Will window security film affect my homeowners insurance?

• <div><p>Your homeowners insurance provider may decrease your premium if you improve the security of your home with window security film. You can contact your insurer to determine whether there will be a change in cost after applying this addition. If there is a decrease in your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-get-know-your-homeowners-insurance.htm">homeowners insurance</a> premium or deductible, it will likely only be available if your window film is installed by a professional window film installer. </p></div>

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. They are made of a soft fabric and take the form of &ldquo;honeycomb&rdquo; cells. These cell pockets trap air in and around your windows, providing insulation.</p></div>

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

• <div><p>No, it isn&rsquo;t necessary to have energy-efficient windows. However, if you care about your energy bill and making your windows more energy efficient, fixing any heat, UV, or air transfer issues is an excellent way to lower your bills and keep your house cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. </p></div>

Q: What thickness of window film is the best?

• <div><p>The ideal thickness of window film depends on various factors and specific needs. Thicker films generally offer increased durability and enhanced security benefits. They are also typically more effective at reducing heat and blocking UV rays. However, thinner options may be preferable for some applications, such as decorative or privacy films. Thinner films are easier to apply and provide adequate privacy without compromising visibility. Ultimately, the best thickness of window film will depend on your specific requirements, desired benefits, and the recommendations of professional installers.</p></div>

Q: Can I use Windex to apply window film?

• <div><p>Do not use Windex or any glass cleaner when applying window film. These products contain ammonia, which will damage the film. Instead, use the application solution provided with the installation kit. If there is no solution, make your own using 1 teaspoon of baby shampoo and a gallon of bottled water.</p></div>

Its the second time I have used them. They do, obviously, windows inside and out. For the sliding glass doors they clean out the runners and things like that. Two guys show up, they are professional and pleasant.

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...
