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 Provo River Inn in Orem, california's 260+ sunny days per year make solar control film a year-round performance upgrade. 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 drought-resistant landscaping trend has reduced shade tree coverage in many neighborhoods. Homes that previously relied on mature trees for solar shading are now prime candidates for window film.
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.
Retrofits existing glass with a low-emissivity coating for improved thermal performance.
