They are often darker and absorb more heat, which raises the risk of thermal stress in residential double glazing. Use a film made for residential windows, and have the glazing identified before anything is chosen.

Solar control film reduces the heat arriving through the glass, which is what makes sun-facing rooms hard to keep comfortable in summer. Less gain means cooling systems work against a smaller load and temperatures stay steadier between rooms. The scale of the difference depends on the film, the glazing and how much glass you have.
