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>

Will home window tinting boost my property value?

• <div><p>In many cases, window tinting will boost your home value. If you’re selling your home, especially in a warmer climate, buyers are very likely to see immense value in window tinting, which improves the home’s energy efficiency and helps make the living space more comfortable. Buyers may also recognize the privacy and security improvements offered by window tinting, which could lead to them paying more for your home.</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: Can people see through tinted house windows at night?

• <div><p>Visibility through tinted house windows or privacy film depends on the lighting. During the day, the tint or film typically prevents people from seeing inside. However, at night, if you have lights on inside your home, the interior will be brighter than the outside, which allows people to see in. You can choose from various shades of privacy film, from lighter to darker, to optimize the level of privacy you want.</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>

The installer arrived late for the appointment. That wasn't a problem since I was home that day anyway. The install went without a problem . The doors do seal well and do a good job, compared to the old ones, of keeping the water out during a hard rain. And they seem to keep out drafts. A bonus...

"They did fine. Once we got everything ironed out, he came when he said. They even cleaned my mirrors for me even when I didn't ask them to. I don;t think he's actually doing windows anymore. I think he just did it for me because he had that deal so he has to honor. I didn't really shop around much. He did a really good job. He could have been better about responsiveness. When I was initially trying to schedule, he was I'm on a roof or I'm doing this right now. Can you call me back? Instead of making it a point for him to call me. I think that would be my only complaint. He was on time so no issues there."

"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."
