It’s summertime in Orange County and temperatures are heating up. On a hot day in August, it’s not unusual for temperatures to climb as high as 85 degrees or greater. On warm days like this, keeping your home cool without running up your energy bill is a challenge. Heat reducing window film helps Orange County residents stay cool during the summer while keeping utility costs low. Here’s how.

 

How Window Film Fights Off the Summer Heat

Window films are one of the best kept secrets in the architectural industry. Why? Because designers and builders love to use them to keep out the heat. Unlike thermal curtains and blinds, window tints block heat without covering up the beautiful views provided by your windows. This helps preserve the glamorous aesthetic created by big windows and glass walls, which is why designers love to use them. The reason that window tints are able to accomplish this is because they use something called “spectrally selective technology.”

 

The Power of Spectrally Selective Technology

Spectrally selective technology is a type of advanced engineering used to produce residential window films. Essentially, what it does is “selectively” block certain spectrums of light that carry heat. This includes heat and UV rays.

You can think of it as a sort of filter for your windows. Visible light gets through the filter, but heat doesn’t. This way, the room stays bright but doesn’t get too hot during the summer.
