Why This Matters
Low-e glass was a major step forward in window efficiency. But it has limits. Low-e retrofit film extends that performance further, adding a second emissivity layer that existing glass lacks.
Near Armstrong Garden Centers in Long Beach, california's 260+ sunny days per year make solar control film a year-round performance upgrade. This is especially problematic for home office installations, which glare control and uv protection are critical for home offices with screen-facing windows.
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
Most residential window film installations are completed in a single day. The film cures fully within 30 days, after which performance is at its rated specification.
Hybrid films combine ceramic particles with metallic layers for maximum heat rejection. They're the right choice for extreme solar exposures or homes with very large west-facing glass areas.
Reduces glare and diffuses focused solar energy to protect interiors and improve comfort.
