"Mike and Clayton did a fabulous job with the installation of our new window film. Mike was so great and patient working with us all the way through this job. In the beginning we had numerous questions re: this film. He answered all our questions and then some and helped us understand the benefits of this film. After the delay with the shutdown, the guys were able to do the installation. Everything went smoothly and we absolutely love our new film. The film we chose cuts 41% of the heat coming into the house and 98% of UV rays that fade the interior floors and furniture. You don't even notice the film is on the window. We will refer Cool View Tint to anyone considering adding film to their windows. They are great."

Window Tinting questions, answered by experts

Home window tinting is generally considered a worthwhile investment due to its numerous benefits. The primary advantages include:

  • Energy Efficiency: Tinting reduces solar heat gain, which lowers cooling costs in warmer months. It can also help retain heat during cooler months, leading to savings on your electric bill that may eventually exceed the initial cost of the tinting.

  • UV Protection: It blocks harmful UV rays, protecting your family and pets from sun damage. This also prevents fading and extends the life of your furniture, flooring, and other interior furnishings.

  • Increased Comfort: By regulating heat, window tinting helps maintain a more comfortable and even temperature throughout your home. It also reduces glare on TVs and other electronic screens.

  • Enhanced Privacy and Security: Tinting makes it more difficult for outsiders to see into your home. Additionally, certain types of window films can increase security by helping the glass withstand trauma from break-in attempts or severe weather.

It's important to note that not all window tints offer the same combination of benefits. For example, security films are designed for impact resistance but may offer less UV protection, while ceramic tints excel at blocking heat and UV rays but do not provide the same level of security.

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.

Some frosted glass sprays can handle the outdoors, but most of them aren't built for it. Sprays made for exterior use will say so clearly on the label. Anything marked “interior use only” can't hold up against rain, UV exposure, or changing temperatures without peeling, fading, or yellowing. Outdoor-rated sprays are typically more durable, but even then, proper prep and application matter. Before spraying anything outside, double-check the product instructions. If it doesn’t specifically mention exterior use, skip it. 

Most window installation and repair companies can handle putting tint film over your existing windows, but it’s best to hire a company that specializes in window tinting. This decision will result in the best application for the cleanest look, and it usually means you’ll get a better professional opinion about the type of tint and tint level that makes the most sense for your home and personal preferences.

Tinted window films for houses are usually made from a micro-thin sheet of thermoplastic resin called polyethylene terephthalate (PET) that offers the strength and flexibility needed when fitting film to a window. Homeowners looking for a solution that insulates a window without blocking light from a home should investigate low-e glass vs. window film.
