If the sun
is penetrating your building’s glass, making it uncomfortable for your employees and causing your utility bills to spin out of control, consider installing solar control film on your windows. Your problem will be solved and your investment eventually will pay for itself through energy savings.
An example of a solar control window film project can been seen in the video to your left.
How Solar Control Films Work
- Solar control films are coated with materials that reflect away the sun’s heat.
- They reduce the brightness of the sun and virtually eliminate ultraviolet light.
- There are two types of sun control products: exterior and interior.
- Exterior products, which include films, are effective on sloped and other uniquely shaped glass and on atriums, as shown in this video.
- Interior solar control films are more common. They are clear and don’t impact outside viewing. And they are very effective in their reduction of energy consumption and utility bills while increasing the comfort of building occupants.

Solar Film FAQ
This film prevents glaring sun rays to enter buildings unfiltered, making it more comfortable for office employees sitting at desks near windows. The film can also significantly reduce building energy costs by balancing the building’s HVAC system that can be thrown out of whack by unfiltered sun rays.
The film is installed on the interior of the glass with an adhesive that secures the film to the glass.
Solar control window film can significantly reduce a building’s energy consumption, providing building owners with savings that can eventually pay for the film.
