Many homeowners believe that window tints are typically associated with vehicles or commercial buildings, while residential window tints are perceived to influence the aesthetic features of a home. While it does boost the exterior and interior look of your living space, window tints also provide an array of benefits that may help you reduce your energy bills and even prolong the life of your furniture.
Consider the demand of natural light in most modern homes, it’s not a surprise to see window films being used more and more by home-buyers as it is an essential feature allows dwellers to enjoy the appeal of sunlit rooms, as well as have a view without compromising privacy. To that end, here are some benefits this window treatment option can offer to your house:
To maintain privacy in most residential homes, blinds are typically the go-to for homeowners. However, it limits the use of natural light and prevents you from enjoying a good view of the neighbourhood, especially during mornings or afternoons where you’re in the mood to allow some light to cast a warm, wakeful glow in your living space.
In that regard, installing window films solves this problem by shielding the interior of your home from unwanted, prying eyes without blocking your view of the great outdoors.
Benefit #1: Improve Privacy
With privacy comes an increase in security as window tints keep the insides of your home obstructed from an outsider’s perspective, which prevents it from being vulnerable to potential intruders or smash-and-grab scenarios.
Not only that, but window tints are also made durable and shatter-resistant, which deters criminals from breaking your windows or keeps any shards from exploding due to natural disasters like hurricanes or storms as any small crack in the glass remains in place, preventing any shards from causing any further damage.
Benefit #2: Increased Heat Absorption
Windows are not made to insulate your home, however, adding tints can keep the heat from entering your home while preventing heat loss during the colder season. In that regard, window tints are effective in regulating the temperature of your home, which allows rooms to stay hot or cold as needed. Without putting any more stress to your heater or cooler systems, you can reduce energy and save on your monthly electricity bills, making it a cost-efficient investment to any homeowners.
Benefit #3: Increased UV Protection
The sun’s ultraviolet rays are known to be harmful to skin, especially when exposed under long periods. In that regard, the detrimental effects can be just as toxic even with a glass window in between, which means that lounging next to a window to relax can lead to unexpected and unfavourable consequences like sunburn or even skin cancer in the worst-case scenarios. To that end, window tints prevent approximately 90% of the sun’s harmful UV rays, protecting your skin and even your furniture, drapes, or any surfaces from taking any damage.
Benefit #4: Reduced Glare
Sometimes the sunlight’s glare can block your view when watching from your television, laptop, or mobile phones as the reflection tends to bounce back from the screen. On that note, window tints prevent the glare from sunlight, car headlamps, or even street lights from entering your home, allowing you to enjoy your time off and relaxing hour without any disruptions.
