Why This Matters
Low-e coatings are applied to the inner surface of the outer pane in double-pane windows. This placement maximizes their thermal efficiency — and also maximizes their reflective focus on anything in the sun's path.
Near Dr. Curt D. Blacklock, DO, FACP in Middletown, energy-efficient double-pane glass with low-e coatings can be enhanced further with retrofit film. This is especially problematic for single-family home installations, which the most common residential application; window film reduces heat gain and protects furnishings.
Modern energy codes in this market require high-performance windows in all new construction. This mandate has dramatically increased the prevalence of low-e glass — and with it, the frequency of turf burn complaints.
The Solution
Window film works by either absorbing the solar energy (ceramic and solar control films) or scattering it (anti-reflective and perforated films) so it can't concentrate into a hot spot.
Solar control film addresses both reflection and heat transmission. It's the right choice when you want to stop turf burn AND reduce interior heat gain. Slightly more visible from outside than anti-reflective film.
Reduces glare and diffuses focused solar energy to protect interiors and improve comfort.
Climate & Solar Performance
Properties near Dr. Curt D. Blacklock, DO, FACP in Pennsville, Middletown experience low-e glass performance conditions that make window film particularly effective. Anti-Reflective Window Film is specifically engineered to address this solar exposure.
