WHAT ARE THE PROS AND CONS OF WINDOW FILM?

Vista, Solis & V-Kool window film manufactures have made a break through in window film that prevents UV Rays from entering your home, yet allows light to enter. Window film is applied to the interior of your windows, and a trained professional can finish the install on your home in less than a day.

Originally there was a concern that window film would not fit requirements in many homeowners associations due to the reflective nature and dark tinting characters of window film. However, with advancements to technology, window film is now offered with an option of a non-reflective material which is virtually invisible to the untrained eye.  

Pros:

  1. Blocks more than 99% of UV Rays from entering your home and 70% of the normal heat gain.
  2. Prevents color fading to your interior furnishings.
  3. The option to install a mirror film for privacy,  or a clear film for unobstructed views.
  4. Some films will prevent 55% of heat loss from the interior of your home during winter.                

Cons:

  1. More expensive upfront cost than other window treatment methods.
  2. HOA may have restrictions on reflective film.
