Is it possible to create a high performance window with out losing our view?
Do we have to have mirror or dark tint to block the heat?
Please read the
following detail on how a quality window film should work.
The
solution to over heating
through windows is to specify solar control glass or applied window film,
though,
even the best solar control glass performs no better than the best applied
window film.
Solar window films can be selected for optimum energy
performance in reference to geographic
orientation of any given home. However, even in new construction often the cost
of solar control
glass exceeds the cost of standard glass to which a solar control window film is
later applied.
The importance of sufficient insulation in walls and roofs is well recognized
and the importance of
well insulated windows cannot be over-emphasized. Compared to solid walls and
roofs even the best
windows are poor insulators; they are often equally poor at blocking out solar
energy.
Stopping
heat at the window is the most
cost-effective means of lowering temperatures and
decreasing HVAC operating costs. Fortunately, conventional tinted and reflective
window films
successfully block a significant amount of solar heat. However, these window
films also
reduce a significant percentage of visible light.
Many of these conventional
window films are highly reflective in daylight giving the window a
mirror-like appearance when viewed externally. Most conventional window films
transmit less
than 34 percent of visible light – a good 36 percent less than the 70 percent
necessary to
be undetected by the naked eye. The result is the building’s interiors are
correspondingly darkened,
often necessitating the use of increased illumination. This may lead to higher
electricity consumption,
which may increase temperatures, which may, in turn require more air
conditioning.
Increased utility costs defeat the major benefit of the film – cost savings.
Clear,
spectrally selective applied window film offers the best
ratio of visible light transmission to heat rejection.
“Spectrally selective” refers to the film’s ability to select or let in
desirable daylight, while blocking undesirable solar heat.
The price of tinted window film and reflective window film ranges from $4 to $6
per installed square foot.
Spectrally selective
window film ranges in price from $9 to $12 a square foot installed.
Less expensive conventional
window films have a shorter payback compared with spectrally selective films.
However, when factoring in the cost of extra energy used for lighting and HVAC
operation due to conventional
film’s inability to transmit sufficient visible light or block solar heat, the
payback for conventional film and
spectrally selective film becomes comparable. Given rising electricity cost, the
rate of payback for spectrally
selective film for solar windows is always improving – averaging less than four
years.

Beautiful windows are an
important part of your home’s appeal.
But the summer sun raging through them can cause heat to build, driving up
air conditioning costs.
The villain is infra-red heat. In combination with potent ultraviolet
radiation,
it is also responsible for fading expensive furnishings.
Until recently, there was very little you could do to protect yourself.
Curtains and drapes can absorb these rays causing loss of sunlight and
fading.
Covering windows with dark tints or reflective glass forces you to
compromise the integrity of your home’s architectural design.
With our energy saving
window tint on your home,
you can be one step closer to making your home green
and eco-friendly,
energy efficient and part of the solution to our growing
environmental problem.
