The Benefits of House Window Tinting
CGT Blogger • Oct 15, 2019
Are you looking for an easy home upgrade? Home window tinting offers more benefits than you'd expect. Here's what all homeowners should know.
Big windows fill a house with light and fresh air. They also allow
UV rays
from the sun to flood into your home, exposing you and your family to the same rays you would be hiding from outdoors.
House window tinting
is a great way to block UV rays from entering your windows. This way you can enjoy big windows and a gorgeous view of the outdoors without worrying about damage from the sun.
Let's take a look at what other benefits house window tinting can offer.
Better Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency is all the rage these days. Not only does it help you save money on your energy bills, but also you're helping to protect the planet by wasting less energy.
House window tinting is a great way to boost your home's energy efficiency. By inhibiting the transfer of heat, the tinting not only blocks heat from entering the home during the summer but also helps retain heat indoors during the winter. Heating and cooling make up nearly
half of the typical energy bill
so you can imagine the savings.
The best part is that the tints cost far less than replacing all your windows with more energy-efficient models.
No Fading Furniture
The rays of the sun don't just do damage to your skin, they also affect many types of materials. Furniture, paintings, flooring, carpets, curtains, and even photos all fade from being exposed to sunlight streaming in through the windows.
Window tinting helps block these harmful rays and keeps your furnishings the color they are supposed to be for as long as possible.
Security
Window tinting can help make the glass in your windows stronger. The idea is similar to that of the safety glass
that can be found in cars.
Not only does it help to deter thieves but also if a window is broken by accident or during one of Florida's hurricanes, shards of glass won't go flying every which way. This is particularly helpful when you have small children or pets in your household.
Privacy
From the interior, window tinting is not dark and allows sunlight to stream into your harm (minus the UV rays!). From the exterior, however, the tinting is slightly dark and makes it difficult to see inside your home.
Not only does this provide you protection from peeping Toms, but also is another way that the tinting acts as a deterrent to thieves. If they can't see very well if anyone is home, they'll likely move on to an easier target.
