Window tinting is the process of applying a film to glass. When people think of window tinting, more often than not car windows come to mind. Many are surprised to learn that residential window tinting has a long list of benefits.


Five Benefits of window tinting for your home or home office

1. Privacy

Window film keeps prying eyes out of your home. One of the most important benefits of window tinting for your home is to reduce the chance of people with bad intentions peering inside your windows. Window film creates a mirror-like effect by causing the light to bounce back when it hits your windows making it difficult for people to see inside.

2. Solar Protection

Without window film, the sun's damaging UV rays have full access to everything inside your home. This includes carpets, furniture, priceless works of art and photographs that can be damaged by sun fading. When you have your windows tinted, you block out 99% of the sun's ultraviolet rays thereby protecting your belongings.

3. Energy conservation

Another one of the benefits of window tinting for your home is saving money. During the warmer months, your home will remain cooler due to the added protection from the sun. This can reduce your need for air conditioning. During the winter months, your window film will help trap heat inside which can also lower your heat bills.

4. Reduce glare

The constant glare from the sun on your television or computer screen can make it difficult to watch your favorite sports team or get important work done. While window shades are an option to prevent this problem, window film allows you to cut the glare while still enjoying the sunshine. 

5. Aesthetic

As a homeowner, you are concerned with your home's curb appeal. Investing in window tinting improves the look of your home from the street and can add value when you go to sell your home. Decorating and architectural styles will change, but window film will improve the look of any home.

Is residential window tint better in summer or winter in Colorado?

Here in Colorado Springs, residential window tint can bring comfort in different ways depending on the season. In the summertime, quality window tint will reduce heat entering through windows. Not only is this more comfortable for you, but it also will help with your energy bill. In the wintertime, the sun is lower in the sky which often brings glaring and blinding sunlight into your rooms. Residential window tint can reduce that glare in your living room, kitchen, home office, and bedrooms.
