It’s Like Sunscreen for Your Furnishings!

Cloudy days are not too common in Norman, Oklahoma. Thankfully, the sun shines on a regular basis here. Although the sun lifts our spirits, it can also do serious damage to your home and your property. Those harsh UV rays can cause your flooring, art, and upholstered furnishings to fade and look worn and dull prematurely.  Window film on your Norman home’s windows can help! When looking for residential window film in Norman, fade prevention film is at the top of the list!

Fade Prevention Window Film Blocks UV Rays

fade prevention window film

Installing fade protection film on your windows and doors blocks more than 99% of the sun’s damaging UV rays from coming through the glass of your windows. Those rays are responsible for the fading of your upholstery, floors and artwork.  The great news is it does all this without blocking the natural light you love so much or without changing the appearance of your windows. In fact, it can be virtually invisible.

Window tinting in Norman has become very popular the least few years and fade prevention film is a large part of that popularity.  This type of residential window film not only blocks those UV rays but also protects against excessive heat.  Heat can damage your interior as well. It causes the materials to break down and greatly reduces the life span of your interior furnishings. The right window film on your Norman home preserves the condition of your home and your decorations.

Why Window Film is Better Than Low-E Glass for Norman Homes

By Blog

During these hot Norman Summers we are getting, Norman residents are starting to realize that their AC may not be enough. The main reason for this is because the real source of the heat in your homes during these hot summer months is untreated windows. Solar heat gain through your Norman windows seeps in at an alarming rate and heats up the air you are paying to keep cool. The two most popular solutions are either window tinting or window replacement with Low-E glass. So which one of these options is better?

Window Film Costs Less than Window Replacement

norman window costs

Most window replacement will run you between $40 and $55 per square foot. Compare this to solar control window film which is between $6.50-$8.00 per square foot. You can see the savings starts to add up.

Window Film Is Easier To Install

clear-window-protective-film-home_large

New window replacement is pretty labor intensive and can take quite a bit of time. Your existing windows would need to be removed; sometimes new windows require new framing, etc. Window tinting only takes a day at most to install by our professional, certified window film installers.

Window Film Has Added Benefits

commercial norman2

Low-E windows and glass are good at what they do, cut down on the heat and glare. Window tinting blocks out the heat and glare as well but has other benefits. Window film blocks out the UV rays, provides residential privacy and can turn any window into safety glass.

So while Low-E windows can block out the heat and glare, adding window tint to your Norman home provides so many other benefits as well. Call Norman Window Film for a free estimate and learn more.
