What is window film and how does it save on energy bills?
Window film or window tint is a micro-thin material which allows adequate sunlight with less heat and UV rays passing through it. When applied to the interior of your windows or glass, the film acts as an ‘invisible shield’ that rejects up to 83% of the sun’s heat. Which is great for your home in summer. It keeps your home cooler whilst in winter, window film helps retain heat for that cozy feeling.
