What is the Best Energy Efficient Window Film?

Solar Art is lucky enough to be headquartered in Southern California. We have major offices in San Diego, Orange County, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Seattle. Can you think of any common themes between these different locations? I’ll give you a hint...one of the biggest similarities is the struggle with the heat. Especially in the southern locations, the weather stays pretty warm throughout the entire year. We get a bunch of calls every single day from both residential and commercial customers asking for our help because of how hot homes and offices are getting. 

Our customers are experiencing extreme temperatures in their spaces and often find themselves turning to the air conditioning for relief because let's be honest, there is nothing worse than being hot and uncomfortable. Constantly turning on the air conditioner ultimately leads to high electric bills, which isn’t good for our customer’s wallets or the environment. People find themselves stuck because they don’t want to use their air conditioner but they also don’t want to install blinds/shades and darken their room/lose their views outside. This is where window film comes in! There is energy efficient window film that helps lower your electricity bill and reduce heat without darkening your space. Keep on reading to learn more about energy efficient window film!

What is energy efficiency?

So, what does being “energy efficient” mean? Energy efficient just means that you are lowering the amount of energy used in your home or your commercial space. It’s about finding ways to lower your energy consumption while remaining comfortable...like installing window film! 

How to have energy efficient homes & building energy efficiency 

You have probably heard about different ways to make your home or office more energy efficient like solar panels or energy efficient appliances. Old appliances typically require more energy to run properly, which is why switching to new energy efficient appliances will lower your energy consumption and ultimately your electricity bill. But, did you know that there is an energy efficient window film that can also make your space more energy efficient in addition to your appliances and HVAC unit? Well, there is and Solar Art installs it for people like you all the time!

If you have an older home, your windows might not be the most energy efficient and they might be letting a ton of heat in. Where air conditioning raises your electric bill to cool-down a space, our energy efficient window film requires no energy whatsoever and has even more benefits. First off, our energy efficient window film is a heat blocking window film. Meaning, that it lowers the amount of heat that enters your space. There are many different energy efficient window films you can choose from and they can block up to 63% of heat. Blocking up to 63% of heat without having to turn to your air conditioning is going to significantly lower your electricity bill. Not to mention, energy efficient window film isn’t going to compromise your views or drastically change the look of your space. 

Not only does energy efficient window film reduce heat, but it is also a glare reducing window film that lowers that annoying glare on your TV screens and computer screens, making your space more comfortable. A bonus is that all energy efficient window film blocks 99% of UVA and UVB rays, which are the leading cause of sun fading. This is going to prolong the lifespan of your furniture, floors, valuable belongings, and more!
