Why This Matters
Glass is a poor thermal barrier. Even double-pane windows transmit significant solar heat — especially on south- and west-facing exposures where the sun angle is most direct.
Near Behavioral Health Unit in Gering, 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.
Inland California cities experience some of the highest solar irradiance in the country. Combined with older single-pane window stock, this creates strong demand for low-e retrofit and solar control films.
The Solution
Professional installation ensures the film is applied without bubbles, gaps, or edge lifting — all of which reduce effectiveness and shorten lifespan.
Low-e retrofit film is specifically designed for older single-pane windows. It adds a low-emissivity layer that dramatically improves thermal performance — the most cost-effective upgrade for pre-1980 California homes.
Blocks high-heat solar wavelengths to reduce interior temperatures and UV exposure.
