Tint Windows for Security and Savings

The process of window tinting homes and businesses offers increased privacy and security for occupants. It also increases insulation which results in significant energy savings. Other benefits and savings are also realized by those who decide to have tinting installed.

Privacy and Security

Homes that are close to the street, are packed together in tight rows, or even just have large windows are vulnerable. Criminals can peek into the houses to access them for valuables while planning robberies. Noisy neighbors can watch family members through upstairs windows.

Commercial buildings also benefit from increased security. Child care centers, research facilities, medical offices, family planning offices, and counseling centers are all places where privacy is paramount. The added protection of tinted windows can prevent issues and keep people safe while inside. Reducing liability is an added bonus.

The use of roller blinds can also increase privacy, but the view out is obstructed. Blinds also tend to block out all light from the sun. Tints are available in different shades so people can still enjoy the views out their windows. Compare the looks and determine which will suit the needs of family, staff, or clients.

Savings

The process of tinting is much more cost-effective than retro fitting double glazed windows into a home, but provide identical savings opportunities. The insulation lowers energy costs and blocks harmful ultraviolet rays. The tint also cuts down on sun glare, which makes working on a computer or watching television more enjoyable.

Tinting will also reduce the need for excessive amounts of cleaning supplies, and making maintenance of woods and fabrics easier. The sun fades fabrics and dries out wood, which means time-consuming polishing, covering, and protecting furniture, carpets, curtains, and even home decor. Blocking out those rays will drastically reduce the time and money spent on cleaning. It also prolongs the life of furniture and carpeting, saving money on replacement costs.

Commercial office buildings will not only save money on energy and replacement costs, but will also experience higher productivity. The effect of the sun, especially on higher floors, contributes to that after lunch slump that slows down the concentration and productivity of employees. More errors are made, problem solving skills weaken, and people get irritable.
