WHY CHOOSE SOLAR CONTROL FILM
6 Everyday Benefits for Your Home
Solar control film is about more than tinting glass. It helps make your home more comfortable, usable, and protected.

By reducing heat gain, window film can help relieve your cooling system and support better energy efficiency in sunny areas of the home.
UV Protection
LLumar solar control film blocks more than 99% of harmful UV rays that can contribute to fading and damage on furniture, floors, and fabrics.
Glare Control
Reduce harsh light on TVs, computers, tablets, and reading areas without keeping your blinds closed all day.
View Preservation

Style and Privacy Options
Choose reflective solar control films for added daytime privacy and a modern exterior appearance.
THE PROCESS
How Solar Control Film Works
Solar control film manages sunlight at the glass, helping reduce the parts of sunlight that cause heat, glare, and fading.
Sunlight Reaches the Glass
Sunlight brings visible light, infrared heat, and UV exposure through untreated windows, which can warm rooms and damage interiors.
Film Helps Manage Heat and Glare
LLumar solar films are engineered to reduce solar heat and glare so rooms feel more comfortable without fully blocking the window.
Natural Light Still Comes In
You can keep bright, welcoming rooms and outdoor views while reducing many of the uncomfortable effects of direct sunlight.
