"Great experience from start to finish! We have an 8ft. wide bay window that faces due west. Even though it's a double paned window, the amount of heat and glare coming from that window makes our living room unbearably warm and causes our air conditioner to run constantly in order to fight the heat. Did some research on Window Films and found Carolina Solar Control - a 3M certified installer. I made an online request for contact and our Sales Rep, Susan, called within a few hours to set up an appointment. Susan was extremely helpful and knowledgable! She did a great job of explaining the various products, answered all our questions, and made great recommendations. She left us with various samples so we could view the window with film at various times of day and this allowed us to take our time and make the perfect choice. Once our decision was made, we were quickly given a quote for the work and contacted by Bethany to set up an install appointment. She was extremely helpful in answering questions we had about how to prep for installation, etc. and got us all taken care of. Rick, their installer, showed on time and was very personable, professional, and did a fantastic job! We could immediately feel and see the heat and glare reduction from the film. (We chose the Affinity 30 line.) We're thrilled with our purchase and highly recommend Carolina Solar Control!"

Window Tinting questions, answered by experts

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.

The best windows to tint are those that get the most direct sunlight—particularly sunroom windows or windows facing the south or east where the sun shines most brightly throughout the day. If your pets have favorite windows to lie in front of, you may want to consider those, as well, to protect their skin from sun damage.

Applying window security film yourself is possible, but we don’t recommend it. This task is simple in theory, but getting the product to sit on your windows evenly and without bubbles underneath is challenging for DIYers who lack the necessary experience and tools. You might save money on labor by applying it yourself, but you might also end up with a film that doesn’t look appealing, prompting you to start over and spend the money on a professional installation anyway. Plus, most window film manufacturers will void your warranty if you install the product yourself.

The most popular tint percentage for home windows is 35%. Generally, most homeowners choose a visible light transmission (VLT) between 50% and 35%, where lower numbers mean less sunlight enters the home. A 35% tint blocks over half the incoming light while still allowing plenty of natural light, which can improve energy efficiency and comfort. If privacy is a primary concern, you can opt for a tint of 50% or lower to make it more difficult for people to see inside. However, keep in mind that very dark, thick tints may offer fewer energy-efficiency benefits.

Unlike cars, there are no laws regulating window tint percentages on homes, so you can choose what you think is best. It is often a good idea to hire a professional, as they can show you samples of how different tint levels will look in your specific property, helping you make the right choice.

While you need heat to peel back window film, the tint will often leave behind adhesive residue. You can use chemicals such as isopropyl alcohol or acetone to remove the residue, though hardware stores sell specialized solutions for this purpose as well. You can also use soapy water in a pinch!
