Is window security film on windows worth it?

• <div><p>Window security film won’t prevent break-ins or stop your window from shattering from impact during extreme weather like hurricanes or tornadoes. However, applying security film is relatively inexpensive, and it can make breaking into your home significantly harder—often hard enough to deter burglars entirely—and keep your window from shattering on your floor after impact. For these reasons, window security film is often a worthwhile investment that helps protect your property.</p></div>

Q: Is it necessary to have energy-efficient windows?

• <div><p>No, it isn&rsquo;t necessary to have energy-efficient windows.

Q: What type of window covering is most energy efficient?

• <div><p>When it comes to window coverings, cellular shades are typically known as the most energy-efficient option. Cellular shades are also known as honeycomb shades.

I've been using Barto for over 25 years. They were very quick to make an easy sale and sell me the 5 year warranty program. It took them 5 days to arrange delivery, which I can understand that it can take some time. I had to pay extra for the mount that the unit slides into and for the...
