Five Benefits of window tinting for your home or home office

Window tinting is the process of applying a film to glass. When people think of window tinting, more often than not car windows come to mind. Many are surprised to learn that residential window tinting has a long list of benefits.

Five Benefits of window tinting for your home or home office

1. Privacy

Window film keeps prying eyes out of your home. One of the most important benefits of window tinting for your home is to reduce the chance of people with bad intentions peering inside your windows. Window film creates a mirror-like effect by causing the light to bounce back when it hits your windows making it difficult for people to see inside.

2. Solar Protection

Without window film, the sun's damaging UV rays have full access to everything inside your home. This includes carpets, furniture, priceless works of art and photographs that can be damaged by sun fading. When you have your windows tinted, you block out 99% of the sun's ultraviolet rays thereby protecting your belongings.

3. Energy conservation

Another one of the benefits of window tinting for your home is saving money. During the warmer months, your home will remain cooler due to the added protection from the sun. This can reduce your need for air conditioning. During the winter months, your window film will help trap heat inside which can also lower your heat bills.

4. Reduce glare

The constant glare from the sun on your television or computer screen can make it difficult to watch your favorite sports team or get important work done. While window shades are an option to prevent this problem, window film allows you to cut the glare while still enjoying the sunshine.

5. Aesthetic

As a homeowner, you are concerned with your home's curb appeal. Investing in window tinting improves the look of your home from the street and can add value when you go to sell your home. Decorating and architectural styles will change, but window film will improve the look of any home.

Is residential window tint better in summer or winter in Colorado?

Here in Colorado Springs, residential window tint can bring comfort in different ways depending on the season. In the summertime, quality window tint will reduce heat entering through windows. Not only is this more comfortable for you, but it also will help with your energy bill. In the wintertime, the sun is lower in the sky which often brings glaring and blinding sunlight into your rooms. Residential window tint can reduce that glare in your living room, kitchen, home office, and bedrooms.

You want the best protection for your business. Even if you have an alarm system and solid locked doors, your windows will always provide a vulnerable access point. Having window security film professionally installed can help keep your property and employees safe and secure from break-ins and other hazards. But how does window security film really work?

How does window security film really work?

Window security film works similarly to your car's windshield. A binding agent allows the glass to stay together even when it is impacted and breaks. There is no shattering which provides an extra element of safety and security for your business in the event of vandalism or an attempted break-in. Criminals want quick and easy access, and they are less likely to continue smash a window that refuses to shatter. The fact that windows with security film don't shatter also means that those inside your business have a lower chance of injury when a window is broken for whatever reason.

Vandalism or riot
Extreme weather
Natural disasters
Accidents

Paint Protection Film in Winter

Thu, 01 Oct 2020 18:11:31 GMT

Should you apply Paint Protection Film, or Clear Bra, in Winter?

If you want to keep your car's paint and finish looking nice all year round, you might consider cost-effective methods to add protection before winter comes. We all know our Colorado winters can be detrimental to our vehicles with the application of sand, salt, and chloride on the roads.

With winter just around the corner, how can you avoid costly paint repairs that happen as a result of these materials that are notoriously bad on clear coat and paint?

What is Paint Protection Film, also known as Clear Bra?

Paint Protection Film is a thermoplastic urethane film that is applied to surfaces of your car, truck, motorcycle, RV, etc. to add a very thin and nearly invisible layer of protection. This film can deflect objects off your car and protect against other damaging and corrosive materials, such as

Sand & gravel
Bug splatters
Bird droppings
Tree sap
Hard water

Is Paint Protection Film worth it?

One way to answer that question is to ask yourself how much a trip to the body shop costs to fix paint chips, scratches, rust, or to have a new clear coat applied to your vehicle. Also, having PPF, or clear bra, protecting your vehicle saves time and money because you don't have to continually apply wax. Wax can melt and rub off quickly in the Colorado summers. PPF will stay on and keep your car protected much longer.

Applying high quality Paint Protection Film like SunTek is also less expensive than other options, such as ceramic coating. This economical approach fits more budgets and protects more cars.

Is PPF good for the environment?

Yes! If you consider that you won't have to use as many sprays, polishes and other chemicals to clean and wax your car as often, you could say that applying PPF is good for the environment. This also factors into the long-term cost savings of applying PPF to your vehicle.

Where should I apply PPF?

We recommend protecting the areas of your car that get the most abuse:

Front Bumper
Hood
Front Quarter panels
Headlights
Mirrors
Roof
Rocker panels

At Tint Technologies, we are experts in protecting vehicles with paint protection film ( clear bra ). Applying this 2 dimensional protective film to the 3 dimensional contours of your vehicle is a valuable skill we've honed and perfected over many years. We'd be honored to help you protect your investment and save you from the long-term costs associated with our rough Colorado winters! Call us today to get a quote.

How this Detroit Native and U.S. Military Veteran is Making a Difference

“I don’t do auto detailing,” he says. “I do people. Customer service is my No. 1 goal. When I think back to growing up in Detroit, I remember riding in my mother’s Bel Air. I remember how comfortable and safe I was. And that’s what I want to give my customers: that same comfortable, safe feeling I got from riding in my mother’s car.”
