Using window film to save energy

Read More

When expertly installed, window filming can be really helpful in saving energy, which will translate to savings on bills. Temperatures are now more severe than they used to be. This winter was much colder than the last. The past summer was one of the hottest on record and there is no indication that the next summer would be any cooler.

Window filming stops the sun’s radiation from flooding into the offices there which means you would need less air-conditioning to keep your offices cool.

The 3M prestige series only allows about 40 % of the total heat that usually flows through windows. With most offices having large office windows that are usually facing the sun, filming is an inexpensive way of conserving energy.

On the other hand, in the cold winters, the window film will reduce the amount of heat that passes through the window. So it would require less to keep your offices warmed up. By simply filming your office windows you could increase your office’s warmth retention by about 38 % and this naturally translates to lower bills.

Simple and effective, window filming is an inexpensive but helpful way of saving on energy.
