinted versions that will lower utility costs, eliminate UV and earn local rebates from power companies. 

These coatings serve to “green” your home or facility and may qualify for grants and Federal tax incentives.

The solar control versions meet the same level of security as the clear versions so you will not be sacrificing safety.

Advanced Film Solutions provides free estimates and our track record, decades of experience and attention to meeting clients requirements is unequaled in the state of Florida.
