NFRC Ceramic Huper Optik Window Film Comfort For Tampa’s Prestige Homes

Leave a reply

When we launched Advanced Film Solutions in early 2007 our plan was to offer Floridians the best selection of window films in the world.

1376459_644688805564594_133607022_n
 

Advanced Film Solutions has completed 24,000 flawless installations and in many of these homes and businesses our competition was 3M Window Film or one of their home depot and window genie’s agents.

Superior technology, performance, value and documented results!

In each critical category our films surpass our 3M competition.


Our Huper Optik films are available in a wide array of light transmission and thanks to the lower solar absorption rates than 3M’s prestige 40- we block more heat and glare than their film.

Our Huper Optik films are dye free.

This preserves the appearance of the film for a lifetime of enjoyment and our scratch coating protects your investment.

Both Huper Optik and prestige do a fine job in factoring out IR (invisible heat that makes up nearly 50% of what we associate as heat) Huper Optik isn’t pretending their film works better at an angle (because every film does as does glass itself)

We won’t trick you by showing a bogus IR lamp illusion that makes it appear our films block more heat than a silver metal film.

Advanced Film Solutions also recommends our Low E all season window film. This solution insulates your windows winter or summer by acting like a heat mirror.

The NFRC has leveled the competitive playing field by providing objectivity through documented independent lab tested performance characteristics.

This is our competitive edge- -FACTS!

If you are researching a window film solution that is non reflective (meets deed restrictions or HOA rules) than call Advanced Film Solutions for a free estimate and a direct comparison in performance and cost!

We win on the glass with superior value and clarity.

Shatter Security Glass Window Film Protection, Tampa Bay, Orlando

Leave a reply

The window film industry has been restricted from the mere mention of its potential use for wind storm mitigation.

bannersafety2

Given the industry small footprint and the lack of appetite to argue the merits of properly fastened shatter films; we have removed all mention of storms from any advertising.

(Frankly we had done so as far back as 2009-10)

Interestingly commercial buildings (second story and above) typically require that a storm mitigation device meet the ASTM 1886 or ASTM 1996 cycling and small and medium missile impact that our 8 ML films meet.

This includes the stringent Factory Mutual testing approvals that can lower a commercial businesses insurance premiums.

374639_315105961856215_1914254629_n

We take no issue with the states concerns about misleading advertising or their implication that somehow the mere mention of these films is taking advantage of the elderly.

 

Our thicker shatter films manufactured by Eastman Chemical (LLumar- Vista) ,  Madico, Suntek, Armorcoat and Avery-Dennison Hanita meet Department of Defense and GSA Blast load requirements. Various versions meet the UL972 impact testing and all meet ANSI97 requirements for safety glazing.

 LLumar Meets the Most Stringent Standards
 

Suitable for a broad range of applications, LLumar offers safety films meeting numerous certifications and test standards in the United States, Europe and around the world, including:

  • ANSI Z97.1 and CPSC 16 CFR 1201 Cat I and II

CN0FInYUcAAmmWT

General Services Administration (GSA) and United Facilities Criteria (UFC)

 

ASTM Large Missile Level C and Small Missile requirements
 

 

Underwriters Laboratory UL972 Forced Entry requirements
 

 

Factory Mutual FM Approvals 4350 Small Missile

EN356, level P2A

 Shatter glazing films (IWFA) are also being installed on school buildings throughout the nation.

Our team protects all K-12 public schools in Hillsborough County with Eastman’s Vista 28 8 ML window film

security-window-film-1

 

We have scores of shatter films that are available in solar combination versions that are effective against criminal intrusion and certainly accidental breakage and vandalism.

These coatings not only provide the security features but they also eliminate UV and make offices and homes cooler and energy efficient.

Bright Concepts Ceramic Window Film, Cools Tampa Bay

There has been a quiet evolution in thin film technology.

An evolution from the metalized sputtered films of the past to the nanoceramic films of the present and future.

IMG_20140718_092557_860
 

Techno babble aside, the key outcome is the ability to provide a virtually clear, lighter transmission window film that reduces dramatic amounts of heat from entering your home or office.

Now what determines “dramatic” is a key question and ultimately the answer depends upon your unique requirements and aesthetic stipulations.


Advanced Film Solutions installs the patented nanoceramic Huper Optik ceramic films.
