Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, window film helps lower heating and cooling costs by blocking heat in summer and retaining warmth in winter.

Professional films are designed for a wide variety of glass types, including double-pane and low-E, without causing damage.

No, modern films provide heat and UV protection without excessively darkening your space. You can choose from a range of light levels.

Yes, films block harmful UV rays that cause fading to flooring, furniture, and artwork, extending their lifespan.

Yes, depending on the type, films can increase privacy while still allowing natural light into your space.

Our films are made with a scratch resistant coating. However, the film can still be scratched if enough pressure is applied from a seatbelt, ring, keys, etc. Scratches and other personal damage are not covered under the Lifetime Warranty.

Yes, but we recommend using Sprayway Glass Cleaner and a squeegee or Bounty Paper Towel. You can also fill a squirt bottle and add a little dish soap or Johnson & Johnson Baby Shampoo, and then the same squeegee or Bounty.

With professional installation and quality products like LLumar or Vista, window films can last 10–20 years or more.

Yes! Skylights account for a tremendous amount of heat buildup in the warmer months. We recommend using a dark or reflective solar film to reject heat and reduce glare. Unfortunately, dome skylights cannot have window film applied. Window film is made for flat glass and does not lay smooth on the curves of a dome skylight. However, there are other options are available. Please give us a call if you would like additional details.

Yes – Residential Window Tinting is a very popular solution for many homeowners. Residential tint decreases glare, heat, interior fading, & UV penetration while increasing comfort, privacy, and energy savings. There are also safety/security films to prevent damage and break-ins.

Absolutely. Films reduce glare from sunlight, making TVs and computer screens easier to view in bright spaces.

Quite a bit. A double-pane window is thermally insulated by a gas trapped between two panes of glass, and effectively doubles the insulating performance of a single-pane window. To get that same kind of insulating power from a thin, transparent window film added to single-pane glass is impressive – and a lot more affordable.

It will take at least two weeks for the window film to completely dry out. Until then, the windows may appear slightly hazy or streaky. Leave your vehicle outside in the sunlight to help speed up the drying process. Drying time may take a little longer in the colder months.

Yes, safety and security films help hold glass together, reducing risks from shattering during severe weather or attempted break-ins.
