There are several religious facilities that clearly have a higher threat level than others.

Let’s be frank.
 


Muslim and Jewish Houses of Worship receive more threats and have unfortunately a greater risk level in these difficult times.

 How thicker security films work to control flying glass?

Thicker safety and security films have been used effectively for decades.

The Federal Government and internationally governments and large corporations are very familiar with these transparent security systems.

Glass is the weakest link in your perimeter protection planning.  Blast protection, flying debris and vandalism can create a dangerous environment for parishioners and visitors.

The window film system consists of thicker window films (8 ML and thicker) attached to the frames using wet sealant Dow 995 or mechanical attachment systems.


Many of these films are also available in solar versions that can reduce the heat gain in your facility as well as provide daytime privacy for occupants.

We represent the leading fragment retention film solutions in the industry:

Tampa Gets Cool With LLumar Advanced Film Solutions

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.

Tampa Glass Solutions. Ceramic Window Film Keeps Glare & Heat Away

Leave a reply

Business owners want to do something about the heat, UV and glare hitting their windows, but they are concerned about preserving their curb appeal.

1. They don’t want shoppers thinking they are closed!

2. They want window shoppers to browse their displays and enter that store! This makes that cash register ring! That’s CURB APPEAL!

3. They want security and visibility in case there is a hold-up (sadly this is a major concern, just read the morning newspaper)

We have the solutions and we guaranty that it won’t cost you an arm and a leg!

Advanced Film Solutions offers Huper Optik ceramic non-reflective films that will cut the heat but never block your shoppers offering a clear unobstructed view through your storefront windows!

These films work differently than the darker, reflective films you might be familiar with.

Lightly tinted but no metals, no reflection and no interference with wireless communications, Bluetooth or cell phones!

These Huper Optik ceramic eliminate 99.9% of the UV that damages your merchandise (clothing, carpets, cards, virtually any material that the Sun destroys over time.)

Ceramic Films block the heat by a factor of nearly 66% in some versions, less on the very modestly tinted selections like our very light transmission film.

The Huper Optik color is pure, and optically clear. 

There are no color changes or shift to blue, that we  find in nano-layered films, and our cost is more than competitive.


We also offer security shatter film versions of our film that are 8 times thicker than their solar control versions. 

These thicker fragment retention version will help in smash and grab crime situations.

If you have a retail storefront or restaurant, we have the perfect solution for you to consider!

Have we made ourselves, clear enough??
