How do I know if a window is energy efficient?

• <div><p>Energy-efficient windows are judged on their performance according to a few different factors, including heat transfer, air leakage, light transference, and condensation resistance. If you're unsure whether a window is energy-efficient, look for an ENERGY STAR® label from the <a href="https://www.energystar.gov/">U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)</a>. If various products, including windows, meet energy-efficiency standards set by the federal government, the EPA issues this label to help consumers identify energy-efficient products.</p></div>

Q: What is the best alternative to window screens?

• <div><p>A lace curtain may block some of the biggest insects from entering while still allowing a breeze to get through. If your concern is privacy, then curtains and blinds will provide better privacy than window screens; for UV protection, you can choose specialty windows or UV-blocking film. And if you just want an inexpensive, temporary solution, there are adhesive or magnetic screen panels you can install for an hour, a day, or a season.</p></div>

Q: How do you really black out windows?

• <div><p>Use a combination of blackout methods to truly black out your windows. If you want to eliminate all light from your room, try installing a very dark tinted film and then putting up blackout shades over the entire window. Reach out to a professional and request some custom-made shades for the best result. </p></div>

Q: Will solar screens affect my view or natural light?

• <div><p>Solar screens reduce glare and block UV rays, which may slightly dim natural light and alter the view from inside. However, most homeowners find the trade-off worthwhile for improved comfort and energy savings. The impact depends on the screen&rsquo;s color and density, with darker screens blocking more light but providing enhanced glare reduction and privacy. </p></div>

Q: Do tints come with warranties?

• <div><p>Yes, most professional-grade window films include warranties covering fading, peeling, and bubbling.</p></div>

Did not finish the project. Some of the pointing done is already falling out. Water pours into my windows during strong rains. 7 months of rehab on a 100 year old building. This is the only project outstanding. New construction being ruined. Very disappointed.

"Sales process was good, courteous and helpful. Installation instructions were easy to follow. Did have a small issue with one sensor which was easily solved with a call. Control panel is easy to use and well constructed. Phone app is the best part. Not a big fan of a 2 year contract and the monthly rate feels a little high, but definitely a decent system. I had emailed them a question pertaining installing on double hung windows and never received a reply, but other than that their phone support prior to that was good."

"My husband noticed we had a hole in our roof earlier in the week. He was out of town for the week and did not have a chance to call anyone before he left. Today it was raining and started to leak into the family room. I called Mike and he was here within the hour. It was fixed within an hour at a reasonable rate. Will definitely be using him again. Very professional and personable. Thank you so much for solving my problem.
