Windows are a great addition to any residential space. They allow you to experience fresh air inside your home and give you great views of the outside world.
Despite these benefits, the truth is that windows are not too great at blocking the heat of the sun. Statistics even reveal that windows are a major contributor to heat build-up during the summer and heat loss during the winter.
Regular untreated windows can even increase the temperature inside your home, beyond what anyone would consider pleasant and make you feel like you’re inside an oven—forcing you to run your HVAC systems for longer.
Heat-blocking window tints like solar window film, on the other hand, are designed specifically to block the sun’s rays and heat, allowing you to maintain an ideal temperature without needing to ramp up your AC—saving you hundreds of dollars in cooling costs.
