Home Window Tinting Erie

Unlike our car window tinting service, home window tinting uses films made for architectural glazing. Automotive film is designed around vehicle glass and does not account for the sealed units, coatings and thicknesses found in houses. Residential film is specified against the glazing in front of it, which is why the glass should be identified before a film is chosen.

Glass breakage is uncommon, but it is a real consideration when adding film to any window, because film changes how the glass absorbs and holds heat. That is why a professional installer checks the glazing type, size, orientation and condition first and matches a suitable film to it rather than applying the same product everywhere.

Start with the problem: heat, glare, fading, privacy or glass retention. Then consider how much you want the appearance of the window to change, and which rooms matter most. From there a dealer can compare specific films and shades against your glazing and how each window is used.

Glazing warranties vary by manufacturer, and some set conditions on applied films. Check the terms that came with your windows, or ask the manufacturer directly, before film is installed. A dealer can tell you which film is proposed so you have the details to hand.

As with business window tinting, thermal stress is the usual explanation when film is linked to a cracked pane. It happens when part of the glass heats and expands while the edges stay cooler, and it is more of a consideration with sealed double-pane units, tinted glass and shaded panes. Matching the film to the specific glazing is how that risk is managed.

Film can be removed, though it is easier and safer in experienced hands, since scrapers and heat used carelessly can damage the glass or a coating on it. Our guide on how to remove window film walks through the process step by step if you want to understand what is involved.

The main ones are reduced solar heat, less glare, UV filtering that helps limit fading, and daytime privacy where you want it. Safety and security films add glass retention as well. Which benefits you get depends on the film and shade chosen for each window.

By reducing the solar energy entering through the glass, film lowers the heat your cooling system has to deal with on sunny days. Businesses can look at Kepler's commercial window tinting for the same approach across larger areas of glazing.
