Why This Matters
Low-e glass reflects up to 70% of solar energy. When that reflected beam hits artificial turf at the right angle — typically in the afternoon when the sun is lower — surface temperatures can exceed 200°F within minutes.
Near Target in Lawrence, energy-efficient double-pane glass with low-e coatings can be enhanced further with retrofit film. This is especially problematic for home office installations, which glare control and uv protection are critical for home offices with screen-facing windows.
Inland areas in this region experience some of the highest solar irradiance globally. Combined with the reflective properties of modern low-e glass, this creates ideal conditions for concentrated reflection damage.
The Solution
DIY film application is possible for smaller windows, but professional installation is strongly recommended for large picture windows or any window where the reflection path is severe. Improper application leaves bubbles and gaps that reduce effectiveness.
Hybrid films combine ceramic particles with metallic layers for maximum heat rejection. They're the right choice for extreme climates or windows with very high solar exposure.
Non-metallic ceramic particles reject heat without interfering with signals or views.
Climate & Solar Performance
