To What Extent Can Window Film Reduce Heat?
The heat rejection property of Window Film will vary depending on the amount of dye and type of metal manufactured into the film. Some Automotive films will contain only a dye but most films contain various amounts and types of metals which give films an extra heat and light repellant property. The more metal in a film the greater the amount of heat rejection but this can also create a mirror effect as seen on many large commercial buildings. There are special “low reflective” films available that can eliminate this mirror effect and allow you to maintain that special view. It’s best to seek the advice of your Professional Installer in determining what application best suites your needs.
