Glass breakage is uncommon, but it is the reason film selection matters. Different glazing types absorb and shed heat differently, so the film needs to be matched to the glass rather than picked on appearance alone. An installer should identify the existing glazing, note the size, orientation and any shading, and recommend a film suited to it.

Start with the problem rather than the product. Decide whether heat, glare, privacy, fading or safety is the priority, then look at which range addresses it and how the glazing affects that choice. Ask a local tinter whether they carry Kepler film or can get it.
