When New Windows are the Better Option
There are some instances when replacing windows is a better option over window film. UV or solar window film can be installed on all types of windows, if your windows are having structural issues; it is probably a good idea to replace them.
As you can see, there are many reasons to choose solar window film for your OKC home. Modern technology make’s today’s solar window film unlike anything we have seen before and you can expect a very long or even lifetime warranty on most of our solar films by Llumar and 3M.
If your energy bill is too high, you have a room in your house that is too hot to use on a warm summer day or the sun is fading your flooring or furniture then window film is a perfect solution for you! We have also had many customers tell us they have to leave their blinds closed because of the sun and miss their great views. Again, window film is the answer.
Once the film is installed, it will last for many years. Most films manufacturers offer a 10 year warranty but the film will usually last over 20 years. After the film cures, which usually takes about 7 -10 sunny days, there is little to no maintenance required. You can clean your windows as normal as long as you use an ammonia free cleaner and a non abrasive paper towel or rag.
The hospitals, healthcare workers and doctors offices are working tirelessly to help all of those affected, we are very thankful for their dedication. One of the problems is the shortage of supplies many doctors offices and healthcare facilities are having. There are not enough masks, tests and other essential supplies. When these facilities do get the supplies, they are very valuable because of their high demand. They need to be protected.
Security film is usually clear but can have a slight tint to it to increase the solar benefits of the film. The film captures any broken glass and keeps it in place. If the window or door happens to break, the film stays in place and prevents entry.
