Window Retrofit Glass Tinting Best ROI, Advanced Film Solutions

We can stare at the stars and dream of solutions that may someday provide energy savings but that electric bill from TECO or Duke Energy keeps on arriving in your mailbox so it might be a good time to put those pipe dreams behind.

Heating and cooling are a home’s most expensive systems, typically chewing up 48 percent of the utility budget, according to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)

Window film retrofits:

  • Window films are proven technologies that are available right now!
  • Window Films have documented performance values confirmed by the NFRC (no hyperbole, gimmicks, sun lamps.)
  • Cooling and heating costs savings are also well documented. Anticipated energy cost savings of 30% are realistic.

  • The aesthetic appearance of your home windows need not change thanks to selections that are clear and light with lower reflection than you existing glass reflection.
  • Installation is typically a one day project conducted by expert factory trained technicians.
  • Solar films are geared to filtering out heat and UV. Glare control is also a benefit. Consumers should also consider thicker dual benefit safety and security coatings. These are thicker iterations of the solar films that delay, deter and deny criminal entry.

  • The warranty for today’s window film is lifetime and our glass warranty provides assurance that matches any pre-existing window warranty.
  • The ROI of window film in Florida has been documented to provide the fastest return of any home improvement aftermarket product.

Tampa 2025, Compares Window Film Retrofit Vs. Buying New Windows

nutty

Many Florida homeowners suffer through long hot summers with clear single pane glass windows and sliders.

replace

Heat streams in unabated and UV damages furnishings and wood floors.

 

Glare creates impossible to watch TV screens and computers and electric bills are higher than ever before.

If you aren’t familiar with today’s solar control window film coatings you might be persuaded by some window replacement company to invest in a complete replacement.

should

No window replacement company will detail the following FACTS:

  1. The payback for IG insulated Glass units or Low E windows may take 25 years.
  2. Many of the replacement windows do nothing to filter out harmful UV rays.
  3. The very best IG units typically stop slightly more than 50% of the heat.
  4. Unless you have significant air leaks the physical properties of your window frames did not require replacement.
  5. IG units are typically clear glass so you’ll still suffer with glare and eye strain.

There may be a better way to solve your window problems.

Advanced Film Solutions Window Film

  1. All coatings are NFRC certified so the guess-work is removed when it comes to performance.
  2. Our coatings filter 99.9% of the UV
  3. Our coatings come with a lifetime warranty.
  4. Your ROI will be less than 2 years because window films cost roughly 1/10 that of replacing your windows!
