Q: What material is residential window tint made from?

• <div><p>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<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/should-i-use-low-e-glass-or-window-film-block-out-heat.htm"> low-e glass vs. window film</a>. </p></div>

Q: Why is professional input valuable for energy-efficient windows?

• <div><p>Expert installation optimizes insulation properties, cutting energy costs and enhancing home comfort year-round.</p></div>

Q: Why won't my window film stick?

• <div><p>Often, window film won&rsquo;t stick if the glass is too dirty; dust and debris can prevent the adhesive from working. Make sure to clean the glass thoroughly before installing the window film. Low-quality film, which may have a weaker adhesive, might also be the cause of your window film&rsquo;s inability to stick.</p></div>

Q: Can you see through a house window with tint on it?

• <div><p>It depends on the light. If you have a privacy film installed, someone outside of your home would not be able to see inside during the day. During the evening, however, if you have lights on inside of your home, those outside will be able to see inside as the light is greater outside than inside. </p></div>

The windows were pricy but the quality of the windows justifies the price. The crew that installed the windows were wonderful to deal with. They cleaned up after themselves. The project manager was very understanding when I needed to change the schedule due to weather. They accommodated to...

The quote I received was for $36,456, which works out to be more than $1,700 per window--an absolutely ridiculous price, and I brought out a flyer from a competitor advertising replacements at $209 each to prove that. I was also told the $36,000+ price is actually a 'good deal' because Renewal...

Everything worked out fine. They were very knowledgeable about what they were doing, they would explain what they were doing as they were doing it. I felt like I learned something. They could increase their ablilty to make sure they could show up in a two hour window versus a four hour.
