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 Rollins Distillery in Pensacola, west-facing windows at low afternoon sun angles drive the highest interior temperature increases. 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 Title 24 energy code sets minimum window performance standards for new construction. Window film can bring older homes up to — and beyond — those standards at a fraction of the cost of window replacement.
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.
Solar control film addresses both heat gain and glare. It's the right choice when you want to reduce cooling costs AND improve comfort. Slightly more visible from outside than anti-reflective film.
Non-metallic ceramic particles reject heat without interfering with signals or views.
