Transforming unprotected glass at ground level windows and entry ways to security impact glazing has become a priority given the recent violence.

 

There are many security improvements that can be implemented but one of the most affordable and easiest to implement is the professional application of thicker (minimum 8 ML) shatter control safety films to harden the building envelope.

Advanced Film Solutions offers the leading security glazing film solutions in the world. Our selections meet blast criteria for the Federal Government GSA and DOD.

These coatings and associated attachment systems are currently installed on landmark buildings throughout the world and schools, university and college campuses, and daycare centers throughout the USA.

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.
These ingenious solutions factor out 99.9% of the UV and depending upon the light transmission you select, our coatings can block 80-85% of the solar heat.

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.

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.

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.
