Sunshine is a wonderful thing, unless of course when it is too bright. When the sun is in your eyes, it is very difficult to see. Moving between well-lit areas and darker parts of the building is difficult, can cause accidents, and may result in eye strain. When sitting in a single room day after day, too much sun itself can cause to have uneven tans, eye strain, and even skin problems from an overabundance of ultraviolet radiation. What are more, clear windows refract light and increase heat in rooms where it is not always wanted. This can impact energy costs as well as employee comfort and efficiency.
Is there a solution to these problems? With commercial window films in Dayton Ohio, the answer is a resounding yes! Below is a list of benefits and products that make window tinting a relatively inexpensive, permanent solution to the problem of too much sunlight.
*Untinted windows allow a lot of ultraviolet (UV) light in. In addition to skin problems, from blemishes and sunburns to the risk of skin cancer, UV light causes fading in the colors of furniture, carpets, rugs, walls, and works of art. Solutions like Contact Solar Tint greatly reduce or even block the penetration of UV light.
*Glare is simply unpleasant. Tinting allows you to get nearly as much light as you would otherwise, but without the annoying glare.
*Tinted window films help businesses save on energy costs in more ways than you might think. Tinting does not just keep a room from overheating during the warm months. It provides an extra layer of insulation that keeps both the winter cold and the summer heat from penetrating a building through its windows. In this way, it is a diverse means of reducing HVAC and power expenditures.
*Certain types of tinting film also protect the glass from vandals, rendering a building nearly graffiti-proof. This also has the potential to deter other types of crime related to the building.
*Tinting also makes homes (and even some businesses) eligible for certain tax credits. Businesses interested in taking advantage of this should contact the Environmental Protection Agency, the IRS, or their state energy office.
Commercial window films in Dayton Ohio provide a surprising number of cost-efficient, convenient solutions for businesses and homes alike. Look to the above list when selecting the distributor and installer who is right for your needs.
