Window film is popular for residential and business properties for a number of reasons. Many people buy their window film because the decorative styles look great, but there is so much more to love about window film than the aesthetic enhancement it offers! Read on to learn 5 benefits of residential or commercial window film.
Customize to your lifestyle needs.
Window film comes in a wide range of styles and uses. You can opt for a darker, shaded window film, or a clearer style. Each has its own pros and cons. For example, the darker film can provide the homeowner with more privacy and glare reduction, while a clearer film will complement the natural outdoor view rather than altering it.
Darker films can also have a higher degree of reflectivity, which can be good or bad depending on your personal preferences. Reflectivity keeps the sun at bay but can distort your view at night by showing a shadowed picture of your home’s interior in the pane.
