NFRC Rated Window Tinting Ideal For Tampa Bay Homes

Leave a reply

Advanced Film Solutions is one of the busiest window film installation companies in the USA. 

Small wonder given the tropical climate and number of sunny days we enjoy in the Bay area. As we start 2023 the heat won’t be getting any better!

 

We differentiate our window film solutions from our competition by promoting window film that has been objectively tested and rated by the NFRC.

What is the NFRC and why is this important to an educated homeowner?

VISTA NFRC
 

NFRC is a non-profit organization that administers the only uniform, independent rating and labeling system for the energy performance of windows, doors, skylights, and attachment products.

Their goal is to provide fair, accurate, and reliable energy performance ratings so that:

•  Architects, builders, code officials, contractors, homeowners,
and others can compare different products and make informed
product choices.

•  Building officials, state government employees, and others involved
in code development and enforcement can determine if products
meet local codes.

•  Government-and utility-run energy efficiency programs can establish
performance requirements and standards.

•  Manufacturers have a fair and level playing field to compare products and an accurate method of showing the energy benefits of new designs or technology.

 
Advanced Film Solutions represents these NFRC rated films:
 
  • Vista Films
  • LLumar
  • 3M Fasara
  • Huper Optik
  • Solar Gard
  • Armorcoat Films (listed under Bekaert, but now a St. Gobain company)
  • Avery-Dennison Hanita
  • SunTek
  • Madico

Consumers can make educated choices and conduct apple to apple comparisons.

No gimmicks or hyperbole about IR rejection or working better at angles.

Tampa Advanced Safety Security Window Film

Leave a reply

There has been interest in perimeter protection anti-intrusion improvements in the wake of the Newtown, Sandy Hook tragedy and Parkland FL tragedies.

School administrators, campus security, parents and government officials are considering a holistic approach that weighs life safety issues against the implementation costs of building and glass hardening.

schol

Glazing security window film coatings have been used for nearly 50 years for improved glass hardening.

llumaradvanced

Federal guidelines were implemented after the Oklahoma City bombing to increase security through thicker shatter resistant fragment retention films.

Advanced Film Solutions, Window Film USA is an expert installer of these thicker window film enhancements.

These coatings are designed to withstand high impact and improve life safety against intrusion and blast events.

We represent the leading manufacturers of these impact resistant coatings:

Eastman Chemical marketed under the LLumar, Vista and Huper Optik brands.

Madico Safety Films

Saint-Gobain marketed as Armorcoat

SunTek

Hanita – Avery Dennison

Johnson

The minimum thickness recommended is 8 ML. This is the standard based upon the increased impact and tensile strength.

These coatings are attached to window frames using a variety of systems with the wet sealant silicone as the most prevalent and most cost efficient.

These coatings have been rigorously tested by the GSA, DoD and in several cases Factory Mutual. They also meet ANSI standards and in several instances the UL972 criteria.
Shatter resistant coatings are available in clear versions that provide maximum visibility.

 

It should be noted that there are solar control iterations of these films that meet the same level of security enhancement but additionally provide glare, energy cost efficiency and privacy (where security officials recommend)

430208_352608111439333_1244046707_n

These solar versions offer a ROI for reduction in energy costs as well as improved student productivity with lower glare and more comfortable facilities.

Energy control versions may also qualify for rebates from local power companies.

Tampa, Orlando Security Window Film, 2023

Whether you operate your own business at one of Tampa or Orlando’s office parks, or own your own retail store, it’s critical for your security planning to harden the glass at your building.

security-window-film-1
Advanced Film Solutions provides thicker (impact rated and tested) glazing window film manufactured by global leaders Eastman Chemical, Saint-Gobain and Madico.

These coatings protect our armed forces and diplomats throughout the world and domestically they are employed on Federal buildings state and municipalities and the leading retail chain stores.

There are scores of choices that cover a wide range of light transmissions and appearances.

prepare

Many retailers prefer a completely transparent coating that eliminates UV without lowering light levels.

Obviously consideration should be given to multi-purpose solar security versions that reduce heat, glare and UV while offering the very same level of security protection as the clear versions.

Reflective security coatings will provide daytime privacy which can be critically important.

Lightly tinted versions help offset installation costs since they lower electric cooling costs and qualify for local utility window film rebates.

These coatings have met GSA and DoD blast testing and impact intrusion testing.

Additional security strength can be obtained with an array of fastening systems that create a uniform system between the glass, store frames and our impact coatings.
