Many homeowners find that there is at least one room in their homes that they struggle to keep at a comfortable temperature—too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter. If you’ve been dealing with an issue like this, the solution may be easier (and cheaper) than you think: just install some home solar tint film and the room will start to feel comfortable in all seasons. In this article, our team at Innovative Solar Control Inc. will go over a bit more about what home solar tint is and how it works so that you can make an informed decision about whether it’s right for your home.

Home solar tint refers to a specially-treated film material that is applied to the windows. The chemicals in the coating are specifically formulated to cut down on some of the drawbacks of sunlight while retaining the benefits—for example, the film reduces glare by scattering light rays in multiple directions, but still allows the light to enter your space and provide the same level of illumination.

The specific treatments on home solar tint film also give it other benefits. One of the most popular reasons that people come to us for this product is that it improves the insulation of a home. Having solar tint installed will keep heat energy from entering your home in the summer, and from it leaving in the winter, making it easier to keep your home comfortable in all seasons. In addition, most home solar tint options come with treatments that specifically block out harmful UV-A and UV-B rays, which not only cause sunburn but can also fade or damage your furniture.
