Window Tinting Gone Bad, Tampa’s Advanced Film Solutions

Leave a reply

Unfortunately most of the window tinting that was done in Florida in the 1970’s and 1980’s has gone bad.

Many films were dyed polyester films that you would expect in a low cost car tinting. 

These films looked terrific for awhile but the UV inhibitors degraded and the dyes migrated to purple or created optical distortion.
Some competitive films started off hazy and after years of being blistered by the SUN they are now impossible to see through!

 

No matter what cased the problem Advanced Film Solutions can remove this junk from your windows.

We would be happy to replace this mess with VISTA or Huper Optik Window Films that are warranted for a lifetime of enjoyment and energy savings usage.

Removing film yourself requires a ton of work and time.

You don’t want to try using toxic chemicals in your home for obvious reasons.

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.

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.
