Reflect Protect Window Film: No More Dangerous Sun Reflection in Your Home!

Why choose the reflective window film for homes?

Windows of our homes turn into mirrors under direct sunlight. When it happens, the bright reflection can negatively impact the outdoor environment: the lawn and the garden plants dry out, and the artificial turf and siding “melt”. The reflect protect film is a specialist term, referring to “reflection protection”. Applied to the exterior part of the windows, it “absorbs” the reflection caused by the direct sunlight. Reflect protect tint looks like a slightly opaque screen on your windows, and significantly increases the comfort inside your living spaces: no glare, much less heat, and up to 99% ultraviolet rays blocked!

Types of reflect protect window films

One way reflective window film. The film has a highly reflective surface on one side, usually the exterior side, which reflects light and creates a mirror-like effect. For the film to work effectively, the exterior must be brighter than the interior. This is typically achieved during the daytime when natural sunlight is abundant. It is used for homes to maintain privacy but provide natural light and views.

Dual reflective window tinting films. These provide the benefits of reflective film on both sides but with different levels of reflectivity. It works as a solar control film that offers daytime privacy and reduces heat. Unlike standard solar films with a single reflective coating, dual-reflective films have a special two-layer design. It features high reflectivity on the outside for privacy and solar control and lower reflectivity on the inside to maintain clear views.

Often, customers are looking for a reflective window film day and night. Unfortunately, such films do not exist. Traditional reflective films do not provide the same level of privacy at night as they during daytime. To achieve the desired level of privacy around the clock, you may combine traditional films with additional window treatments or opt for smart window films.

How to choose the right film?

The best film for you depends on your priorities:

• If heat gain and glare reduction are your main concerns, a standard reflective film is fine.
• If daytime privacy is essential, a one-way film could be an option, but be aware of its limitations at night.
• If privacy at night is equally important, consider a smart window film or additional privacy measures like curtains.
