Why This Matters
California's Title 24 energy code sets minimum window performance standards for new construction. Window film can bring older homes up to — and beyond — those standards without window replacement.
Near NBVC Vet Clinic in Oxnard, south- and west-facing windows receive the most direct solar load and benefit most from film. This is especially problematic for historic or older home installations, which older single-pane windows benefit most from low-e retrofit film to improve thermal efficiency.
California's combination of high solar intensity, clear skies, and mild winters makes residential window film a year-round performance upgrade — not just a summer fix.
The Solution
Perforated film solves the privacy-versus-light tradeoff. The micro-hole pattern maintains outward visibility from inside while blocking the view from outside during daylight hours.
