Can I install my own home window tinting?

• <div><p>Installing tinting on your own home windows is possible, but not recommended. It’s very easy to make mistakes that leave visible bubbles or imperfections in the protective coating. Not only does this look unprofessional and detract from your home’s curb appeal, but it also limits the usefulness of the tint and may still let sunlight and solar heat through your windows. If you attempt the application yourself and mess up, you’ll pay more for the wasted material and the labor to hire a tinting professional to fix the issues.</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: What type of window covering is most energy efficient?

• <div><p>When it comes to window coverings, cellular shades are typically known as the most energy-efficient option. Cellular shades are also known as honeycomb shades. They are made of a soft fabric and take the form of &ldquo;honeycomb&rdquo; cells. These cell pockets trap air in and around your windows, providing insulation.</p></div>

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: Can I apply window security film myself?

• <div><p>Applying window security film yourself is possible, but we don&rsquo;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&rsquo;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.</p></div>
