How much heat does window film reduce?

Solar film, decorative film, anti-graffiti film, security film and custom graphics all reduce heat, but different films reduce different amounts. Solar window film can reduce up to 63% of the heat coming through your windows. Generally, the darker the shade of window tint you choose, the more heat the film blocks. However, ceramic films contain no metal or dye, meaning they are optically clear, and they can also reject up to 63% of heat.

Can window film reduce the glare on a TV?

Is window film installed on the interior or exterior?

Most solar film and decorative film is installed on the interior of windows in both residential and commercial settings. In fact, the majority of products are made for interior installation. However, exterior window tints are available for both residential and commercial settings. Exterior film is commonly used for large buildings or double-pane glass that is easily accessible from the exterior. Building wraps are a great example of when AZ Window Services uses exterior film. Anti-graffiti film and security film is often installed on the exterior as well.

What is the warranty on window film installation?

Each manufacturer is different, though warranties are similar, and they differ based on the type of film installed. For solar films, most residential interior installations have a lifetime limited warranty. Most commercial interior installations have a 10–15 year limited warranty. Most exterior installations have a 5–7 year limited warranty. AZ Window Services also provides a one-year guarantee on all labor. To learn what a lifetime limited warranty entails and about specific film warranties, speak with an AZ Window Services representative!

Will the window film turn purple?

Window films that don't contain any dye won't turn purple. New technology in the industry has eliminated the need for dyed materials and has allowed most window films to be made with metals and ceramic metals instead of dye.

Will the newly installed window film bubble?

It is very common for newly installed film to show evidence of water bubbles as part of the drying process. Don't be alarmed — this is simply residual moisture trapped under the film that evaporates as the film cures. It can sometimes take up to 60 days for all the moisture to evaporate. It is important not to touch or press on these bubbles, as it will prolong the drying process and damage the film.

Can I get night time privacy with window film?

You can get daytime privacy with window film, but the products currently available do not allow for night time privacy if the lights are on. You can use a decorative film such as a frosted film to achieve night time privacy; however, you will not be able to see in or out of that window during the day or night.

Does window film come in different colors?

There are many different shades of window film to choose from that dictate the performance of the film. All window film manufacturers make products that work the same but have different hues. You first decide whether you are looking for a solar film or a decorative film. Some solar films are more brown, gray, blue, or green in color and all reject heat differently. With decorative window film you can choose from frosted film, blackout film, whiteout film and more.

Is the installation process messy?

Nope! Our installers use drop cloths to protect your floors, walls and furniture from the soap-and-water solution we use during installation. We clean up all trash we generate and leave your space looking exactly how we found it. If you have concerns about your space and the installation process, speak with an operations manager to learn more!
